Testing PEP-TISSEEL for chronic radiation skin ulcers
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
This trial studies a treatment called PEP-TISSEEL for people with long-lasting skin damage from radiation therapy. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps these wounds heal better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a new tissue-engineered skin substitute called NeoThelium FT for treating pressure injuries (bed sores) on the pelvis or lower legs. It may help heal wounds that haven't improved much with standard care.
This Phase 1 study tests whether injected stem cells can help wounds heal faster or better. It focuses on people with specific wound types and sizes, and checks safety and wound healing over weekly visits.
This study tests a small skin graft approach to help wounds caused by prior radiation heal better. If you have a radiation-related skin wound that usually heals slowly on its own, this may speed healing and improve comfort.
This trial tests if a special film placed on the skin can reduce radiation side effects in people who have had breast cancer surgery and are now getting radiation therapy.
This trial tests a new treatment, PAL-222, for skin ulcers that haven't improved much after 4 weeks of standard care. It aims to see if PAL-222 can help these wounds heal better.
This trial studies skin reactions caused by dressings used on chest implantable ports (small devices under the skin to deliver chemo). It is for adults starting their first chemo, who have a chest port.
