About this study

Official title: Clinical Trial Phase I-II of Efficacy and Safety of Snail Slime and Natural Extracts for Healing in Diabetic Foot Ulcers

The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the use of a formulation of snail slime and natural extracts, for the curative treatment of ulcer wonds in diabetic foot.

The secondary objetives:

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of the use of a formulation of snail slime Helix aspersa Müller and natural extracts (MU001) for the curative treatment of ulcer wonds in diabetic foot with respect to the standard of care, by means the application of patchs that containing the formulation in a treatment period of until 60 days.
  2. To determine the safety of the use of a formulation of snail slime Helix aspersa Müller and natural extracts (MU001) in diabetic individuals in a treatment period of until 60 days.
Read the detailed description

Clinical Study of phase I-II, controlled, simple blind (in relation with biostatistical analysis), randomized, of formulation that containing snail slime Helix aspersa Müller (Cryptophalus aspersus), natural calendula extract, propolis and excipients (MU001).

The formulation in study MU001 wil be added to the standard of care for healing in diabetic foot indicated. The period of recruitment estimated will be 4 month and the follow-up of the patients will be of until 60 days.

Being tested
MU001 patches (Investigational), Conventional patches (Control)
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MU001 patches (Investigational)Drug

    Also called MU001 patches

  • Conventional patches (Control)Device

    Also called Conventional patches for diabetic foot ulcers

    Patches containing conventional formulations in medical devices for ulcers (hydrocolloids, activated charcoal silver, alginate, carboxymethylcellulose or hydrogel).

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence rate of healing until 60 days or less

    Incidence of healing measured with Wagner ulcer classification

    Measured: 60 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time to healing until 60 days or less

    Time to healing measured with Wagner ulcer classification

    Measured: 60 days

  2. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (Safety and Tolerability) of a formulation of snail slime and natural extracts in healthy skin

    Numbers and types of adverse events in healthy skin of subjects treated with investigational formulation (MU001)

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (Safety and Tolerability) of a formulation of snail slime and natural extracts in ulcer wounds in diabetics foot

    Numbers and types of adverse events in ulcers of subjects treated with investigational formulation (MU001)

    Measured: 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MU001 patches (Investigational) in people with Diabetic Foot Ulcer, run by University of Chile at 4 sites in Chile.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Chile. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

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?

Incidence rate of healing until 60 days or less (time frame: 60 days). 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 30 May 2017.
