Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Subject has a transsphincteric or long intersphincteric anal fistula (>1.5 cm), with a seton in place for a minimum of 1 month, deemed eligible for primary or repeat fistula repair by anorectal advancement flap or LIFT: Anterior, posterior or lateral fistula, first or recurrent, at any position circumferentially, with one external opening.
Subjects is unable or unwilling to receive invasive surgical procedures, anorectal advancement flap or LIFT procedure, and is opting for minimally invasive technique of anal fistula management (i.e., fistula tract debridement and suturing of internal opening).

Study Summary

This trial will assess how safe and effective a new anal fistula treatment is, and compare it to a control treatment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with a specific type of anal fistula, who have had a seton in place for at least one month. They should not be candidates for or willing to undergo invasive surgical procedures and must have confirmed their condition with an MRI. Participants must use contraception if they can conceive.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests RD2 Ver.02, using the patient's own blood to create a clot as treatment, against saline application in managing anal fistulas. It's randomized and double-blind, meaning neither patients nor doctors know who gets which treatment until after the results are collected.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common concerns may include infection risk around the treated area, potential recurrence of the fistula, or complications from the procedure itself.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Combined healing rate at 6 months of anal fistulas treated with RD2 Ver.02 compared to control
Secondary outcome measures
Incidence of perirectal infection by 6 months in anal fistulas treated with RD2 Ver.02 compared to control.
Recurrence of anal fistula at 12 months post-treatment in subjects with healed fistula treated with RD2 Ver.02 compared to control, to evaluate the long-term efficacy of RD2 Ver.02 Application.
Other outcome measures
Incidence of adverse events compared between RD2 Ver.02 and control arms
Incidence of device-related adverse events in patients treated with RD2 Ver.02

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment armExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Subjects will undergo debridement of the fistula tract and suturing of internal opening, followed by a. water leak test. RD2 Ver.02 will be applied to the fistula tract in the operating room.
Group II: Control armExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
