What is a clinical trial?

Clinical trials help doctors and researchers learn whether a treatment is safe and whether it works.
Before a new treatment can be widely used, it must be studied carefully. Clinical trials follow rules to help protect the people who take part.
Taking part is your choice. You can ask questions before you decide.
This clinical trial is for people living with diabetic foot ulcers.

What is this clinical trial about?

This clinical trial is looking at a possible new treatment called CYWC628 for diabetic foot ulcers that are hard to heal. The treatment aims to support wound healing by promoting tissue regeneration, reducing inflammation, and improving blood flow to the affected area.
In this clinical trial, researchers will compare standard wound care with standard wound care plus an investigational treatment.
The study team wants to learn more about safety and whether the treatment works.

What will happen in the clinical trial?

People who take part will be placed into study groups. Depending on the group, participants may receive:
Standard wound care alone
Standard wound care plus an investigational treatment
The investigational treatment may be given at different dose levels. The study team will check how the foot ulcer is healing and watch for any side effects.

Who may be able to join?

You may be able to take part if you:
Are aged 18 to 80
Have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes
Have a current diabetic foot ulcer
Meet other study requirements checked by the study team
Some people may not be able to take part because of certain health conditions or other study requirements. The study team will check whether the study is suitable for you.
