Summary

This trial is testing the safety and efficacy of a topical treatment for diabetic foot ulcers.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-80 with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes and a single, non-healing foot ulcer for at least 4 weeks can join. They must have stable blood sugar levels (HbA1c ≤12%) and be able to follow the study plan. Excluded are those with certain infections, recent steroid or investigational drug use, multiple ulcers, specific foot conditions, substance abuse issues, pregnancy, significant other diseases or surgeries affecting healing.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing HO/03/03 at a dose of 10µg against a placebo in treating diabetic foot ulcers. Participants will apply the treatment daily for up to 14 weeks. The study aims to see if HO/03/03 is safe and helps heal these ulcers better than a placebo.
What are the potential side effects?
While the potential side effects of HO/03/03 aren't listed here specifically, common topical medication reactions may include skin irritation at the application site such as redness, itching or rash; allergic reactions could also occur.
