NCT ID: NCT00545298 Terminated - Venous Ulcers Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of Gaseous Nitric Oxide on Venous Stasis Leg Ulcers

Start date: October 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will test the safety and efficacy of nitric oxide gas in the treatment of venous leg ulcers

NCT ID: NCT00446823 Completed - Venous Ulcer Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of XCell on Autolytic Debridement of Venous Ulcers

XCell
Start date: June 2002
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the effect of XCell cellulose wound dressing for its ability to naturally (autolytically) remove nonviable tissue and create a healthy vascular wound bed. Results will compare venous ulcers treated with Xylos XCell cellulose dressing plus standard care to those treated with standard care alone. The hypothesis is that XCell will demonstrate more autolytic debridement than the standard of care.

NCT ID: NCT00338923 Completed - Diabetic Foot Ulcer Clinical Trials

Wound Healing Effects of HO/03/03 In Patients With Diabetic Neuropathic Plantar and Venous Ulcers, Pilot Study.

Start date: June 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is a multicenter pilot study to assess the healing effects of HO/03/03 on diabetic neuropathic plantar and venous ulcers. HO/03/03 action mechanism involves the manipulation of keratinocyte and fibroblast migration and differentiation at the wound area. - The primary end point of this study is assessment of safety in treating with HO/03/03 and the efficacy of the drug to promote wound closure of chronic wounds. - The secondary end points are assessment time to closure and healing rate for the measurement of wound healing progression.

NCT ID: NCT00301496 Completed - Venous Ulcer Clinical Trials

Randomized Controlled 8-Week Crossover Evaluation of Compression Bandage Systems for Venous Leg Ulcers

Start date: March 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new 2-layer compression bandage for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.

NCT ID: NCT00273234 Withdrawn - Venous Ulcer Clinical Trials

Clinical Effectiveness of Topical Autologous Platelet Gel for the Treatment of Venous Ulcers

Start date: January 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of standard venous ulcer care to standard venous ulcer care plus a cell based product made from the patients own blood. This product, Autologous Platelet Concentrate (APC), is a concentrate of cells in the bloodstream called platelets.

NCT ID: NCT00270946 Completed - Venous Leg Ulcer Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Bilayered Cellular Matrix (OrCel) for the Treatment of Venous Ulcers

Start date: April 2002
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study was designed to evaluate the clinical benefits and safety of OrCel in the treatment of venous ulcers. OrCel and standard care were compared to standard care alone. Standard care consisted of currently accepted compression therapy. Patients were treated for 12 weeks. Patients with healed ulcers were followed for an additional 12 weeks to assess durability of the healed wound.

NCT ID: NCT00207818 Completed - Venous Ulcers Clinical Trials

Treatment of Cutaneous Ulcers With a Novel Biological Dressing

Start date: September 1999
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of a biological dressing on the healing process of venous ulcers. The dressing is a reconstructed skin substitute made with the patients own cells.

NCT ID: NCT00202267 Completed - Venous Ulcer Clinical Trials

Community RCT of the Effectiveness of Two Compression Bandaging Technologies

Start date: January 2004
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Leg ulcers are emotionally distressing and painful, and often require months or years to heal. Although rarely acknowledged as a pressing health care issue, leg ulcers comprise a common, complex, and costly condition, managed primarily through community home care services. Indeed, leg ulcers are the most frequently seen and treated chronic wound. There is consensus in recent international, evidence-based practice guidelines that graduated, multi-layer compression is the most effective treatment, and greatly reduces healing time. High compression is more effective than low compression. However, there is no clear evidence as to which high compression technology is the most effective in promoting healing, the most acceptable to patients, or the most cost-effective to the health care system. This study is designed to answer these questions through a randomized trial conducted in the community, where most leg ulcer care currently takes place. Issues such as effectiveness in healing, quality of life, physical discomfort, personal preference, cost to the system and to the individual will be taken into consideration in evaluating two most commonly used types of compression bandaging.
