  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject must be at least 18 years of age.
  • Subject has a Stage II-IV pressure ulcer located in the gluteal, ischial, hip, sacral, coccygeal, and trochanteric, malleolus, or heel area.
  • Pressure ulcer should be present for 4 weeks duration and have a ulcer surface area > 2cm2
  • If multiple ulcers are present, one ulcer must be identified as the index ulcer.
  • The index ulcer is free from active infection at the time of randomization.
  • Willingness to off-load or pressure redistribute ulcer for duration of enrollment
Show all 10Show fewer
  • The index ulcer has been offloaded for at least 7 days prior to randomization.
  • The index ulcer must have been present for at least 30 days at time of study enrollment.
  • The index ulcer is separated at least 4 cm from all other ulcers at Study Day -7 and Study Day 0 (post-debridement) and has a margin of intact skin sufficient for anchoring of the required study dressing.
  • Subject has read and signed the IRB/IEC approved Informed Consent Form (ICF) before screening procedures are undertaken.

Who cannot join

  • Presence of signs and symptoms of infection at the index ulcer site, including but not limited to cellulitis, acute osteomyelitis, excessive exudate, gangrene or deep tissue infection
  • The index ulcer is not free of necrotic tissue and is unable to tolerate debridement
  • Non-enteric or unexplored sinus tract
  • Concomitant conditions that in the judgment of the investigator would make the subject inappropriate for entry to the study

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Study Of PuraPly® AM and Standard of Care (SOC) Compared to SOC Alone For The Management Of Stage II-IV Pressure Ulcers

This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled clinical study Of PuraPly® AM and standard of care (SOC) compared to SOC alone for the management of Stage II-IV pressure ulcers located in the gluteal, ischial, hip, sacral, coccygeal, and trochanteric, malleolus, or heel area.

Read the detailed description

This study seeks to demonstrate how PuraPly® AM performs against standard of care in Stage II-IV Pressure Ulcers through a prospective randomized controlled study design.

Subjects may be enrolled for up to 24 weeks; if healing occurs prior to week 24, a follow up healing confirmation visit shall occur two weeks later to confirm maintenance of complete wound closure and participation may continue up to 24 weeks. Subjects that are randomized to the SOC group have the opportunity to cross over and receive PuraPly AM at week 12 if their index ulcer has not healed; they will then be followed for an additional 12 weeks for up to 24 weeks.

What participants receive

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

  • PuraPly® Antimicrobial Wound MatrixDevice

    Also called PuraPly® AM

    PuraPly® AM is a class II medical device, that has been 510(k) cleared by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (K051647) and is intended for the management of acute and chronic wound management across a variety of wound types, including partial- and full-thickness wounds, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, trauma wounds, venous and diabetic ulcers.

  • SOC for Pressure UlcersOther

    SOC group will receive institutional standard of care which includes, but is not limited to, debridement, negative pressure wound therapy (i.e. VAC), ensuring perfusion and oxygenation, evaluating nutritional status and addressing deficits, offloading, keeping the ulcer bed moist with appropriate cleansing at the time of each dressing change. Standard dressings may include hydrocolloids, alginates, transparent film, foam, moist gauze dressings. In addition, a non-toxic topical antiseptic, may be used per NPUAP Clinical Practice Guidelines (2014) for SOC group only, if colonization is suspected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction in size of ulcer area between groups

    As measured from change in size from baseline

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  2. Improvement in wound bed condition between groups

    As measured from change in status from baseline

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time to complete wound closure between both groups

    As measured by time to complete wound closure from baseline

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  2. Improvement in patient reported pain

    As measured change in status from baseline as assessed by the PAIN visual analogue scale (PAIN-VAS)

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  3. Improvement in patient reported quality of life

    As measured by change in status from baseline as assessed by the Wound QoL (W-QoL), questionnaire on quality of life with chronic wounds

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PuraPly® Antimicrobial Wound Matrix and SOC for Pressure Ulcers in people with Chronic Pressure Ulcers, run by Organogenesis at 2 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 10 inclusion and 6 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 22 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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. 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 stopped early (reason given: slow enrollment). 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?

Reduction in size of ulcer area between groups (time frame: Up to 24 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Sep 2021.
