• Patient any gender between the ages of 18 and under 90 at the time of consent.
• Target ulcer has a minimum area of 1.0 cm2 and a maximum area of 20.0 cm2, measured at screening after sharp debridement, as assessed by computerized planimetry.

• Target ulcer is located on the toe or lateral dorsal, or plantar aspect of the foot with no portion on the ankle.
• Target ulcer is Grade IC (ischemic, non-infected superficial wound) or IIC (ischemic non-infected wound penetrating to tendon or capsule), according to the University of Texas Diabetic Wound Classification system.
• Adequate perfusion without critical limb ischemia, confirmed by vascular assessment of the affected foot through any of the following methods: ABI >0.7
• Confirmed diagnosis of type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus
• Patient has a glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of less than 12%
• If patient has two or more ulcers, they must be separated by at least 2 cm and the largest one will be included as the study DFU though all will be similarly treated

• Presence in target ulcer of cellulitis, osteomyelitis or other clinical evidence of infection at time of enrollment.
• Presence of any foot ulcer (whether or not on the target foot) for which systemic antibiotic treatment is required.
• A history of more than 8 weeks' treatment with immunosuppressants (including systemic corticosteroids), cytotoxic chemotherapy, or application of topical steroids to the ulcer surface within one month prior to initial screening, or treatments with such medications during the screening period.
• Patients with an amputation on the affected foot, if it impedes proper offloading of the target DFU.
• Patients with active Charcot foot, or inactive Charcot foot, if it impedes proper offloading of the target DFU.
