Filter by:TP-102 is a novel bacteriophage cocktail comprised of 5 (five) lytic bacteriophages against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii. TP-102 is being developed for topical treatment of patients with wound infections including chronic ulcers; applied every other day (three times weekly (TIW)).
The aim of this randomised, open-label, multicentre clinical trial is to evaluate the superiority of the treatment which foresees the addition of the system VULNOFAST® plus / VULNOLIGHT® to the Usual Care, versus the treatment with Usual Care alone, for the healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcer. VULNOFAST® plus is a sterile solution used in combination with a red light source VULNOLIGHT®. Usual Care is defined as procedures to apply to the foot ulcer, carried out in the order in which they are listed in the protocol.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of uncultured adipose derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) and cultured adipose derived stem cells (ASCs) both supplemented with platelet rich plasma (PRP) to treat chronic diabetic foot ulcers. It will increase the pragmatic potential of both types of cells as PRP is rich in survival and chemotactic factors. Moreover, the autologous nature of the proposed study will ensure safety of its use in diabetic patients and will unveil the more effective therapeutic option for treatment of foot ulcer wounds.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, safety and efficacy study of contezolid acefosamil (IV)/contezolid (PO) compared with linezolid (IV and PO) administered for a total of 14 to 28 days in adult subjects with moderate or severe DFI.
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the most common reasons for hospitalization of diabetic patients and frequently results in amputation of lower limbs. Of the one million people who undergo non-traumatic leg amputations annually worldwide, 75% are performed on people who have type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The risk of death at 10 years for a diabetic with DFU is twice as high as the risk for a patient without a DFU. The rate of amputation in patients with DFU is 38.4%4. Infection is a common (>50%) complication of DFU. Emerging evidence underscores the significant risk that biofilm infection poses to the non-healing DFU. Biofilms are estimated to account for 60% of chronic wound infections. In the biofilm form, bacteria are in a dormant metabolic state. Thus, standard clinical techniques like the colony forming unit (CFU) assay to detect infection may not detect biofilm infection. Thus, biofilm infection may be viewed as a silent maleficent threat in wound care.
This will be a prospective, open-label, two-center study to assess the safety of omadacycline use in the treatment of hospitalized subjects with moderate to severe DFI with or without Acute osteomyelitis (AOM) who are at a high risk for development of CDI, AKI, and/or resistant pathogens compared to retrospective controls. Prospective enrollment will be continued until the sample size is achieved up to one year from start date (October 2020). Secondary to slower than anticipated enrollment due to the COVID-19 pandemic and initial exclusion of AOM, following protocol amendment, patient enrollment will be continued until the sample size is achieved up to 18 months from amendment approval (anticipate April 2022 - October 2023). A historical matched case cohort (standard of care) at the two hospitals based on ICD10 codes associated with DFI [E11.(621, 622), E10.(621, 622); L97.(509, 521, 522, 523, 524, 529)], including subjects with AOM [M86.(08-09, 10, 16-19, 8X0, 8X7-8X9, 9) will be utilized for comparison.
It is hypothesized that application at 4-week or greater intervals of the human placental umbilical cord tissue TTAX01 to the surface of a well debrided, complex diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) will, with concomitant management of infection, result in a higher rate of wounds showing complete healing within 25 weeks of initiating therapy, compared with standard care alone. This second confirmatory Phase 3 study examines a population of diabetic foot ulcer patients having adequate perfusion, with or without neuropathy, and a high suspicion of associated osteomyelitis in a complex, high grade wound.
Patients who are admitted to hospital with serious infections, such as those in bone, joints or spine, require a long course of intravenous (IV) antibiotics. After an initial treatment course in hospital or through a dedicated outpatient antibiotic program many patients can complete their treatment course at home. Such infections are often caused by bacteria called Staphylococci, and currently there are three antibiotic options used routinely. A fourth antibiotic, ceftriaxone, is a promising alternative; it is also effective against Staphylococci, and is more convenient, less costly and easier to give at home, however, it has not been studied thoroughly in a prospective manner. This study will compare ceftriaxone to routinely used antibiotics (cloxacillin, cefazolin or daptomycin) to see if ceftriaxone is equally as safe and efficacious in curing deep-seated Staphylococcal infections in patients receiving home IV antibiotics. Patients with deep-seated infections caused by methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) or coagulase-negative Staphylococcal species will be randomly assigned home IV treatment with ceftriaxone OR one of the three other antibiotics before leaving the hospital. Patients will then receive usual care from an Infectious Disease physician and Home IV team. The study team will assess whether cure has been achieved by the end of the IV treatment, follow-up at 6 months to see if patients remain infection-free, and record any side-effects of treatment. The overall goal is to determine whether ceftriaxone can be considered non-inferior to usual antibiotic treatment in treating Staphylococcal infections in a home IV setting.
Diabetic foot problems, especially infections (DFI), require multiple resources including iterative surgeries and amputations, long-lasting antibiotic therapies, education, off-loading and eventually revascularization and appropriate foot-ware. Treatment is complicated, multidisciplinary, and marked with a high risk of recurrences. This is a retrospective and prospective cohort with side studies of pathologies and academic research questions that cannot be separated from each other. The investigators establish a retro-and prospective cohort of diabetic foot problems (ambulatory and hospitalized patients) and perform side studies to reduce the incidence of complications, and to reduce recurrences of DFI, cost and adverse events related to therapies. Cohort: Prospective and retrospective cohort of all diabetic foot problems with emphasis on surgical and infectious variables. Trial 1 (Randomized trial on residual infection after amputation): Determination of the level of amputation per MRI followed by a randomization concerning the duration of post-amputation systemic antibiotic therapy, if there is residual bone infection. Trial 2 (Randomized trial on infection without amputation): Determination of the duration of systemic antibiotic therapy in diabetic foot infections without Amputation of the infection.
This study will establish whether human and bacterial protease activity can aid therapeutic decision-making, including targeted treatments.
