Popis: An open label, multicenter 16‐week trial of cryopreserved human umbilical cord (TTAX01) was previously undertaken in 32 subjects presenting with a Wagner grade 3 or 4 diabetic foot ulcer, with 16 (50%) of these having confirmed closure following a median of one product application (previous study). All but two subjects (30/32; 94%) consented to participate in this follow‐up study to 1‐year postexposure. No restrictions were placed on treatments for open wounds. At 8‐week intervals, subjects were evaluated for adverse events (AEs) and wound status (open or closed). Average time from initial exposure to end of follow‐up was 378 days (range 343‐433), with 29 of 30 (97%) subjects completing a full year. AEs were all typical for the population under study, and none were attributed to prior exposure to TTAX01. One previously healed wound re‐opened, one previously unconfirmed closed wound remained healed, and nine new wound closures occurred, giving 25 of 29 (86.2%) healed in the ITT population. Three of the new closures followed the use of various tissue‐based products. Three subjects whose wounds were healed required subsequent minor amputations due to osteomyelitis, one of which progressed to a major amputation (1/29; 3.4%). One additional subject underwent two minor amputations prior to healing. Overall, the study found TTAX01 to be safe in long‐term follow‐up and associated with both a low rate of major amputation and a higher than expected rates of healing.
