Recruiting studies
- NCT06918561Recruiting
NeoThelium FT for chronic open wounds
This trial tests a new skin-like graft called NeoThelium FT to see if it helps chronic open wounds heal faster. It is for adults with a non-infected wound that has been open for at least 4 weeks and is not a diabetic, pressure, or burn wound.
Denham Springs, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05169814RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Microbubble treatment for certain burn and wound types
This early-stage study tests micro/nanobubbles placed on or used for certain types of difficult wounds, including burns and some pressure or diabetic foot ulcers, especially when there has been tissue injury from radiation. It may help wounds heal faster or more effectively, but it is still being studied in early phases.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07329114Recruiting
Testing an electrical dressing for infected wounds
This trial tests a special 'electroceutical' dressing that uses low-level electrical signals to help heal infected traumatic wounds. It may help people with wounds that are not healing well and show signs of infection.
Ivano-FrankivskAges 18–105 - NCT07103707Recruiting
Open vs. laparoscopic gallbladder surgery infection risk
This trial looks at whether healing after gallbladder removal is better when the surgery is done with a few small cuts (laparoscopy) versus one larger cut (open surgery). It may help you avoid wound infections.
Peshawar, Khyber PakhtunkhwaAges 18–65 - NCT06921707Recruiting
WounDx test for healing decisions in large wounds
This trial tests a new tool called WounDx that helps doctors decide the best way to treat large wounds on arms, legs, or buttocks. It may help your wound heal better by guiding your care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–65 - NCT07396376RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing ELU42 spray for diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests a new topical spray (ELU42) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may be a good option if you have a non-infected, non-ischemic ulcer and your blood sugar is reasonably controlled.
O'Fallon, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT05217160RecruitingPhase 4
KeraStat gel with morphine for non-healing painful open wounds
This study tests whether KeraStat® gel that delivers morphine through the skin can reduce pain and help manage non-healing ulcers or open wounds. You may be eligible if your wound fits specific size and depth limits and you can track pain every day.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07142408RecruitingPhase 3
Bacteria reduction before skin cancer surgery on legs
This trial tests if reducing bacteria on your skin before skin cancer surgery on the leg can lower the risk of infection, especially for wounds left open to heal naturally.
Marlton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05615844RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotic beads versus negative pressure dressing for severe leg fractures
This Phase 3 study compares two ways to help heal a severe open tibia (shin bone) fracture and prevent complications like infection. If you qualify, you may receive antibiotic beads or a negative pressure wound therapy dressing after urgent wound cleaning.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06576154RecruitingPhase 3
Antibiotics to prevent infection after hernia repair in high-risk patients
This trial tests whether giving antibiotics before surgery can lower the chance of infection after groin hernia repair in people who are at higher risk due to age, diabetes, obesity, or other health conditions. If you're over 60 and have one of these risk factors, this study may help you avoid a wound infection.
AleppoAges 18 years+ - NCT03765567RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic powder placed in certain emergency open fractures
This study tests whether putting antibiotic powder directly into an open fracture wound in the emergency room can improve care outcomes. It focuses on adults treated shortly after injury.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–89 - NCT07328698Recruiting
Ozonated oil dressing after hernia surgery pilot
This study tests whether a special oil dressing (ozonated oil) can help heal the surgical wound better after open inguinal hernia repair. It compares the oil dressing to a standard dressing to see if it reduces pain, infection, or other complications.
Niğde, Niğde ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT07352683Recruiting
Nerve block for kids having belly surgery
This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain in children aged 1–15 who are having open abdominal surgery. It aims to see if this approach improves recovery.
UppsalaAges 1–15 - NCT07172893RecruitingPhase 4
Dermabind TL for diabetic foot ulcers

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for open wound?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting open wound studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a open wound trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a open wound trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
