Fat stem cells for diabetic foot ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injecting your own fat stem cells into a diabetic foot ulcer can help it heal. It is for people with a specific type of foot sore that hasn't healed after 6 weeks of standard care.

This Phase 1 study tests whether stem cells taken from fat tissue (after a small procedure) can help heal a long-lasting diabetic foot ulcer. It mainly aims to help ulcers that are limited to soft tissue and have good blood flow to the foot.
This trial tests a new procedure that uses a patient's own fat tissue to help heal diabetic foot ulcers on the bottom or heel of the foot. It may help people whose ulcers have not healed with standard care.
This trial tests whether injecting a patient’s own regenerative cells under the skin helps heal diabetic foot ulcers. It also checks how safe the treatment is, especially when the ulcer is not caused by severe poor blood flow.
This trial tests a new cell treatment for diabetic foot ulcers by injecting special regulatory monocytes (OPM cells) to help heal wounds. It is for patients with mild to moderate ulcers that haven't healed for over a month.
This trial tests whether a treatment made from placental cells can help heal diabetic foot ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. It may be an option if you have a moderate-sized ulcer on one foot and have had type 2 diabetes for at least a year.
This trial tests a special skin graft made from donated human tissue to help heal diabetic ulcers that have not improved on their own. It may be a good option if you have a diabetic foot ulcer that is at least 2 weeks old, free of infection, and has good blood flow to the area.
