Tissue repair gel for venous leg ulcers
This trial tests a gel that helps heal leg ulcers caused by poor blood flow in the veins. It may help if you have a venous leg ulcer that has not healed on its own after at least 4 weeks.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05243966Recruiting
Registry for soft tissue repair using a special matrix
This study is a registry that collects information from people who had soft tissue repair using a specific matrix and/or morcell material. It may help researchers understand how this approach performs in real-world care and patient outcomes over time.
Greensboro, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05462860Recruiting
Suprathel dressing for certain partial-thickness burn wounds
This study tests whether a skin dressing called Suprathel can help certain partial-thickness burns heal better and reduce the chance you need skin grafting. It focuses on burns from common causes like friction, hot liquids, or flame, during a “field care” or emergency-type treatment setting.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT07116876Recruiting
Placental membrane vs standard care for diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests a special wound covering made from donated placental tissue to see if it helps diabetic foot ulcers heal better than usual care. It may be an option for people with diabetes who have a foot sore that hasn't healed after 30 days.
Raleigh, North CarolinaAges 21–80 - NCT06384183Enrolling by invitation
Real-world fish skin graft registry study
This study tracks how well a fish skin graft (Kerecis) heals wounds in real patients. It helps doctors learn more about who benefits most from this treatment.
Greensboro, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT06616844Recruiting
Patch for non-healing diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests a special patch made from pig tissue (placenta) placed on diabetic foot ulcers that are not healing well. If you have a foot ulcer that has been present for 4 to 52 weeks and is not shrinking, you may be able to join the study.
Raleigh, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03716167Recruiting
Near-infrared laser for healing and pain in leg vein ulcers
This study tests whether a near-infrared laser can improve healing and reduce pain in chronic venous leg ulcers. If you qualify, you may receive laser treatment and will be checked over time for wound healing and pain levels.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05638581RecruitingPhase 3
Compare low-titer type O whole blood for trauma bleeding
This study tests whether giving low-titer type O whole blood (or related blood products) works better for treating serious bleeding after a traumatic injury. It’s for adults who start blood transfusions right away under a massive bleeding plan.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 15 years+ - NCT05699174RecruitingPhase 3
Compare two antibiotic routes for infected broken bones after surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving antibiotics by mouth (PO) works as well as giving antibiotics through a vein (IV) for an infected fracture that has not healed after prior surgery. It may help you understand which approach is safer and more effective for getting the bone to heal.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07172893RecruitingPhase 4
Dermabind TL for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests a new wound dressing called DermaBind TL for people with diabetic foot ulcers. It aims to see if the dressing helps heal these wounds, which can be hard to treat.

What taking part in a wound 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.
