Interventions
Artacent® is a double layer of dehydrated amniotic membrane. The amnion is harvested from human placenta obtained during planned Caesarean sections. Tides Medical uses a proprietary process to clean and decellularize the amniotic membrane. The amnion is then folded into a bi-layer with the stromal sides facing outward. The dual layer is dried and cut into various sizes. In the final step the DLAM is terminally sterilized. Atracent®, like all other placental-derived products, is FDA cleared for homologous use through the 361 pathway. It is indicated for non-healing ulcers applied to a debrided, clean and uninfected ulcers.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects must be at least 18 years of age or older,
- Subjects must have a diagnosis of type 1 or 2 Diabetes mellitus.
- At randomization subjects must have a target ulcer with a minimum surface area of 0.7 cm2 and a maximum surface area of 20.0 cm2 measured post debridement with the Tissue Analytics photographic planimetry App.
- The target ulcer must have been present for a minimum of 4 weeks and a maximum of 52 weeks of standard of care prior to the initial screening visit.
- The target ulcer must be located on the foot with at least 50% of the ulcer below the malleolus.
- The target ulcer must be full thickness without exposed bone.
- The affected limb must have adequate perfusion confirmed by vascular assessment. Any of the following methods performed within 3 months of the first screening visit are acceptable:
- ABI between 0.7 and ≤ 1.3;
- TBI ≥ 0.6;
- TCOM ≥ 40 mmHg;
- PVR: biphasic.
You may not qualify if:
- Target ulcers located on the plantar aspect of the foot must be offloaded for at least 30 days prior to randomization.
- The subject must consent to using the prescribed off-loading method for the duration of the study.
- The subject must agree to attend the weekly study visits required by the protocol.
- The subject must be willing and able to participate in the informed consent process.
- A subject known to have a life expectancy of \< 6 months is excluded.
- The subject is excluded if the target ulcer is not secondary to diabetes.
- If the target ulcer is infected or if there is cellulitis in the surrounding skin, the subject is excluded.
- If there is evidence of osteomyelitis complicating the target ulcer, the subject is excluded.
- A potential subject cannot have an infection in the target ulcer or in a remote location that requires systemic antibiotic therapy.
- A subject receiving immunosuppressants (including systemic corticosteroids at doses greater than 10 mg of Prednisone per day or equivalent) or cytotoxic chemotherapy is excluded.
- The topical application of steroids to the ulcer surface within one month of initial screening is not permitted.
- A subject with a previous partial amputation on the affected foot is excluded if the resulting deformity impedes proper offloading of the target ulcer.
- If a subject has glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) greater than or equal to 12% within 3 months of the initial screening visit he/she is excluded.
- The subject is excluded if the surface area measurement of the Target ulcer decreases by 40% or more during the 4-week screening phase: the 4 weeks from the initial screening visit (SV1) to the TV-1/randomization visit during which time the subject received SOC.
- A Subject with an acute Charcot foot, or an inactive Charcot foot, that impedes proper offloading of the target ulcer is excluded.
