About this trial

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.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

None

Disqualifiers

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.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • EPIFIX

    Device

    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.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

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.

Time frame
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.

Time frame
9 months after initial application

Secondary outcomes

Other outcomes

1

Efficacy Endpoint: Reduction in Wound Size at 4 Weeks, 8 Weeks, and 12 Weeks

Wound size will be measured at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after initial DHACM application, and the percent reduction of wound area will be calculated compared to baseline (week 0), as a measure of rate of wound closure.

Time frame
4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks after initial application
2

Efficacy Endpoint: Time to Complete Wound Healing during 12 Weeks of Application

The amount of time after initial DHACM application to achieve complete epithelialization of the wound.

Time frame
12 weeks after initial application
3

Efficacy Endpoint: Wound Recurrence for 6 months after Wound Closure

The recurrence rate of healed ulcers will be monitored for 6 months after wound closure is achieved.

Time frame
6 months after wound closure
4

Safety Endpoint: Incidence of Device Deficiencies

Incidence rate of device deficiencies, severity, and details in DHACM-treated patients during 12 weeks of treatment and 6 months of follow-up.

Time frame
9 months after initial application
