Patch of fat cells for chronic leg ulcers
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a patch made from your own fat cells (called TrophiPatch) to see if it helps heal chronic leg ulcers. It is for people with venous leg ulcers or diabetic foot ulcers that are not healing well with standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have either a venous leg ulcer (on lower leg) or a diabetic foot ulcer (on foot) that has lasted between 4 weeks and 3 years (depending on type).
- The ulcer is hard to heal — it will need to shrink less than 40–50% over a month of standard care.
- You do not have serious health issues like kidney failure, uncontrolled heart failure, active cancer, or other severe conditions.
- You are not pregnant or nursing, and are willing to avoid other wound treatments during the study.

This trial tests if a special graft made from amniotic tissue can help heal chronic leg or foot ulcers that haven't improved much in the last month. It may be an option if you have a non-healing venous leg ulcer or diabetic foot ulcer that still shows some signs of healing.
This trial tests a new treatment called VELGRAFT, which is made from living cells, for diabetic foot ulcers that haven't healed with standard care. The goal is to see if it can help the wound close and heal more effectively.
This trial tests whether an amniotic tissue treatment can help heal chronic diabetic foot ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. It focuses on a single ulcer below the ankle that has been present for more than 4 weeks but less than a year.
This study tests whether a special wound dressing made from human placental membrane can help heal diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers that did not close with standard care. It is for people who were in the BIOCAMP trial and whose ulcer remained open after 12 weeks of standard treatment.
This trial compares several advanced wound treatments (called CAMPs) plus standard care versus standard care alone for diabetic foot ulcers that are slow to heal. The goal is to see if adding these treatments helps ulcers close faster.
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.
