Clinical Trial Summary

Purpose and significance:With the increasing incidence of Diabetes mellitus (DM), the incidence rate of Diabetic Foot (DF) is raised. DF is a foot infection, ulceration and / or deep tissue destruction caused by nerve abnormalities and varying degrees of vascular lesions in DM patients. The high incidence, disability and mortality rate of DF make it urgent to explore new ways to improve the cure rate, reduce the burden and elevate the quality of life. Previous studies have confirmed that traditional Miao ethic medicine Tangningtongluo(TNTL) can improve the remission rate of diabetes mellitus and diabetic foot disease, but the clinical research evidence is not sufficient. This study aims to provide effective clinical evidence for the treatment of diabetic foot patients with TNTL by observing growth rate of wound, prognosis and outcome. Methods: From September 2021 to March 2023, a total of 80 diabetic foot ulcer patients admitted to Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism at the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University were recruited. Participants are randomized in a ratio of 1: 1: 1:1 into four treatment groups of 20 participants: (i) standardized western medicine treatment group, (ii) standardized western medicine treatment+TNTL tablet+TNTL cream group , (iii) standardized western medicine treatment+TNTL tablet group, and (iiii) standardized western medicine treatment+TNTL cream group. Treatment with TNTL tablets: the oral administration of TNTL tablets, 4 tablets each time, 3 times a day. Treatment with TNTL cream: topical application of sterile TNTL cream on the wound surface, the dressing is continuously changed according to the wound healing. Anthropometric parameters, serum biochemical index, glycosylated hemoglobin, urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio, islet-specific autoantibodies(ISAs), fat mass, and islet β-cell function were measured. The healing stage of the wound surface and the growth degree of granulation tissue were graded, and the time required for wound repairing to each healing stage was observed. Type of study: randomized controlled, prospective,intervention study.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Decrease area of wound healing due to Diabetic Foot Ulcer Assessment the decrease of whole area of diabetic foot ulcers. The unit is square centimeters . 12 weeks
Primary Decrease of depth of ulcer involve the deep fascia. Measurement of depth of ulcer involve the deep fascia. The unit is millimeters. 12 weeks
Primary Amputation Rate The difference of end-stage amputation rates between the experimental group and the control group were evaluated by the arterial and venous blood circulation of the lower limbs 12 weeks
Primary Diabetic Foot Ulcer relapse rate The relapse of Diabetic Foot Ulcers is a common complication in the advanced stage of DFU. The difference of treatment between the experimental group and the control group indicates that the prognosis is variability. 12 weeks
Secondary Fasting glucose 10 hours after fasting peripheral blood glucose level, and the unit is mmol/L 12 weeks
Secondary 2-H postload glucose 2 hours after peripheral blood glucose level eating 75g glucose or 100g steamed bread, and the unit is mmol/L 12 weeks
Secondary BMI Index The calculation formula of Body Mass Index is: BMI = weight ÷ height 2. (weight in kilograms; height in meters.) 12 weeks
Secondary WHR Index Waist to hip ratio (WHR) = waist / hip.Waist circumference or minimum waist circumference shall be used for measurement, and evaluation of WHR is an important value to central obesity. 12 weeks
Secondary Islet B cell function The ability of islet B cells to secrete insulin was reflected by the level of C peptide, which is measured after fasting. The unit is ng/dL . 12 weeks
Secondary interleukin-6(IL-6) Determine the level of interleukin-6(IL-6) in peripheral blood by ELISA, the unit is ng/L. 12 weeks
Secondary tumour necrosis factor-a(TNF-a) Determine the level of TNF-a in peripheral blood , the unit is ng/ml. 12 weeks
