Summary

This study tested whether injections of cells from donated placentas could improve blood flow and help heal foot ulcers in people with diabetes and blocked leg arteries. The trial planned to enroll about 24 adults with hard-to-heal foot sores. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
