The TRAfermin in Neuropathic Diabetic Foot Ulcer Study - Northern Europe The TRANS-North Study
- Conditions
- Diabetic Foot Ulcer of Neuropathic Origin
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01217476
- Lead Sponsor
- Olympus Biotech Corporation
- Brief Summary
Trafermin is a recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF; original development code, KCB-1), which is manufactured by genetic engineering using Escherichia coli by Kaken Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). Trafermin 0.01% cutaneous spray product kit consisting of a glass bottle containing lyophilized trafermin, a glass bottle with solvent for solution and a spray part to fit the glass bottle after reconstitution of the final product.
We conduct a multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel-group, multicentre study consisting of a placebo run-in phase (2w), a treatment phase (max. 12w) and a follow-up phase (3mo+6mo). The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate a superior wound closure rate of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) of neuropathic origin after a maximum of 12 weeks topical daily application of trafermin 0.01% spray compared with placebo, in addition to best local care (off-loading, dressings). Approximately 210 patients will be randomized and it is planned that this study will be conducted at approximately 40 investigational sites in Europe.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Wound Closure Rate of Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) of Neuropathic Origin After a Maximum of 12 Weeks Topical Daily Application of Trafermin 0.01% Spray Compared With Placebo, in Addition to Best Local Cares 12 weeks wound closure is defined as 100% reepithelialization of the target DFU, without exudates.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Relative Wound Area Regression of 40% or More at 6 Week 6 weeks The incidence of wound area regression of at least 40% at week 6 was considered as an important exploratory secondary efficacy variable. The wound area regression was calculated as percentage change from inclusion at week 6 using centralized wound area data.
