What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that the HM242-Gel performs at least comparably to INTRASITE Gel with regard to wound healing.

    The primary variable is defined as the relative reduction of the wound area of a patient in percentage 28 days (4 weeks) after baseline. The wound size area is measured on site by the tracing method.

    Measured: 28 days
