Study of Subjects With Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU)

August 23, 2018 updated by: GlaxoSmithKline

Qualitative Research in Patients With Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Foot ulceration is a common and costly complication of diabetes. GSK1278863 is a topical drug, which is being developed to treat wounds associated with DFU. The aim of this study is to explore the symptoms and impacts of DFU from the subject perspective and to elicit in-depth information about DFU signs and symptoms, impacts on functioning and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Adult DFU subjects with current or recent (within last six months) neuropathic foot ulcers will be eligible to participate in this prospective, cross-sectional interview study. Approximately 20 DFU subjects will be recruited from up to three clinical sites. Potential subjects will be pre-screened and then contacted to gauge interest in the study. Interested subjects will be screened and eligible subjects will consent to release contact information to research staff. Research staff will contact the subject to schedule interviews. This study will include concept elicitation interviews over the telephone or in-person by trained and experienced interviewers. In-person interviews will be conducted in a private room at the clinical site. All interviews will be conducted in English and will be guided by semi-structured interview guides. All subjects will provide written consent prior to the start of the interview.

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

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Subjects with DFU
Adult male or female subjects, 18 years of age or over and currently receiving treatment for a diagnosis of DFU or have received treatment for a past foot ulcer within the last 6 months, will be recruited from up to three clinical sites. They will undergo concept elicitation interviews over the telephone or in-person by trained and experienced interviewers.

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
Assessment of signs and symptoms, impacts on functioning and HRQoL among subjects with DFU
Time Frame: Up to 60 minutes
An iterative and thematic analytic approach will be applied to the concept elicitation data in order to identify key concepts related to DFU signs and symptoms, impacts on functioning and HRQoL. Concepts that emerge from the analysis will be tracked using a saturation matrix and will be recorded until saturation is attained, or at the point when no new concepts have emerged from the data. Transcripts produced from the subject and expert interview audio recordings will be analyzed using qualitative analysis software in order to identify themes emerging from the data while accounting for information gleaned from the review of literature.
Up to 60 minutes

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
