Background: Diabetic foot ulcers are chronic, difficult to heal, and potentially life-threatening. Few medical devices have been studied in diabetic ulcers penetrating to bone or tendon. Methods: We conducted an international, open-label randomized controlled trial, randomly assigning patients with diabetic ulcers penetrating to bone, joint, or tendon 1:1 to intact fish skin graft or standard wound care, with assigned treatment applied through 14 weeks. The primary end point was the proportion of ulcers healed at 16 weeks, defined as reepithelization as identified by the investigator, and confirmed 14 days later. A blinded adjudication committee confirmed healing at both time points. Healing was also assessed at 20 and 24 weeks. Results: Between July 2020 and November 2022, 255 patients were randomly assigned to intact fish skin graft (n=129) or standard of care (n=126). Healing was achieved in 44% of patients at 16 weeks with intact fish skin graft compared with 26% for standard of care (P<0.001, unadjusted), with additional healing at 20 weeks (46% vs. 32%) and 24 weeks (55% vs. 38%). Mean (SD) time to healing was 17.3 (0.69) weeks (95% confidence interval [CI], 15.5 to 18.7) for the intact fish skin graft group and 19.4 (0.66) weeks (95% CI, 18.1 to 20.7) for the standard of care group. In a Cox regression, intact fish skin graft was associated with faster time to healing (hazard ratio, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.07 to 2.36). Primary wound infections were the most common adverse event, occurring in 39 (30.2%) of patients in the intact fish skin graft group and 31 (24.6%) of patients in the standard of care group. Conclusions: Among patients with deep diabetic foot ulcers, treatment with intact fish skin graft was superior to standard of care in proportion of wounds healed at 16 weeks and was associated with faster time to healing.
