Venous Leg Ulcers Understanding
Venous Leg Ulcers: Overview
Venous leg ulcers (VLUs) are defined as open lesions between the knee and ankle joint that occur in the presence of venous disease. They are the most common cause of leg ulcers, accounting for 60-80% of them. The prevalence of VLUs is between 0.18% and 1%. Over the age of 65, the prevalence increases to 4%. On an average 33-60% of these ulcers persist for more than 6 weeks and are therefore referred to as chronic VLUs. These ulcers represent the most advanced form of chronic venous disorders like varicose veins and lipodermatosclerosis. Risk factors for development of VLUs include older age, female sex, obesity, trauma, and immobility, congenital absence of veins, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), phlebitis, and factor V Leiden mutation. On physical examination, venous ulcers are generally irregular, shallow, and located over bony prominences. Granulation tissue and fibrin are typically present in the ulcer base. Associated findings include lower extremity varicosities, edema, venous dermatitis, and lipodermatosclerosis. Venous ulcers are usually recurrent, and an open ulcer can persist for weeks to many years. Severe complications include cellulitis, osteomyelitis, and malignant change. Poor prognostic factors include large ulcer size and prolonged duration. Evidence-based treatment options for venous ulcers include leg elevation, compression therapy, dressings, pentoxifylline, and aspirin therapy. Surgical management may be considered for ulcers that are large in size, of prolonged duration, or refractory to conservative measures.Venous Leg Ulcers - Pipeline Insight, 2024 report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication.

Report Highlights
In April 2022, Mediwound announced that EscharEx was featured in an oral presentation entitled: “Introduction to EscharEx: An Innovative Enzymatic Solution for the Debridement of Hard to Heal Wounds.” They key opinion leaders covered the efficacy and safety data from the Company’s two well controlled clinical studies in patients with venous leg ulcers (VLUs) and diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).Venous Leg Ulcers Emerging Drugs Chapters
This segment of the Venous Leg Ulcers report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.Venous Leg Ulcers Emerging Drugs
ENERGI-F703: Energenesis Biomedical ENERGI-F703 is a gel for external use accelerating healing of diabetes-caused wounds, mainly by activating AMPK inside cells to boost the density of ATP, energy molecules, in tissues near the wounds. Cellular and animal tests show that the application of ENERGI-F703 can produce the following effects: (1) reducing inflammation of endothelial cells of blood vessels; (2) accelerating the fibrosis of fibroblasts in the skin of wounds and increasing the deposition of collagen and the formation of granulation tissues; (3) speeding up the healing of wounds by promoting the migration of epithelia cells in the skin of wounds. Via the utilization of diabetic model mouse, it's proven that the application of ENERGI-F703 gel on wounds can accelerate healing of wounds. The company has initiated a Phase II, multi-centered study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ENERGI-F703 GEL in subjects who are = 20 years old with venous legulcer.EscharEx: Medi WoundEscharEx is a bioactive therapy for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds is a product candidate in advanced stages of development. EscharEx, a concentrate of proteolytic enzymes enriched in bromelain, is an easy to use product candidate, for topical daily applications, which is designed for the outpatient setting in accordance with the current treatment workflow and reimbursement programs. EscharEx has demonstrated in two phase II studies safety and efficacy in the debridement of various chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, with only a few daily applications. As a rapid and effective debridement agent, EscharEx is complementary to the large number of existing advanced wound healing therapies, which require a clean wound bed in order to heal the wound. It is being developed for debridement of chronic and other hard-to-heal wounds, in order to fulfill an unmet medical need for a non-surgical rapid and effective debridementmean.
