Filter by:This is a prospective, single centre, randomised controlled, feasibility study recruiting patients with lower limb venous ulceration and Great Saphenous incompetence. Patients will be randomised to undergo either truncal ablation and compression therapy or truncal ablation, simultaneous iliac interrogation with intravascular ultrasound and stenting of significant (>50%) iliac vein lesions plus compression therapy. The primary endpoints will be ulcer healing and procedural safety. Secondary endpoints include time to healing, quality of life and clinical scores, ulcer recurrence rates and rates of post-thrombotic syndrome. Follow up will be over a five-year period. This feasibility study is designed to include 60 patients. Should it be practicable a total of 594 patients would be required to adequately power the study to definitively address ulcer-healing rates.
A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Open-Label Study with a Crossover Extension Option to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of GrafixPL for the Treatment of Chronic VLUs
The goal of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of Cutimed Sorbact (Study Device) in modifying bacterial load in venous leg ulcers (VLU).
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of KLOX BioPhotonic System (composed of KLOX LumiHeal Gel and KT-L Lamp) on the expression of wound biomarkers in the treatment of venous leg ulcers (VLU). Patients will be randomized in three groups, two different dispensing schedules of KLOX BioPhotonic System in addition to Standard of Care (SOC) will be used, and SOC alone.
This study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DermACELL in subjects with a single target chronic venous leg ulcer (VLU).
This study is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, placebo controlled, adaptive design study performed to assess the safety and the efficacy of 5% EscharEx (EX-02) compared to Gel Vehicle (placebo) and non-surgical standard of care (NSSOC), in debridement of Venous Leg Ulcers (VLU) (in a ratio of 2:2:1) in debridement of VLU. The main objective of this study is: To assess the safety and the efficacy of EscharEx (EX-02 formulation) compared to Gel Vehicle (placebo) and non-surgical standard of care (NSSOC), in debridement of Venous Leg Ulcers (VLU). 120 randomized adult patients with VLU that fail to heal for 4 weeks to 2 years, and with >50% non-viable tissue (necrotic/slough/fibrin) on the VLU. The maximum number of patients to be enrolled is 160. The total duration of the study of each participating subject is up to 17 weeks: screening (1 week) + Daily visit period (up to 2 weeks) + Twice-weekly visits period (2 weeks) + Weekly visits period (10 weeks) + closure confirmation (up to 2 weeks, if applicable). Each patient will go through 4 periods during the trial: 1. Screening period (2 visits, 7 [+2] days apart). Including: recording demographics, medical history and concomitant medications, vital signs, physical examination, clinical laboratory tests, wound photography and assessments and questionnaires (pain, wound status and QoL). During this period, wounds will be treated by standard treatment (e.g. appropriate dressing, compression bandage) per investigator discretion, with the exclusion of mechanical and surgical debridement. During the one week screening period, patients whose wound size (surface area, as measured by eKare inSightTM) decreases by more than 20 percent will be excluded. 2. Daily visits period (up to 8 daily site visits within up to 14 days): During the Daily visit period, the patient will arrive daily to site visits. During each visit, adverse events, concomitant medication, vital signs and pain will be recorded, the wound will be washed, photographed and assessed for wound size (by eKare inSightTM), % of non viable tissue (by clinical assessment), and wound healing status (assessed clinically). Eligible patients will be randomized into one of the study arms: EX-02, or Gel Vehicle (Placebo), or NSSOC in a 2:2:1 ratio. Patients will be treated with up to 8 daily 24±3 hours applications or until complete debridement is achieved, whichever occurs first. On the weekends between treatments of EX-02 or Gel material, the wound will be dressed with a compatible dressing, and by compression therapy. Patients treated with NSSOC continue using NSSOC during the weekend according to label or instructions for use, and compression therapy. 3. Twice-weekly visits period (4 visits within 14 days): the patients will be followed twice weekly for two weeks, (4 visits within 14 days). During each visit, safety parameters will be recorded (AEs, concomitant medications, pain, vital signs), the wound will be washed, photographed and assessed for wound size (by eKare inSightTM), % of nonviable tissue (by clinical assessment), and wound healing status (assessed clinically). The investigator will clinically assess complete debridement, upon achieving a viable wound bed after removal of all non-viable tissue, suitable for initiation of the wound healing stage. 4. Weekly visits period (up to10 visits within up to 10 weeks): patients will be followed once weekly for 10 weeks or until complete wound closure was achieved, (up to10 visits within up to 10 weeks). During each weekly visit, safety parameters will be recorded (AEs, concomitant medications, pain, vital signs), the wound will be washed, photographed and assessed for wound size (by eKare inSightTM), % of nonviable tissue (by clinical assessment), and wound healing status (assessed clinically). The investigator will clinically assess complete debridement, upon achieving a viable wound bed after removal of all non-viable tissue, suitable for initiation of the wound healing stage. Complete wound closure defined as skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements confirmed at two consecutive study visits, 2 weeks apart will be assessed clinically. Thus, if closure occurs close to the end of weekly visit period, i.e. on 9th or 10th visit of the weekly period, an additional confirmation visit will be performed 2 weeks later.
This study in venous leg ulcer (VLU) patients will evaluate the use of Cirvo™ therapy for the treatment of VLU when applied for a minimum of two hours daily for up to 12 weeks.
Approximately 200 patients (100 in each treatment group) nationally with chronic venous leg ulcers will be randomized to GrafixPL™PRIME plus standard compression therapy or standard compression therapy alone for up to 12 weeks in order to compare the clinical outcomes between the two groups. Specifically, at this Georgetown site, approximately 30 subjects will be recruited.
Pilot study of a soft, flexible pressure and temperature sensor
This study is being conducted to determine how the PICO™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy compares to standard care treatment for venous stasis ulcers, as there is no evidence to date.
