252The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical benefit of CureXcell® as adjunct to Standard of Care in the treatment of Chronic Venous Leg Ulcers. CureXcell® is a cell based therapy, containing activated homologous white blood cells prepared from donated healthy whole blood. A total of 252 patients will be randomized to receive either CureXcell® or Placebo.
CureXcell® is a cell based therapy obtained from donated whole blood. The blood is collected from healthy young adults, the white blood cells are separated and then activated by hypo-osmotic shock.
Normal saline injected at each centimeter of ulcer bed
CureXcell® injection will be administered about every 4 weeks for up to 3 treatments, or until ulcer closure, whichever occurs first.
The placebo will be administered by injecting normal saline at each centimeter of the ulcer bed.
