About this trial
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical performance of transverse tibial bone transport in patients with chronic ischemic and diabetic lower extremity ulcers. This study will assess wound healing outcomes and limb preservation in a population with limited therapeutic alternatives.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adults (>=22 years).
Chronic diabetic foot ulcer wound persisting >=12 weeks and less than 104 weeks refractory to standard wound care.
Wound location within distal 1/3 tibia and below including foot.
Wound stages: WiFi >= 3
Disqualifiers
Active systemic infection (positive blood cultures)
Severe sepsis (2 out of 4 SIRS criteria with impact on organ dysfunction)
Subacute lower extremity wound <12 weeks with or without standard wound cares
Internal hardware within 10cm of possible TTT placement
Trial design

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Proportion of subjects with wound closure
To demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational procedure, when used in addition to standard wound care, in promoting clinically meaningful healing of chronic diabetic foot ulcers, specifically, to demonstrate that the proportion of subjects with wound closure is greater for the investigational procedure than standard wound care alone at 18 weeks while maintaining an acceptable safety profile. Proportion of subjects with wound closure as defined as 100% re-epithelialization of the target diabetic foot ulcer where there is no drainage or dressing is not required and confirmed at two consecutive study visits 2 weeks apart.
Secondary outcomes
Proportion of patients with PAR of greater than 60% at 8 and 18 weeks.
The proportion of patients between each cohort who achieve a Percent Area Reduction of greater than 60%
Mean PAR summarized at 8 and 18 weeks
To compare mean Percent Area Reduction (PAR) between treatment groups at 8 and 18 weeks
Frequency of subsequent procedures
Frequency of subsequent procedures (surgical debridement; minor/major amputation)
Time to achieve wound closure
Compare the time to achieve wound closure at 18 weeks and through 12 months
Other outcomes
Safety Endpoint - Adverse Events
• Frequency of treatment-emergent serious and non-serious adverse events
Safety endpoint - TTT Related
Frequency of device-related adverse events in the TTT arm including pin site infection and device breakage
Plasma growth factor level changes as measured by VEGf at 18 weeks and at 6,9 and 12 months
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) measured in either picograms per milliliter (pg/mL) or nanograms per liter (ng/L) in serum or plasma
Vascular Perfusion measured by Computed Tomography Angiogram (CTA) at 18 weeks and at 6, 9 and 12 months
CTA is measured in Hounsfield Units (HU)
