Omega3 Wound Fish Skin Graft in the Treatment of DFUs (NCT04133493)

A Multi-center, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Effect of Omega3 Wound Fish Skin Graft in the Treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcers

πŸ”΅ Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic βš™οΈ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Kerecis Ltd.

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this clinical evaluation is to collect patient outcome data on a commercially available 510K FDA-approved product that is derived from minimal processing of Atlantic cod fish skin: KerecisTM Omega3 Wound. In this trial, two groups of UT grade IA/1C diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), full skin thickness or extending through the subcutaneous or fat layers but not into tendon, muscle, or bone will receive standard of care (SOC) treatment for their condition. Patients will be randomized to SOC treatment and a 510k FDA-approved collagen alginate dressing (Fibracol Plus) or SOC and KerecisTM Omega3 Wound. The primary endpoint is the percentage of index ulcers (the ulcers being treated in the study) healed at 12 weeks in which two groups that will be compared are SOC with Fibracol Plus or SOC with KerecisTM Omega3 Wound
