Device: EPIFIX
Registration Number
NCT06236750
Lead Sponsor
MiMedx Group, Inc.
Brief Summary

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.

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.

All
Target Recruitment
75
Inclusion Criteria

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.

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