Orpyx Medical Technologies Supplies Digital Health Platform for NIH-Funded and Johns Hopkins Medicine–Led Clinical Trial on Diabetic Foot Ulcer Prevention

Calgary, AB Canada – November 13, 2025 — Orpyx® Medical Technologies Inc. announced today that its sensory insoles, analytics platform, and remote monitoring program will be used in a new clinical trial funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The WIREDUP: Wearable Insoles for Recurrent Diabetic Ulcer Prevention study will be led by Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, with collaborators from Keck Medicine of USC and the University of Utah Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine.

The $5 million R01-funded randomized controlled trial will enroll 400 participants to test whether integrating digital foot monitoring into routine care can help reduce the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), one of the most costly and serious complications of diabetes. More than 80% of lower extremity amputations are preceded by a DFU, making prevention a critical research priority.

Orpyx is providing the full digital health platform for the study, which includes sensory insoles to capture plantar pressure, temperature, and activity data; analytics to identify patterns of concern; and a remote monitoring program to enable timely escalation of care. Study oversight, data collection, and analysis will remain entirely with the independent academic research team.
