What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of 100% wound closure during the 8-week study

    Measured: subjects will be followed during their participation in the study for an average of 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety endpoint

    determined by wound score, area of the wound, and the assessment of wound effluent cytokine, chemokine, protease, and patient reported pain and quality of life questionnaires

    Measured: subjects will be followed during their participatoni in the study for an average of 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing NanoDOX 1% doxycycline monohydrate Hydrogel in people with Dehisced Surgical Wounds, run by NanoSHIFT LLC at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 18 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.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

The rate of 100% wound closure during the 8-week study (time frame: subjects will be followed during their participation in the study for an average of 8 weeks). 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 13 Mar 2017.
