About this study

Official title: Multi-Center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Trial, Comparing the Safety and Efficacy of ActiGraft Pro™ to Standard of Care in Patients With Chronic Neuropathic Diabetic Foot Ulcers

  • The study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, controlled, single blinded clinical study consisting of 150 subjects from up to 20 centers.
  • The subjects are randomized to receive 1 of 2 treatments, either with ActiGraft and standard of care (SOC) or with SOC alone.
  • The target ulcers are evaluated weekly by the investigator. The subject is treated once a week, to receive weekly applications of the ActiGraft + SOC or SOC until for up to 12 weeks or until the study ulcer has completely healed (i.e., 100% closure as assessed by the Investigator and blinded assessor and confirmed 2 weeks later at the healing confirmation visit (HCV). One additional visit per week is optional for both arms, for the purpose of changing only (1) the secondary dressing in the ActiGraft arm or (2) change the standard of care dressing in the control arm.
  • Immediately after the study ulcer is confirmed as completely healed, subjects will enter the 12-week Follow-up Phase. During the Follow-Up phase, subjects will be evaluated twice during the first month and then monthly for two additional visits every 4 weeks until the completion of the 12-week Follow-up Phase.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of complete wound closure by 12 weeks

    Incidence of complete wound closure by 12 weeks using chi square (two-sided; alpha set at .05 level of significance), or Fischer exact test if one group has ≤ 5 completely closed wounds. Analysis will be adjusted using generalized linear modeling (logit function).

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Time to complete wound closure

    Time to complete wound closure using Cox regression

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Percent area reduction (PAR)

    Percent area reduction (PAR) at 4 and 8 weeks.

    Measured: 4 weeks and 8 weeks

  3. Nature, frequency, and severity of adverse events in the intent to treat population

    Nature, frequency, and severity (by CTCAE5) of adverse events

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Number of patients showing a consistence wound closure post healing determination

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ActiGraft in people with Diabetic Foot and Chronic Ulcer, run by RedDress Ltd. at 16 sites in 3 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 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United States, South Africa, Turkey (Türkiye). 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 of complete wound closure by 12 weeks (time frame: 12 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 14 May 2024.
