Effectiveness of AutoloGel Therapy in Diabetic Foot Ulcers

October 19, 2016 updated by: Cytomedix

A Multi-Center, Prospective, Cohort Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of AutoloGel Therapy to Usual and Customary Care in All Wagner Grades of Diabetic Foot Ulcers

The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness of complete wound healing in a prospective, open-label, case-matched cohort trial in which diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) will be treated using AutoloGel and case-matched against a concurrent cohort of patients receiving undefined Usual and Customary Care (UCC) as provided in up to 30 U.S. Wound Registry Research Network (USWRRN) centers.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

AutoloGel is a platelet-rich plasma gel used in the treatment of non-healing chronic wounds. Prospective observational studies of the effectiveness of AutoloGel have demonstrated promising results in regard to the healing of DFUs, including severe Wagner grade 3 and 4 ulcers. The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness of complete wound healing in a prospective, open-label, case-matched cohort trial in which diabetic foot ulcers will be treated using AutoloGel to determine the time to heal at 12 weeks. Comparison will be made with a case-matched concurrent cohort of patients receiving undefined Usual and Customary Care (UCC).

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Medicare/Medicaid eligible
  2. ≥18 years of age
  3. Type I or II diabetes requiring medical treatment as determined by the physician
  4. The largest non-healing wound, if multiple wounds are present, or the single wound to be treated (Index Ulcer) is a Wagner 1-5 DFU (see Appendix 9 for Wagner Classification) that is located on the dorsal, plantar, medial, or lateral aspect of the foot or heel (including all toe surfaces)
  5. For subjects with potentially multiple eligible DFUs, the largest ulcer will be selected There must be at least 4 cm between the Index Ulcer and other ulcers; if all ulcers are closer than 4 cm, the subject should not be enrolled (screen failure)
  6. Debrided ulcer size between 0.5 cm2 and 50 cm2
  7. Demonstrated adequate offloading regimen
  8. Duration ≥ 1 month at first visit
  9. Subject must be willing to comply with the Protocol, which will be assessed by enrolling clinician.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects known to be sensitive to AutoloGel components (calcium chloride, thrombin, ascorbic acid) and/or materials of bovine origin
  2. Presence of another wound that is concurrently treated and might interfere with treatment of the index wound by AutoloGel (malignancy in nearby wound)
  3. Ulcer not of DFU pathophysiology (e.g., venous, vasculitic, radiation, rheumatoid, collagen vascular disease, pressure, or arterial etiology)
  4. Any malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer
  5. Subjects who are cognitively impaired and do not have a healthcare proxy
  6. Serum albumin of less than 2.5 g/dL
  7. Plasma Platelet count of less than 100 x 109/L
  8. Hemoglobin of less than 10.5 g/dL
  9. Subject has inadequate venous access for repeated blood draw required for AutoloGel Administration.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: AutoloGel
Subjects will be treated on average twice a week for the first 2 weeks, and then, once a week thereafter while under active treatment, but actual frequency of treatment will be determined by the treating physician. All subjects will receive AutoloGel treatment.
Device: AutoloGel
AutoloGel is a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel used in the treatment of non-healing chronic wounds. It will be administered twice weekly for 2 weeks then weekly

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Time Frame: 12 weeks
The primary objective of the trial is to determine the time to heal diabetic foot ulcers treated with Autologel and Standard of Care at 12 weeks DFUs. Comparison will be made with a concurrent cohort of case matched subjects
12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
