Trial summary

Osteomyelitis is a frequent complication of diabetic foot ulcer. Several therapeutic strategies are used : medical treatment with antibiotics and foot offloading or surgical treatment consisting in the resection of infected bone and a shorter antibiotic course. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Medical and Medical-surgical Management of Diabetic Foot Osteomyelitis

Osteomyelitis is a frequent complication of diabetic foot ulcer. Several therapeutic strategies are used : medical treatment with antibiotics and foot offloading or surgical treatment consisting in the resection of infected bone and a shorter antibiotic course. The medical treatment risk is a longer healing time and a risk of bone infection relapse. The surgical treatment risk is the ulcer relapse because of the modification of the foot structure. These treatments need to be compared in terms of benefit/risk ratio. Our hypothesis is : 1) in the medical treatment group a 7 month mean healing time of and a 15% osteomyelitis recurrence rate;2) in the medical-surgical treatment group a 4 month mean healing time and a 10% osteomyelitis recurrence rate.

Read the detailed description

The study aim is to compare the rate of therapeutic success of the secondary ostéite with a wound of the foot diabetic, obtained either by a single medical coverage(care), or by a medical surgical coverage(care). The therapeutic success being defined by the association of 1) the absence of local distribution(broadcasting) of the ostéite 2) the healing of the wound 3) in 12 months of the healing the absence of local recurrence of the ostéite

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. no osteomyelitis spreading and wound healing and no osteomyelitis relapse 12 months after wound healing

    Measured: 12 months after healing

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. amputation rate

    Measured: before healing

  2. healing time

    Measured: end of study

  3. ulcer relapse 12 months after healing

    Measured: 12 months after healing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Medical/surgical treatment versus medical treatment in people with Diabetic Foot, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

no osteomyelitis spreading and wound healing and no osteomyelitis relapse 12 months after wound healing (time frame: 12 months after healing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Sep 2012.
