Summary

This is a randomized controlled clinical investigation in patients suffering from diabetic foot ulcers at multiple centres in India and Bangladesh. The study compares patient outcomes using standard wound care with a High Purity Type-I Collagen-Based Skin Substitute against standard wound care with an Acellular Intact Fish Skin Matrix.

Conditions

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU)

Interventions

DEVICE

High Purity Type-I Collagen-Based Skin Substitute and SOC

Arm A - The SOC in this study is wound care covering with High Purity Type-I Collagen-Based Skin Substitute (Helicoll®) applied weekly or as needed followed by a padded 3-layer dressing comprised of first layer - non-adherent and porous paraffin gauze, second layer - absorbent gauze pads \& third layer - soft roll and compressive wrap (crepe bandage). For participants enrolled in the optional histopathological sub-study, a 2-mm punch biopsy will be obtained from the wound edge at baseline and on Day 5 under local anesthesia. Specimens will be fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin, paraffin-embedded, and sectioned at 4 μm for histological and immunohistochemical analysis.

DEVICE

Acellular Intact Fish Skin Matrix and SOC

Arm B - The SOC in this study is wound care covering with Acellular Intact Fish Skin Matrix (Kerecis Omega3 Wound®) applied weekly or as needed followed by a padded 3-layer dressing comprised of first layer - non-adherent and porous paraffin gauze, second layer - absorbent gauze pads \& third layer - soft roll and compressive wrap (crepe bandage). For participants enrolled in the optional histopathological sub-study, a 2-mm punch biopsy will be obtained from the wound edge at baseline and on Day 5 under local anesthesia. Specimens will be fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin, paraffin-embedded, and sectioned at 4 μm for histological and immunohistochemical analysis.
