Study risk factors for healing in diabetic foot ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at what factors affect outcomes in adults with diabetic foot ulcers. It may help doctors better predict healing and complications by better understanding what influences progress.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re an adult (18 or older) with diabetes
- You have a diabetic foot ulcer (an open skin sore) that is at least 5 mm across
- The ulcer is below the ankle (below the malleolus)
- The wound is due to diabetic complications
- If you had a related amputation before joining, the amputation stump is what the study uses as the main wound

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.
This study tests whether an exercise program can help wounds (ulcers) heal faster in people with diabetic foot ulcers. It mainly looks for adults with type 2 diabetes and enough blood flow to the foot, and checks safety and healing progress.
This study looks at the health records of people with diabetic foot ulcers to understand their characteristics. It may help improve care for future patients.
This trial tests if a digital health education program helps people with diabetes take better care of their feet and improve their quality of life. If you have a diabetic foot wound that has been present for at least 4 weeks, this study might be for you.
This study tests a new wound therapy for diabetic foot ulcers that haven't healed with standard care. It aims to see if the therapy helps these ulcers heal better and faster.
This trial tests whether adding a special treatment (cellular acellular and matrix-like products) to standard wound care helps diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers heal faster. It may be an option if you have a diabetes-related foot ulcer that hasn't healed with standard care.
