This is a prospective, open, non-controlled clinical investigation to evaluate the performance and safety of using Mepilex Transfer Ag on a malignant wound. Approximately ten to fifteen (10-15) subjects from one to three centers in Europe, presenting with a malignant (fungating) wound will be enrolled into the study.
