Summary

Assess the effect of iontophoresis of treprostinil on wound closure over 12 weeks, in patients with DFU.

In the present study the investigators aim at establishing the proof-of-concept of iontophoresis of treprostinil as a potential treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in humans. The main hypothesis is that in patients with DFUs, the pharmacodynamic effect of a PGI2 analogue potentiates the effect of low-intensity current on microvascular function, tissue oxygenation and healing.

Conditions

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Interventions

DRUG

Treprostinil iontophoresis

We will administer treprostinil at increasing doses by a iontophoresis.

DEVICE

Remodulin® placebo iontophoresis

Placebo iontophoresis will be performed using Remodulin® placebo (United Therapeutics) delivered with Axion GmbH electrodes connected to a PeriIont generator (Perimed). * Part 1: 1 administration/day, on separate days, with 72h between two doses. The intensity will be set at 120 µA during 60 minutes, i.e. a total current of 17.3 mC/cm². * Part 2: 1 administration/day for 10 days. The intensity will be set at 120 µA during 60 minutes, i.e. a total current of 17.3 mC/cm².
