Filter by:the objective of this investigation is to demonstrate the effect of the foam dressing Biatain Ag, compared to Biatain foam dressing( a product which is similar but does not contain a silver complex, in the healing of leg ulcers that had failed to heal despite appropriate therapy
This study is a double-blind, one center, two-arm study with a two (2) week Run-In, evaluating the efficacy of a once-daily administration of NanoDOX™ Hydrogel topically applied to diabetic ulcers in concert with professionally administered Standard of Care (SOC) procedures as described by Standard Operating Procedure(s) of the Department of Veterans Administration Hospitals. During the run-in period patients with infected wounds will receive oral antibiotic and not be included in the topical portion of the study until the infection is shown by wound fluid analysis to be resolved. Following a two (2) week Run-In of all patients to receive SOC treatment for diabetic ulcers, patients would have either the investigational material or the placebo hydrogel applied as a part of their wound care. Each patient would receive 1.5 gm packets of either the test article or the placebo hydrogel for a once-daily home treatment accompanied by a dressing change.
The objective of this study protocol is to use wound biopsies that have been obtained during standard of care management for further scientific evaluation after standard evaluation by a pathologist. Further imaging and molecular analyses would closely evaluate the presence, architecture, and interaction of wound biofilm and human host tissues.
The purpose of the potential research study participant registry is to keep potential research subjects informed about any future research studies in which they may meet the criteria for enrollment. The purpose of this study is also to assist current and future clinical trials with recruitment of subjects.
Primary aim of the study : to evaluate the prevalence of ulcerated cutaneous carcinoma or malignant degeneration, in leg ulcers, presumed of vascular origin and without evidence of healing despite 3 months of adequate treatmentSecondary aims of the study : to evaluate the interest of immunostainings for desmogleins 1-2 and p16 on biopsies to differentiate between pseudo epitheliomatous hyperplasia and squamous cell carcinoma ; and the prognosis of diagnosed carcinomas at 12 monthsStudy hypothesis : systematic biopsies of hard-to-heal leg ulcer may help to detect ulcerated carcinomas misdiagnosed as vascular ulcer or malignant degeneration of leg ulcer.
To test safety and efficacy of Bacteriophage on Venous Leg Ulcers.
Compare Autologous Platelet Enriched Gel versus Metalloproteinase Inhibitor in the healing of chronic lower leg ulcers.
The objective of this open label extension study (extension to study DK143WS) is to evaluate the safety of Biatain Ibu during 6 -12 weeks of exposure and during a 40 - 46 weeks safety follow-up period.
The study purpose is to compare healing rates, cost effectiveness, quality of life and safety of 12 week compression therapy for the treatment of venous leg ulcers with the 3M™ Coban™ 2 Layer Compression System versus short-stretch compression bandage.
To explore the hypothesis that leg ulcers are associated with hypercoagulable states, the CLUE study will evaluate patients with connective tissue disease associated leg ulcers, to identify risk factors (especially hypercoagulability and immunologic characteristics), characterize pathogenesis, predict response to therapy, and assess the impact of lower extremity ulcers on quality of life.
