New Blood-Based gel could heal stubborn wounds

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Male or female ≥ 18≤ 80 years of age 2. Chronic wounds present for at least thirty (30) days meeting classification as, mild to moderate severity, open exuding wound, including, leg ulcer, pressure ulcer, or mechanically or surgically debrided. 3\. Located in any anatomical location on the body. 4. If more than one non-healing wound is present, an index wound will be selected ≥ 1.0 cm2 size and less than or equal to 25.0 cm2. 5\. If the wound is in an ulcer cluster the dominant ulcer will be selected, with at least 2.0 cm2 between the index wound and other wounds. 6\. The study wound will be present for at least thirty (30) days and the subject will have undergone standard of care assessment and intervention, according to the wound type being evaluated, where SOC may include, but not be limited to, proper cleansing and debridement, off-loading, compression, bioburden reduction, moisture management, infection control, optimized perfusion, venous ablation, nutrition supplementation, smoking cessation counseling and medical therapy, and access to wound and underlying disease education and training. 7\. Neurovascular assessment, conducted according to the assessment typically performed for the wound type will be performed during Screening (Study Visit 1), and repeated at the level normally conducted at the follow-up visits. Perfusion should be adequate to sustain a healing process. Neurological examinations will be performed to document the presence of neuropathy and/or nerve injury. 8\. Documented 40% or less wound closure during thirty (30) days of standard of care (SOC). 9\. No clinical signs of infection at the wound site or the affected limb. 10. Post-debridement with no residual necrotic tissue. 11. Platelet counts should be within normal range ≥ 105,000 to \<450, 000. 12. Hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 10 g/dL and Hematocrit (HCT) ≥ 27%. 13. HbA1C ≤ 12%. 14. Chronic renal failure (CRF) and dialysis patients may be enrolled. 15. PT/aPTT/INR should be within normal limits unless the subject is on coumadin, then maintain range of INR 2 to 3. 16\. Prealbumin ≥ 15 mg/dL. 17. Adequate off-loading of the wound site for wheelchair bound, bed bound, and ambulatory subjects. 18\. Multi-layered compression dressings for venous related wounds. 19. Females of childbearing potential should not be pregnant and agree to avoid conceiving during the study. 20\. Males agree to use contraception or abstinence during the study. 21. The subject has provided written informed consent prior to any screening procedures and agrees to comply with study procedures and requirements. 22\. Usual care therapies that may be included will be negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), antimicrobial dressings, collagen containing matrix and packing materials. Exclusion Criteria: * Exclusion Criteria 1. Life expectancy is less than twelve (12) months. 2. Participation in another clinical trial involving an investigational device or drug within thirty (30) days prior to enrollment. 3. Sepsis within two (2) weeks prior to enrollment. 4. Soft tissue infection affecting the wound within two (2) weeks prior to enrollment. 5. Known osteomyelitis or occult osteomyelitis documented with inflammatory markers ESR ≥ 60 and/or CRP ≥7.9 mg/dL. 6. Religious constraints to using blood products, including autologous blood. 7. Alcohol or substance abuse (other than tobacco) within 2 months prior. 8. Severe lymphedema at Stage 3b or greater (lymphostatic elephantiasis). 9. The inability to use compression therapy for venous insufficiency or lymphedema. 10. Subjects who are cognitively impaired, unable to understand the informed consent, or have a health care proxy. 11. Hemophilia, sickle cell anemia, thrombocytopenia, and leukemia or blood dyscrasia. 12. History of problems with coagulation, abnormal thrombocytes (platelets), or receiving heparin, intravenously. However, subjects taking coumadin, aspirin, clopidogrel, or other oral anti-coagulants are not excluded. 13. Cytostatic therapy within the past 12 months. 14. The subject has inadequate venous access for repeated blood draw. 15. Known HBV, HCV, or HIV. 16. Blood-borne or communicable disease that would likely prevent full participation in the trial (HIV, AIDS, COVID-19). 17. Subjects with known sensitivity to blood components of the PRF Kit (e.g., rubber stopper, vacutainer tubing). 18. Advanced therapy treatments with hyperbaric oxygen, electrical stimulation (eStim), pulsed electromagnetic energy fields (PEMF), colored light therapies, cellular tissue products (CTPs) like amniotic tissues, Apligraf® and Dermagraft® will be excluded; while NPWT, collagen matrix products (sheet or bulk packing), antimicrobial dressings (surfactants, silver or copper, hypochlorous acid) may be used.
