BR-AC for hard-to-heal leg ulcers
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a treatment called BR-AC, made from donated birth tissue, for leg ulcers caused by poor vein function that haven't healed with standard care. The goal is to see if adding BR-AC helps these ulcers heal faster than standard care alone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a gel applied on hard-to-heal leg ulcers to see if it can help them heal. It is for people with chronic venous leg ulcers that have not healed for at least 4 weeks but less than 2 years.
This trial tests if adding a special wound dressing made from pig placenta to standard care helps heal leg ulcers faster than standard care alone. You may qualify if you have a leg ulcer that has not shown much improvement in the last 4 weeks.
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.
This study compares several advanced wound treatments (called CAMPs) plus standard care to standard care alone for hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers. It aims to see if the extra treatments help wounds close faster and prevent complications.
This trial tests a new “micro water jet” device (Debritom+) to help heal specific hard-to-heal wounds in people who can attend frequent visits. If you qualify, you’ll be assigned to the device treatment or standard care and monitored to see how well the wound heals.
This study looks at people with a healing or healing-worsening leg ulcer caused by weak veins (venous reflux). It may help improve care for this common type of ulcer and reduce time to healing by testing an approach for venous ulcers.
