Trial summary

Diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) is a disease caused by neurogenic (concerning the nervous system), vascular, mechanic and metabolic factors, which are further complicated by an impairment of the immune system and a corresponding increase in the risk for infections. Read more about this study

About this study

Diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) is a disease caused by neurogenic (concerning the nervous system), vascular, mechanic and metabolic factors, which are further complicated by an impairment of the immune system and a corresponding increase in the risk for infections. Results from clinical trials about the efficacy of interventions aimed at reducing the number of patient-relevant end points are of limited comparability due to the heterogenity of patient characteristics. By their very nature, randomized clinical trials (RCT) can only focus on a limited section of the wide range of possible intervention regimes. In clinical practice, however, a number of patients with dfs will never have been part of a clinical trial. Furthermore, there are only very few contemporary registers for this indication from which conclusions with regard to the comparative merits of different therapeutic strategies may be drawn.

The register was conceived to find out to which extent RCT patients are representative for the overall patient collective with dfs and critical limb ischemia and to evaluate the therapeutic success of other treatment strategies. An RCT to assess the efficacy of urokinase versus placebo is imbedded in the register.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Foot, run by GWT-TUD GmbH at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: recrution number was not reached). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

duration of survival without major amputation (time frame: to be assessed after 12 months observation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Apr 2014.
