NeoThelium FT for Venous Leg Ulcers
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a treatment called NeoThelium FT, an amnion skin graft, to determine its effectiveness in healing venous leg ulcers—painful leg wounds caused by poor blood flow. The trial aims to assess the treatment's effectiveness and safety in managing these ulcers. Suitable participants have a diagnosed venous leg ulcer without infection or exposed bone and have used compression therapy (special bandages that aid circulation) for at least a week. As an unphased trial, this study allows patients to contribute to groundbreaking research on a potentially innovative treatment for venous leg ulcers.
Do I need to stop taking my current medications for the trial?
The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but it does exclude those who have used certain treatments like immunosuppressants or topical steroids on the ulcer recently. It's best to discuss your current medications with the trial team.
What prior data suggests that NeoThelium FT is safe for venous leg ulcers?
Research has shown that NeoThelium FT is being tested for safety and effectiveness in treating venous leg ulcers. While detailed safety information from these studies is not yet available, the ongoing study indicates that NeoThelium FT is under careful safety monitoring. No widespread reports of serious side effects have emerged, which is encouraging. Treatments reaching this stage typically demonstrate some safety in earlier research. However, as the study continues, potential participants should stay informed and consult their healthcare provider.12345
Why are researchers excited about this trial?
NeoThelium FT is unique because it combines advanced wound care techniques with a novel treatment method for venous leg ulcers. Unlike traditional options that rely heavily on compression therapy and standard wound dressings, NeoThelium FT uses an innovative approach involving a specialized tissue application that promotes healing. Researchers are excited about this treatment because it integrates sharp debridement and moisture balance to enhance the ulcer healing process, potentially improving outcomes more effectively and efficiently than existing treatments.
What evidence suggests that NeoThelium FT might be an effective treatment for venous leg ulcers?
Research has shown that NeoThelium FT, a new product for skin grafts, may help treat venous leg ulcers. In earlier studies, patients who used NeoThelium FT alongside their regular care experienced better ulcer healing than those who did not. This trial will evaluate NeoThelium FT combined with standard care, which includes wound cleansing, sharps debridement, and moisture-balancing dressings. The treatment uses a special type of skin graft that promotes new tissue growth and reduces swelling. Early results suggest it can help ulcers heal faster and become smaller. Although researchers are still studying this treatment, initial findings are promising for people with venous leg ulcers.13456

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults over 18 with venous leg ulcers, specifically those without infection or visible bone exposure. The ulcer size must be between 1-30 cm2. Participants need good blood flow in the affected limb and should have been using compression therapy for at least a week before joining. Women of childbearing age must test negative for pregnancy.Inclusion Criteria
