About this study
Official title: A Phase 3 Randomized, Double Blind, Vehicle Controlled Study Investigating the Safety and Efficacy of HP802-247 in the Treatment of Venous Leg Ulcers
This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This research is being done to compare the efficacy of HP802-247 plus compression therapy against Vehicle plus compression therapy in achieving complete wound closure over the 12-week treatment period. Vehicle looks the same as HP802-247 but contains no cells.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Compare the Treatment Groups for the Proportion of Subjects With Complete Wound Closure Over the 12-Week Treatment Period From Baseline
For each treatment group the area of each subject's target ulcer was measured on a weekly basis, for up to 12 weeks, using a laser-based wound imaging system in conjunction with software to measure area. Following initial closure subjects returned for four weekly visits to confirm wound closure. Wounds that remained closed for four weeks were classified as confirmed closures; if a wound opened at any of the 4 visits it was not considered to have closed. For subjects who dropped from the study, their remaining visit values were imputed using LOCF; wound status of closed was not imputed.
Measured: 12 Weeks
Secondary outcomes (6)
Compare the Efficacy of the Treatment Groups in Achieving Complete Wound Closure, Based on Time in Days to Closure Over the 12-Week Treatment Period From Baseline.
This key secondary outcome was based on a Cox Proportional Hazard Analysis and a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.
Measured: 12 Weeks
Compare the Treatment Groups for the Percentage of Closed Ulcers at Each Visit of the 12-Week Treatment Period From Baseline
Treatment groups were compared for the proportion of wounds closed at each weekly visit. For subjects who dropped from the study, their remaining visit values were imputed using LOCF.
Measured: Weekly, over the 12 week treatment period, or until wound closure, which ever occurred first
Number of Subjects With Durable Wound Healing Over the 3 Months Following Complete Wound Closure
Subjects who completed the treatment period with confirmed wound closure were followed in the post-treatment period for a further two months to determine their closed wound status (remained closed/reopened), giving a measure of persistence of wound closure following completion of treatment.
Measured: Target ulcer status observed at two and three months following initial ulcer closure.
Change in Pain Associated With the Target Leg at Each of the 12 Double Blind Treatment Weeks
Target leg pain were measured using a Visual Analog Scale [Range: 0mm - 100mm]. Subjects marked their pain level on a 100 mm horizontal line, with a short vertical line across the scale, 0 denoting no pain and 100mm the maximum pain.
Measured: Weekly, over the 12 week treatment period, baseline
Change in Target Ulcer Pain
Target ulcer pain were measured using a Visual Analog Scale [Range: 0mm - 100mm]. Subjects marked their pain level on a 100 mm horizontal line, with a short vertical line across the scale, 0 denoting no pain and 100mm the maximum pain.
Measured: Weekly, over 12 week treament period, baseline
Compare the Efficacy of the Treatment Groups in Achieving Complete Wound Closure, Based on the Median Time (in Days) to Closure Over the 12-Week Treatment Period From Baseline.
This key secondary outcome was based on a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.
Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing HP-802-247 in people with Venous Leg Ulcers, run by Healthpoint at 50 sites in 2 countries.
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 9 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 50 sites in United States, Canada. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Mar 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Compare the Treatment Groups for the Proportion of Subjects With Complete Wound Closure Over the 12-Week Treatment Period From Baseline (time frame: 12 Weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01656889, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 14 Mar 2016.
