  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with intractable diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers that have not decreased in surface area by at least 50% after 4 weeks of conventional therapies, such as radical wound management (removal of necrotic tissue, infection control, wound cleansing, etc.), glycemic control for diabetic foot ulcers, compression therapy for venous stasis ulcers and moist therapy using wound dressing materials.

Who cannot join

  • Areas of active infection or latent infection.
  • Patients with disorders that would cause an intolerable risk of postoperative complications.
  • Ulcers that cannot be sufficiently debrided.
  • Ulcers that, after debridement, have blood flow disorders where wound bed necrosis progresses at an early stage.
  • Wound surfaces with multiple ulcer surfaces and exposed bone, and no blood flow in the wound bed.
  • Patients with hypersensitivity to the aminoglycoside antibiotics used during manufacturing.

About this study

Official title: A Post-Marketing Surveillance to Observe the Safety and Efficacy of Dehydrated Human Amnion/Chorion Membrane (DHACM) Wound Graft in the Management of Non-Ischemic Chronic Wounds

The purpose of this survey is to observe the efficacy and safety of EPIFIX® dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane (DHACM) for the treatment of intractable diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers.

Read the detailed description

The study will enroll 75 subjects diagnosed with intractable diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers at 5 plastic surgery sites in Japan. Subjects will be treated with weekly applications of EPIFIX for up to 12 weeks, followed by 6 months of follow-up.

Being tested
EPIFIX
Medical subject headings
Diabetic Foot, Varicose Ulcer

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EPIFIXDevice

    Also called DHACM

    EPIFIX® is an allograft derived from dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane. EPIFIX is a medical device in Japan (Generic name: Material using human amniotic membrane for promotion of tissue healing) for use on intractable ulcers that are non-responsive to existing therapies for the purpose of promoting wound healing.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Efficacy Endpoint: Healing of Ulcers at 4 Weeks, 8 Weeks, and 12 Weeks

    The percentage of patients to achieve wound closure at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after initial DHACM application, as a measure of healing rate.

    Measured: 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after initial application

  2. Safety Endpoint: Incidence of Adverse Events

    Incidence rate of adverse events in DHACM-treated patients during 12 weeks of treatment and 6 months of follow-up.

    Measured: 9 months after initial application
