Virus cocktail takes on stubborn diabetic foot infections
NCT ID NCT02664740
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding a special virus mixture (phage therapy) to standard wound care can shrink diabetic foot ulcers infected with staph bacteria more than standard care alone. About 60 adults with diabetes and a foot ulcer that has lasted over 2 weeks will take part. The treatment is applied directly to the wound, and healing is measured after 12 weeks.
