Cleanser for Acute Wounds

April 30, 2025 updated by: Rochal Industries LLC

BIAKOS Antimicrobial Wound Cleanser and BIAKOS Antimicrobial Wound Gel: Providing Biofilm Prevention and Treatment Through Continuum of Care

The proposed study will be a prospective trial of management of acute traumatic wounds (less than 24 hours from injury and without previous intervention aside from a dressing for coverage). The study design involves a prospective single arm, 35 subject study that analyzes the effect of the subsequent application of a novel wound cleanser and wound gel on subjects' acute traumatic wounds and the respective microbial loads over a 28 day study duration.

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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

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.
Interventional

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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: Treatment
Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser and Antimicrobial Wound gel will be subsequently administered to the wound during the 28 day study duration.
Device: Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser (AWC)
BIAKŌS™ Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser helps in the mechanical removal of debris and foreign material from the skin, wound, or application site. BIAKŌS™ Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Cleanser is a pure, colorless, isotonic cleanser that is safe. The preservative, polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), at a concentration of 0.1% w/w is added to the product to inhibit the growth of microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, antibiotic resistant Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). and fungus Candida albicans within the product.
Other Names:
  • BIAKŌS Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser
  • AWC
Device: Antimicrobial Wound Gel (AWG)

BIAKŌS Antimicrobial Wound Gel provides a moist environment to wound surfaces. BIAKŌS Antimicrobial Wound Gel is a safe and gentle colorless gel. The gel provides preservative properties through the antimicrobial polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB).

BIAKŌS Antimicrobial Wound Gel:

  • Resists microbial colonization within the gel during shelf storage.
  • Provides an amorphous gel covering.
  • Facilitates autolytic debridement through a moist wound environment. Wounds experience some level of autolytic debridement in which the body's own enzymes breakdown necrotic tissue.
Other Names:
  • BIAKŌS Antimicrobial Wound Gel
  • AWG

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
Microbial Load
Time Frame: 28 days
As indicated semi-quantitatively by MicroGenDx/ Research and Testing Labs LLC (RTL) swab collection and qualitatively by visual assessments and MolecuLight i:X images.
28 days

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.
