About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Vehicle-controlled Phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of DSC127 in Treating Non-healing Foot Ulcers in Subjects With Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of the study is to determine if DSC127 is effective in increasing incidence of complete wound closure at 10 weeks confirmed at a visit 2 weeks later when compared to the vehicle (gel without active ingredient) in subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) who have chronic Wagner Grade 1 or 2 plantar neuropathic foot ulcers, 0.75 - 6 cm2 in size.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will undergo a two week screening period to assess plantar ulcer healing, and those healing less than 30% will be eligible for randomization, providing they meet all other inclusion criteria. Four weeks of blinded "treatment" follows the screening period, and an observation period of six weeks (to 10 weeks post first treatment) follows the 4-week treatment period. If the ulcer closes during the treatment or observation period, the closure will be confirmed two weeks later, and at this time the subject enters a durability assessment period of up to 12 weeks.

All aspects of Standard of Care are followed throughout the study period.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of subjects with a target ulcer which achieves complete wound closure (skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements) up to 10 weeks (confirmed at a study visit 2 weeks later).

    Primary endpoint of complete closure is assessed by the Principal Investigator at the site; ulcer measurements are calculated through tracings submitted to the Canfield system and photographs are collected as confirmation of closure via the Canfield system.

    Measured: Target ulcer must achieve complete wound closure by 10 weeks post first treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Time to the visit where the target ulcer achieves confirmed complete wound closure

    Measured: Weekly assessments to ten weeks post first treatment dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing DSC127 in people with Diabetic Foot Ulcers, run by Integra LifeSciences Corporation at 25 sites 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 16 inclusion and 16 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites 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.

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?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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 proportion of subjects with a target ulcer which achieves complete wound closure (skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements) up to 10 weeks (confirmed at a study visit 2 weeks later). (time frame: Target ulcer must achieve complete wound closure by 10 weeks post first treatment). 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 12 Dec 2017.
