- Presence of a DFU Wagner 1 or 2 grade at the first screening visit on any aspect of the foot, provided it is at or below the aspect of the medial malleolus. [NOTE: If two or more DFUs are present with the same grade, the index ulcer is the largest ulcer and the only one evaluated in the study. Index ulcer must be more than 5 cm distant apart.

- The index ulcer has been offloaded with protocol defined offloading device throughout the study run-in period for at least 14 days prior to randomization (Run- in period defined as Screening through TV1/Randomization).

- Affected extremity requiring hyperbaric oxygen during the trial or within 2 weeks of screening treatment visit 1.
- Presence of diabetes with poor metabolic control as documented with an HbA1c ≥12.0 within 30 days of randomization (TV1).

- Revascularization surgery on the lower extremity on which the index ulcer is located within 30 days of Screening Visit (SV1).

About this study
Official title: A Randomized Controlled Multicenter Trial, Examining the Effect of Amnio-Maxx on the Healing Rate of Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers
This randomized controlled study evaluates the adjuvant use of Amnio-Maxx in patients with diabetic foot ulcers
Read the detailed description
This is a multicenter randomized open-label clinical study in patients with Wagner grade 1 and 2 DFUs. Diabetic patients presenting with chronic nonhealing ulcers will be screened for eligibility. At least 50% of the eligible population will be drawn from patients ≥ 65 years of age. All patients will complete a 2-week run-in period prior to treatment allocation to Amnio-Maxx and standard of care (SOC) or SOC alone. Patients will be seen at weekly intervals (± 3 days) for the 12 weeks treatment period. If additional dressing changes are required between the scheduled visits, the occurrence of these visits will be recorded. Primary efficacy endpoints include percentage change in ulcer size at 12 weeks along with the proportion of participants achieving complete wound closure. Additionally, pain and safety will be assessed as secondary endpoints.
