Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (18+) with type 1 or 2 diabetes who have a nonhealing diabetic foot ulcer present ≥4 weeks (and <12 months if on continuous SOC), with <25% reduction in size over the prior 14 days, Wagner grade 1–3 without active exposed bone, and an index ulcer between 0.7 and 25 cm2 are the intended candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active wound infection or untreated exposed bone, wounds smaller than 0.7 cm2 or larger than 25 cm2, rapidly healing ulcers, or inability to attend regular clinic visits are less likely to benefit from this protocol.

What this trial studies
This open-label, randomized study compares standard of care (SOC) alone to SOC plus OCM in adults with chronic diabetic foot ulcers. Participants who do not achieve complete closure by about day 84 and still meet criteria may cross over from SOC to receive weekly OCM applications for up to 12 treatments. Investigators will measure wound size and closure over the treatment and follow-up visits to determine the proportion of ulcers that heal completely. As a post-marketing study, it also collects real-world efficacy data to support insurance reimbursement decisions.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, adding OCM to standard care could increase the rate of complete wound closure and shorten healing time for diabetic foot ulcers.
How similar studies have gone: Other biologic and extracellular matrix products have shown promise in improving diabetic foot ulcer healing, but data specific to Omeza OCM are limited and being collected in this post-marketing setting.
