Top Cities for Wound Healing Clinical Trials
Wound Healing clinical trials are recruiting across 34 cities. Here are the cities with the most active studies:
Wound Healing Trial Phases
23 research organizations are sponsoring wound healing trials.
About Wound Healing
Chronic wounds are injuries that fail to heal through the normal stages of repair in a timely manner. Common types include diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and venous leg ulcers. Treatment includes wound debridement, advanced dressings, negative pressure therapy, and growth factor applications.
Clinical trials are advancing new treatments for wound healing. Currently, 25 studies are recruiting a combined 3,478 participants across the United States. Research is being conducted by 23 organizations including University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, F. Johannes Plate, University of Pittsburgh and 20 others.
2026 Wound Healing Research Landscape
As of July 2026, the wound healing clinical trial landscape includes 25 actively recruiting studies across 34 cities in the United States. These studies are collectively seeking 3,478 participants, with an average enrollment target of 139 per study.
The research spans multiple phases of development: 16 studies are in NA, 3 studies are in PHASE2, 1 study is in PHASE1. Early-phase studies suggest new therapeutic approaches are being explored for wound healing.
Research is being led by 23 different organizations, including University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, F. Johannes Plate, University of Pittsburgh, ULURU Inc., Surgenex, and 18 others. The large number of sponsors reflects significant research interest and investment in wound healing treatment advancement.

Non-Invasive Testing to Evaluate Wound Healing in Diabetes
Normal group: We will collect normative data from healthy individuals to include baseline data, screening, and images. Up to 500 people will be enrolled and can include normal healthy volunteers, staff and students/trainees. Data will be collected one time with no follow up. Patient group: We will prospectively collect data using one instrument (camera) (SnapshotNIR, Kent Imaging, Calgary, Albert...
Influence of Antiseptic Washes on Wound Healing Complications After THA
The purpose of this research trial is to evaluate the effect of two types of washing solutions on wound healing after total hip replacement surgery. Washing solutions are used routinely during total hip replacements to clean the wound after the components have been placed and the wound is about to be closed with sutures. It is currently not known which washing solution may be better for wound heal...
Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) Biofilm Infection and Recurrence
This work is based on DFU patients, seeks to conduct a fully powered clinical study testing i) If DFU with a history of biofilm infection closes with deficient barrier function. ii) whether such functionally deficient wound closure, manifested as high TEWL, is associated with greater wound recurrence. The primary parent study will also address molecular mechanisms implicated in biofilm-induced los...
