Summary

This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety of the low level laser MC-8XL device treatment in subjects with an unsuccessfully treated Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) that has been present for at least 3 months.

Eligible subjects will be randomized to either Treatment group or Control group, following which, treatment of each subject will be provided by a qualified nurse at the clinic or in the home setting, everyday for up to 16 weeks.

Study assessments and adverse events monitoring will be also performed throughout the study.

Conditions

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Interventions

DEVICE

MC-8XL low level laser device and Standard wound care

The MC-8XL, a handheld Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) device, comprised of an infrared laser diode that generates wavelength of 808 nm and a green laser diode with a wavelength of 525 nm will be used to treat the experimental group. Along with the active LLLT, generally accepted standard wound care procedures will be used during the clinical trial by a qualified study nurse or doctor. These procedures will include wound cleaning and drying before irradiation with the laser device (sham or active). Each ulcer will be also assessed and debrided if needed. After irradiation, each ulcer will be dressed with saline gauze dressing and offloaded.

DEVICE

Sham laser device and Standard wound care

The Sham device is of similar appearance, emitting only green light for indication with a wavelength of 525 nm of a low power, with inactive IR laser which will be used in the Control group. Along with the sham device, the same generally accepted standard wound care procedures will be used.
