Brief Summary

Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Fespixon Cream for the Treatment of Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers (TEXAS 1A, 2A) in dialysis patients This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a topical cream containing Plectranthus amboinicus and Centella Asiatica when applied topically to diabetic foot ulcers in uremia patients with PAOD.

Detailed Description

This study is designed as a single-arm, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fespixon Cream for the treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) in dialysis.

Twelve(12) eligible subjects with DFUs and undergoing dialysis will be enrolled and assigned to receive Fespixon treatment for 20 weeks.

During the treatment phase, the Fespixon cream will be applied to the target ulcer twice a day for a maximum period of 20 weeks, until the ulcer closure (ulcer size of 0) for two consecutive visits at least 2 weeks apart, or until the subject exited the study as treatment failure. After that, all subjects regardless of wound healing at the end of the treatment phase will be followed for 2 weeks.

Identical standard of care (SoC) procedure will be performed throughout the study period, which including ulcer cleansing and debridement (if necessary) until complete ulcer closure.

At each visit, the size and changes of the target ulcer are recorded by photographing, and calculated using Image® software.

The study consists of three periods, a 2-week Screening/Run-in period, an up-to-20-week Treatment period, and a 2-week Follow-up period.

5. There is a minimum 3 cm margin between the qualifying Target Ulcer and any other ulcers on the specified foot, (post-debridement).

6. No active infection by clinical inspection as defined by IDSA/IWGDF criteria. Note: If the subject has more than one qualifying diabetic foot ulcer, the most severe ulcer will be designated as the target ulcer; meanwhile, the depth of the wound will the consideration prior to the area of the wound.

5. Subject has adequate vascular perfusion of the affected limb, confirmed by Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) ≥0.7 and < 1.3, transcutaneous pressure of oxygen (TcPO2) ≥30 mmHg on at least one lead, or Doppler ultrasound related test to ensure no serious embolisms/no serious clogging of blood vessels. .
