Tests treatment safety and results for Diabetic Foot Ulcer
Official title Evaluating the Efficacy of Perinatal Membrane Allografts in Addition to the Standard of Care for the Treatment of Non-healing Diabetic Foot Ulcers.
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06437028
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using perinatal tissue allografts improves healing of chronic, non-healing foot ulcers in diabetic patients. The main question that this study aims to answer is: Does the use of perinatal tissue allografts in conjunction with standard of care wound management techniques result in a higher percentage of target ulcers achieving complete closure (i.e.

- The potential subject must consent to using the prescribed offloading method for the duration of the study.
- The potential subject must agree to attend the weekly study visits required by the protocol.
