A Study to Evaluate ENERGI-F703 GEL in Venous Leg Ulcer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase II, multi-centered study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ENERGI-F703 GEL in subjects who are ≥ 20 years old with venous leg ulcer (VLU). Subjects will be recruited from multiple sites in Taiwan. The treatment period will be 84 days with another 84-day follow-up period.

Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: ENERGI-F703 GEL topical application on target venous leg ulcer, twice daily |
Drug: ENERGI-F703 GEL
The study medication will be applied twice daily until the end of 84 days or up to the visit confirmation of complete ulcer closure, whichever comes first.
The estimated amount of study medication applied to the ulcer area is 0.25 cm (about 0.11 g) in length per cm2 of ulcer size.
|
| Placebo Comparator: ENERGI-F703 GEL matched vehicle topical application on target venous leg ulcer, twice daily |
Drug: ENERGI-F703 GEL matched vehicle
The study medication will be applied twice daily until the end of 84 days or up to the visit confirmation of complete ulcer closure, whichever comes first.
The estimated amount of study medication applied to the ulcer area is 0.25 cm (about 0.11 g) in length per cm2 of ulcer size.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of complete ulcer closure [Day -21 to Day 99]
Complete wound closure is defined as 100% skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements confirmed at two consecutive study visit 2 weeks apart.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage change in target ulcer area from baseline to each post-treatment visit [Day -21 to Day 85]
- Time-to-Complete ulcer closure of target ulcer [Day -21 to Day 99]
Complete wound closure is defined as 100% skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements confirmed at two consecutive study visit 2 weeks apart.
- The accumulated confirmed target ulcer closure incidence at each of the post-treatment visit [Day -21 to Day 85]
Complete wound closure is defined as 100% skin re-epithelialization without drainage or dressing requirements confirmed at two consecutive study visit 2 weeks apart.
- Incidence of vital signs abnormalities [Day -21 to Day 169]
Vital signs measurement will consist of systolic/diastolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, pulse rate or heart rate, and body temperature.
- Incidence of physical examination abnormalities [Day -21 to Day 169]
Physical examination will include the following items: general appearance, skin, eyes, ears, nose, throat, head and neck, heart, chest and lungs, abdomen, extremities, lymph nodes, musculoskeletal, neurological and others.
- Incidence of laboratory examination results abnormalities [Day -21 to Day 169]
The laboratory examinations include Hematology tests (CBC), Biochemistry (AST, ALP, ALT, serum creatinine, BUN, albumin and fasting glucose) and Urinalysis (pH, glucose, RBC, WBC and protein).
- Incidence of AEs and SAEs [Day -21 to Day 169]

-
Able to tolerate compression therapy
-
Subject has signed the written informed consent form
Exclusion Criteria:

Target VLU With active cellulitis or osteomyelitis
-
With target ulcer size decreased by at least 30% after 2 weeks of standard care
-
With poor nutritional status (albumin < 2g/dl), poor diabetic control (HbA1c > 12%), a leukocyte counts < 2,000/mm3, abnormal liver function (AST, ALT>3 × upper limit of normal range) tests within 14 days prior to Screening visit or 28 days prior to Randomization visit
-
Requiring treatment with chemotherapeutic agents
-
With known or suspected hypersensitivity to any ingredients of IP and matched vehicle
-
With coronary heart disease with myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) within 3 months prior to Screening visit

7(2) Male subject with female spouse/partners who are of childbearing potential refuses to adopt at least one form of birth control (at least one of which must be a barrier method) from signing informed consent to the end of study)
