Recruiting studies near Pittsburgh
- NCT06693570RecruitingPhase 4
Fish skin graft for hard-to-heal leg ulcers
This trial tests whether applying a special fish skin graft, along with standard compression therapy, helps heal leg ulcers caused by poor vein function (venous leg ulcers) that have not healed with standard care alone. If you have a nonhealing venous leg ulcer, this study may offer a new treatment option.
Monroeville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06999590RecruitingPhase 4
Testing wound-healing products for stubborn bedsores
This trial tests different wound-healing products (called CAMPs) to see if they work better than standard care for hard-to-heal pressure ulcers (bedsores). It might be a good fit if you have a long-lasting stage 3 or 4 bedsore on your trunk that is not infected.
Monroeville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06697925Recruiting
Venous leg ulcer closure durability study
This trial checks how long the closure of a venous leg ulcer lasts after healing. It is only for people who already took part in an earlier study (THOR trial) and had their ulcer fully close within 12 weeks.
Monroeville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06095128RecruitingPhase 4
Combination therapy for ulcerative colitis
This study tests two drugs together, vedolizumab and tofacitinib, to see if they are more effective than either alone in treating moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. It may be an option if other treatments have not worked well for you.
Wexford, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT05172089Recruiting
Treating recurring infection in diabetic foot ulcers

What taking part in a ulcer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
