Filter by:A PHASE 2a, MULTI-CENTER, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED DOSE ESCALATING STUDY TO EVALUATE THE SAFETY AND TOLERABILITY OF TOPICALLY APPLIED BISPHOSPHOCIN NU-3 GEL TO CLINICALLY NONINFECTED CHRONIC DIABETIC FOOT ULCERS (cDFU)
The primary efficacy endpoint for this study is the proportion of subjects with complete closure of Target Ulcer during the 20-week Treatment Phase, which is assessed by the blinded independent evaluator.
A Randomized Controlled Multicenter Clinical Trial, Evaluating the Efficacy of Dual Layer Amniotic Membrane (Artacent®) and Standard of Care versus Standard of Care alone in the healing Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers. Multi-center, open label, randomized controlled trial. Study is estimated to require 12 months from first subject enrolled to last subject visit.
One in four Veterans is affected by diabetes and will develop a diabetic foot ulcer. Diabetic ulcers are very challenging to manage and are the most common cause of leg amputation. Many advanced treatments are expensive and difficult to use in the clinic or at home. Those newer therapies have shown little success in healing diabetic foot wounds. The investigators' laboratory and animal work has suggested that a safe medication, currently used as an eye drop for treatment of glaucoma, can heal these ulcers. The investigators are proposing to test this drop (timolol) directly on the surface of the foot ulcer to see if can improve healing faster than the current standard of care. To do this, the investigators propose a "randomized controlled trial" with two groups of patients with diabetic foot ulcers: one will receive standard of care with timolol while the other will receive standard of care with a gel (hydrogel, as placebo medicine).
A Multicenter, Randomized, Single-Blind Study with an Open-Label Extension Option to Further Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Cryopreserved Human Amniotic Membrane for the Treatment of Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of auricular autonomous nervous system stimulation on vital parameters of wound healing in diabetics. It is investigated if auricular vagal nerve stimulation has an effect on heart rate variability as well as peripheral local blood perfusion, and if this effect depends on the health status of the study participants (diseased/healthy).
Extracorporeal Shock Wave treatment is a well established treatment in orthopedics. Considerable success has been reported after treatment of various soft tissue pathologies (Tendinitis, heel spur etc). In recent years, encouraging results have been reported concerning the effect of the shock-wave on chronic wounds. It has been reported that healing time can be considerably shortened if shock-waves are applied to the wound in addition to conventional wound treatment. Yet, randomized, controlled, prospective trials are missing. In this study, the effect of shock-waves on diabetic foot ulcer shall be assessed. The study is composed of 5 groups of which 4 groups receive shock wave treatments (each with a different protocol). One group serves as an untreated control group. All groups get standardized wound treatment and wound dressing. That shock-wave application protocol that shows the best results (rate of completely healed ulcer, most decrease of ulcer size) shall be tested in a further, sufficiently dimensioned, two-armed, randomized controlled trial (RCT).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the application of soluble beta-glucan (SBG) onto diabetic foot ulcers improves the healing of the ulcers.
The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of shockwave treatment combined with standard-of-care treatment, to standard-of-care treatment alone to induce healing of a chronic plantar foot ulcer in subjects with diabetes mellitus. For the purpose of this study, the definition of plantar foot ulcer is a wound or open sore that involves the plantar(bottom) aspect of the foot, and the definition of chronic is a duration of 6 weeks or greater with a lack of response to treatment.
