Recruiting studies
- NCT05132179Recruiting
Testing two antiseptic creams for diabetic foot ulcers
This study compares two topical (applied on the skin) antimicrobial agents—Dakin’s and Prontosan—to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. You may be eligible if you have a diabetic foot ulcer that has been present for at least 3 weeks and is large enough.
Uddevalla, TrollhattanAges 18–100 - NCT05172089Recruiting
Treating recurring infection in diabetic foot ulcers
This trial studies an approach to treat bacteria living in a diabetic foot ulcer and help prevent the ulcer from coming back. You may be able to join if you have an open diabetic foot ulcer and good blood flow to the wound.

Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05588583Recruiting
Tracking drainage from chronic leg or foot ulcers with a dressing
This study follows how much fluid (drainage) a chronic ulcer produces over time using a dressing called Mepilex Up. It may help clinicians better understand how this dressing manages “exuding” ulcers on the leg or foot.
Castro Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05603273Recruiting
Non-weight-bearing exercise to help diabetic foot ulcers heal faster
This study tests whether guided exercises that keep weight off your ulcer can speed healing of diabetic foot ulcers. It may help reduce pressure on the wound while monitoring safety and progress over the study.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–75 - NCT05610865RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell treatment for chronic diabetic foot ulcers
This Phase 1 study tests whether stem cells taken from fat tissue (after a small procedure) can help heal a long-lasting diabetic foot ulcer. It mainly aims to help ulcers that are limited to soft tissue and have good blood flow to the foot.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–60 - NCT05613985Recruiting
Ultrasound light added to usual care for infected diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests whether adding the VULNOFAST Plus/VULNOLIGHT system to usual care can heal infected diabetic foot ulcers more safely and effectively. It compares the added treatment plus usual care versus usual care alone.
ArezzoAges 18 years+ - NCT05758545Recruiting
Device treatment for diabetic foot ulcers with poor blood flow
This trial tests whether COMS One is safe and effective for healing a specific diabetic foot ulcer. It may help people whose ulcer is not healing well, especially when blood flow to the foot is limited.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 22–90 - NCT05762432Recruiting
Wound dressing study for certain diabetic foot ulcers
This study looks at a specific wound dressing in people with a non-infected diabetic foot ulcer that has nerve pain (neuropathic), poor blood flow (ischemic), or both. It may help you heal the ulcer and improve how the wound looks and progresses.
Airdrie, North LanarkshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05930210RecruitingPhase 3
Study gel treatment for diabetic foot ulcers that won’t heal
This Phase 3 trial tests ENERGI-F703 gel to help heal diabetic foot ulcers that have not improved for at least 4 weeks. It may help some people whose wounds meet specific size and non-infection criteria.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06104969Recruiting
Biomarkers for active diabetic foot ulcers
This study is looking for people with diabetes who have an open foot or ankle ulcer. Researchers want to collect samples to find biomarkers, which are natural signs in the body that could help improve treatment and healing. It may be a good fit if you have a diabetic foot ulcer and are not currently in another drug trial for ulcers.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06124586Recruiting
Early angioplasty for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests if an early procedure to open blocked leg arteries (angioplasty) helps heal foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to improve blood flow and prevent amputation.
DüsseldorfAges 18 years+ - NCT06154915Recruiting
Immune cells in diabetic foot ulcers
This study looks at immune cells in chronic foot ulcers caused by diabetes. It may help researchers understand how these ulcers heal, which could lead to better treatments.
Huddinge, Stockholm CountyAges 18–98 - NCT06236750Recruiting
Testing a human tissue wound covering for hard-to-heal ulcers
This study is testing a special wound covering made from donated human tissue (amnion/chorion membrane) to see if it helps heal stubborn diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. The covering is placed on the wound to help it heal.
Kobe, HyōgoAges Any age - NCT06278935Recruiting
Adapting lifestyle offloading for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests a lifestyle-based offloading program for people with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). It aims to see if a tailored approach can help healing and prevent complications, using telehealth for support.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT07291817Recruiting
Negative pressure treatment for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests a device that uses gentle suction (negative pressure) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may help people with poor blood flow in their legs who have not healed with other treatments.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT07696728Recruiting
Pulsed magnetic field therapy for diabetic foot ulcer sensation
This trial tests whether a painless pulsed electromagnetic field treatment can improve feeling in diabetic foot ulcers. It is designed for people with type 2 diabetes who have had a foot ulcer for a while and have lost some sensation due to nerve damage.
Faisalabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT06353568Recruiting
Light therapy to prevent diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests a painless light treatment (photobiomodulation) to see if it can prevent foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes who are at risk. If you qualify, you would receive the treatment regularly and be monitored for foot health.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–75 - NCT06383013RecruitingPhase 2
BB-101 for diabetic foot and leg ulcers
This trial tests a new medicine called BB-101 for diabetic ulcers on the lower leg or foot. The goal is to see if it helps these wounds heal faster.
TainanAges 20 years+ - NCT06420245Recruiting
Amniotic membrane graft for diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests whether a special graft made from amniotic membrane can help heal diabetic foot ulcers. If you have a foot ulcer that hasn't healed in at least 4 weeks and is not infected or cancerous, this treatment may be an option for you.
Palm Springs, CaliforniaAges 50–85 - NCT06437028Recruiting
Membrane allograft for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests a special membrane made from donated birth tissue (perinatal membrane) placed on a diabetic foot ulcer to help it heal faster. It's for people with diabetes whose foot ulcer hasn't healed after standard care for 4 weeks to a year.
Monroe, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06449638Recruiting
Testing new wound treatments for hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers
This trial compares several advanced wound treatments (called CAMPs) plus standard care versus standard care alone for diabetic foot ulcers that are slow to heal. The goal is to see if adding these treatments helps ulcers close faster.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 18 years+ - NCT06487780Recruiting
Preventing foot ulcers with a lifestyle program
This trial tests whether a lifestyle program can help people with diabetes avoid new foot ulcers. If you've healed from a foot ulcer in the last year, you may be able to join.
Downey, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT06515093Recruiting
New skin grafts for diabetic foot and venous leg ulcers
This study tests two new skin graft products (PelloGraft for diabetic foot ulcers and SanoGraft for venous leg ulcers) to see if they heal wounds faster than standard care. If you have a hard-to-heal foot or leg ulcer, this trial may offer a new option.
