Inclusion criteria

  • The potential subject must be at least 18 years of age or older.
  • The potential subject must have a diagnosis of type 1 or 2 Diabetes mellitus.
  • At enrollment, the potential subject must have a target ulcer with a minimum surface area of 1.0 cm2 and a maximum surface area of 15.0 cm2 measured post debridement with the imaging device length times width.
  • The potential subject must have a target ulcer that has been present for a minimum of 4 weeks of standard of care, prior to the initial screening visit.
  • The potential subject must have a target ulcer located on the foot with at least 50% of the ulcer below the malleolus.
  • The potential subject must have a target ulcer that is Wagner 1 or 2 grade, extending at least through the dermis or subcutaneous tissue and may involve the muscle provided it is below the medial aspect of the malleolus. The ulcer may not include exposed tendon or bone.
  • The potential subject's affected limb must have adequate perfusion confirmed by vascular assessment. Any of the following methods performed within 3 months of the first screening visit are acceptable:

    1. ABI between 0.7 and ≤ 1.3;
    2. TBI ≥ 0.6;
    3. TCOM ≥ 40 mmHg;
    4. PVR: biphasic. 8. If the potential subject has two or more ulcers, they must be separated by at least 2 cm. The largest ulcer satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be designated as the target ulcer.
  • The potential subject must have a target ulcer located on the 50% below the malleolus and not on the dorsal toes.
  • The ulcer must be offloaded for at least 14 days prior to enrollment.
  • The potential subject must consent to using the prescribed offloading method for the duration of the study.
  • The potential subject must agree to attend the weekly study visits required by the protocol.
  • The potential subject must be willing and able to participate in the process.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The potential subject is known to have a of \< 6 months.
  • The potential subject's target ulcer is not secondary to diabetes.
  • The target ulcer is infected or there is cellulitis in the surrounding skin.
  • The target ulcer exposes tendon or bone.
  • There is evidence of osteomyelitis complicating the target ulcer.
  • The potential subject is receiving (including systemic at doses greater than 10 mg of prednisone per day or equivalent) or cytotoxic chemotherapy or is taking medications that the PI believes will interfere with wound healing (e.g., biologics).
  • The potential subject has applied topical steroids to the ulcer surface within one month of initial screening.
  • The potential subject with a previous partial amputation on the affected foot that results in a deformity that impedes proper offloading of the target ulcer.
  • The potential subject has (HbA1c) greater than or equal to 12% within 3 months of the initial screening visit.
  • The surface area of the potential subject's target ulcer has reduced in size by more than 20% in the 2 weeks prior to the initial screening visit ("historical" run-in period). Imaging Device is not required for measurements taken during the historical run-in period (e.g., calculating surface area using length X width is acceptable).
  • The surface area measurement of the potential subject's target ulcer decreases by 25% or more during the active 2-week screening phase: the 2 weeks from the initial screening visit (S1) to the TV-1 visit during which time the potential subject received SOC.
  • The potential subject has an acute Charcot foot, or an inactive Charcot foot, which impedes proper offloading of the target ulcer.
  • The potential subject is a woman who is pregnant or considering becoming pregnant within the next 6 months.
  • The potential subject has end stage renal disease requiring dialysis.
  • The potential subject has participated in a clinical trial involving treatment with an product within the previous 30 days.
  • The potential subject, in the opinion of the investigator, has a medical or psychological condition that may interfere with study assessments.
  • The potential subject was treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) or a Cellular, Acellular, Matrix-like Product (CAMP) in the 30 days prior to the initial screening visit.
  • The potential subject has a malnutrition.
  • The potential subject has a known allergy or sensitivity to PBS, IPA, processing solutions, reagents, or latex.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(6)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Life expectancy

The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

HbA1c

A blood test of average blood sugar over the past two to three months, given as a percentage or in mmol/mol. 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or more is the usual threshold for diabetes, normally confirmed by a second test.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 19, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
