Diabetic foot complications that lead to lower extremity amputations pose a significant challenge to the entire global health system. In this multicentre clinical trial, 26 patients with chronic Wagner one diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) were treated with a unique human keratin matrix graft applied either weekly or bi-weekly, in addition to standard of care. The hypothesis was that bi-weekly application would be similar to weekly application.

A novel autologous heterogeneous skin construct (AHSC) was previously shown to be effective versus standard of care (SOC) treatment in facilitating complete wound healing of Wagner 1 diabetic foot ulcers in an interim analysis of 50 patients previously published. We now report the final analysis of 100 patients (50 per group), which further supports the interim analysis findings. Forty-five subjects in the AHSC treatment group received only one application of the autologous heterogeneous skin construct, and five received two applications.

We desired to carefully evaluate a novel autologous heterogeneous skin construct in a prospective randomised clinical trial comparing this to a standard-of-care treatment in diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This study reports the interim analysis after the first half of the subjects have been analysed. Fifty patients (25 per group) with Wagner 1 ulcers were enrolled at 13 wound centres in the United States.

Unlabelled: Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) are often refractory to compression therapy, and their prevalence is increasing. An autologous homologous skin construct (AHSC) that uses the endogenous regenerative capacity of healthy skin has been developed to treat cutaneous defects, with a single application. The ability of AHSC to close VLUs with a single treatment was evaluated in an open-label, single-arm feasibility study to test the hypothesis that AHSC treatment will result in wound closure by providing healthy autologous tissue to the wound bed.

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a growing burden on patients and health care systems that often require multiple treatments of both conventional and advanced modalities to achieve complete wound closure. A novel autologous homologous skin construct (AHSC) has been developed to treat cutaneous defects with a single topical application, by leveraging the endogenous repair capabilities of the patient's healthy skin. The AHSC's ability to close DFUs with a single treatment was evaluated in an open-label, single-arm feasibility study.
