Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness of Miro3D Wound Matrix combined with standard wound care compared to standard care alone in treating Wagner Grade 1 diabetic foot ulcers and wound dehiscence. Sponsored by Reprise Biomedical, Inc., this prospective, randomized controlled trial aims to determine whether adding Miro3D, a three-dimensional acellular porcine-derived wound matrix, improves early wound healing and overall outcomes in an outpatient setting. The study focuses on wound area reduction and granulation tissue formation at four weeks as predictors of healing by twelve weeks. Participants will be randomized into two groups one receiving Miro3D plus standard of care SOC and the other receiving SOC alone. In the Miro3D group, the device is applied weekly for four weeks, then biweekly if needed, for up to twelve weeks. The SOC group receives usual wound care like cleansing, debridement, dressings, and offloading. If wounds remain unhealed after twelve weeks in the SOC group, participants may crossover to receive Miro3D treatment for an additional twelve weeks following the same schedule. Participants will be followed weekly for up to twelve weeks, with wound measurements, imaging, pain assessments, and quality of life evaluations at each visit. Those who heal will have confirmation visits at two and four weeks post-closure. The study will measure wound area reduction, granulation tissue, pain levels, and quality of life changes. Safety monitoring will document adverse events and device-related issues throughout, with additional observation for crossover participants. The trial aims to provide clinical evidence supporting Miro3Ds role in enhancing wound healing in diabetic patients.

This table compares participation in this trial with other options available for this condition. The information is drawn from published research and the trial’s study details and is provided for educational purposes only.
| Factors | Miro3D Wound Matrix + Standard of Care | Standard of Care Alone |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A wound treatment combining Miro3D Wound Matrix, a biologic matrix derived from porcine liver, with standard wound care measures such as wound cleansing, debridement, infection management, dressings, and offloading devices. | Standard wound care involving cleansing, removal of dead tissue, infection control, protective dressings, and offloading devices without the use of Miro3D Wound Matrix or other experimental matrices. |
| Role in trial | Active investigational intervention; assigned to participants in one arm/condition to assess its added effect when used with SOC. | Control/comparator intervention; represents current standard practices without the investigational device. |
| Primary use | Intended to promote healing and granulation in chronic or complex diabetic foot ulcers and chronic lower limb wounds not responding to standard care alone. | Supports wound healing in diabetic foot ulcers and chronic wounds through established cleaning, debridement, infection control, dressings, and offloading. |
| How it is given or performed | The Miro3D matrix is trimmed to fit the wound and applied to a clean wound bed after rehydration, in addition to all SOC steps such as wound cleansing, debridement, and dressing. Offloading is used to relieve pressure. | Standard cleaning, removal of non-viable tissue, infection management if needed, protective dressings, and use of offloading devices are provided according to current medical practices, with no additional biologic matrix. |
| Evidence status | Efficacy and safety are under investigation in this crossover clinical trial. Published human data for Miro3D in this wound indication are not yet established. | Standard wound care approaches are supported by clinical guidelines and robust comparative effectiveness evidence as the mainstay of diabetic foot ulcer management. |
| Important risks | Potential risks include local reaction or sensitivity to porcine-derived material and general procedural wound care risks. No published clinical safety data are yet available in this population. | Standard risks include infection, delayed healing, or recurrence despite guidelines for wound care. These risks are described in clinical literature on diabetic foot ulcer management. |
| Important limitations | Limitations include investigational status, lack of long-term or real-world effectiveness data, and unclear incremental benefit versus standard care alone until trial results are available. The application process also requires a wound bed clean of devitalized tissue. | Limitations of SOC include persistent non-healing in some chronic wounds despite guideline-adherent treatment, possible need for repeated debridement, and possible delays to healing. |
