Aclerastide (DSC-127; NorLeu-3-A(1-7)) is an angiotensin analogue that is being developed by Derma Sciences (a subsidiary of Integra LifeSciences) for the treatment for wounds such as diabetic foot ulcer and surgical scars. The mechanisms of action include induction of progenitor proliferation, accelerated vascularization, collagen deposition, and re-epithelialization. Aclerastide recently failed in phase III clinical trials for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. Phase I development of aclerastide ophthalmic solution is ongoing in the US.
