Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 80 with Type I or Type II diabetes and Wagner Grade II foot ulcers that have persisted for more than 4 weeks.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with non-diabetic foot ulcers or those whose ulcers have changed in size may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This phase 2 clinical study evaluates the efficacy and safety of ALLO-ASC-SHEET in patients with diabetic Wagner Grade II foot ulcers compared to a placebo. The study is double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who receives the treatment or placebo. Eligible participants include adults aged 18 to 80 with specific ulcer characteristics, and the study aims to determine if the treatment can improve healing outcomes. Participants will be monitored for safety and effectiveness throughout the trial.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve healing rates for patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using similar advanced therapies for wound healing, but this specific approach is still being evaluated.
