Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the COMS One Therapy System in combination with standard of care treatment to treat long-term diabetic foot ulcers compared to standard of care treatment alone. Changes in ulcer healing will be evaluated before, during, and after treatment with the device. The COMS One Therapy System is currently approved for use in Europe, but has not yet been approved in the US by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA); therefore, while the device is being used in the US it will be considered investigational. The study will be conducted in 15-20 sites across the US, and a total of 224 patients will be enrolled in the trial. If you decide to take part in this study, you will be assigned to one of two possible treatments.
