Testing wound-healing products for stubborn bedsores
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests different wound-healing products (called CAMPs) to see if they work better than standard care for hard-to-heal pressure ulcers (bedsores). It might be a good fit if you have a long-lasting stage 3 or 4 bedsore on your trunk that is not infected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and can come to weekly study visits.
- You have a stage 3 or 4 pressure ulcer (bedsore) on your tailbone, hip, or sitting bone that has been present for at least one month.
- The wound is between the size of a nickel and the size of your palm (2–100 cm²) after cleaning.
- You are not using antibiotics for this wound right now, and the wound does not have infection or bone infection.
- You are not on high-dose steroids or chemotherapy, and you do not have kidney failure needing dialysis.

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 study tests a special wound covering made from amniotic membrane (the tissue that surrounds a baby in the womb) to see if it helps deep pressure ulcers heal faster. If you have a stage 3 or 4 pressure ulcer that hasn't improved with standard care, you may be able to join.
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 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 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.
This trial tests a new skin graft called NeoThelium FT for stage 2 or 3 pressure ulcers on the pelvis or lower leg. It’s for adults whose wounds are not infected and who can use a wound vacuum to help healing.
