Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients must satisfy all of the following criteria to be included in the study: 1. A signed and dated informed consent form and audio- visual consent has been obtained from the patient 2. Patient is able and willing to comply with study procedures 3. Males or females (willing to use accepted methods of contraception during the course of the study) in the age group of 18-70 years 4. Patient has type 2 diabetes mellitus 5. HbA1c, less than or equal to 10% 6. Presence of single non-healing DFU in the target limb that meets all of the following criteria: a) Ulcer in the plantar surface of the foot b) Ulcer has been diagnosed as a full-thickness DFU c) Ulcer size (area) between 1 to 8 cm2 (both inclusive) (post-debridement at the time of screening) d) Wagner grade 1 at initialization of the clinical trial (ulcer should not have evidence of exposed muscle, tendon, bone or joint capsule) e) Non healing study ulcer for the duration of at least 4 weeks at the time of the screening visit (to be confirmed by the investigator during interviewing the patient- documented evidence in the form of hospital records / prescription from the doctor is required) 7. Patient has adequate vascular perfusion of the affected limb, as defined by Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) = 0.7 and 1.3 then Toe Brachial Index (TBI) will be performed and TBI should be = 0.5 8. Patient or responsible caregiver is willing and able to maintain the required off-loading (as applicable for the location of the ulcer) and applicable dressing changes INCLUSION CRITERIA AT RANDOMIZATION 1. Presence of single non-healing DFU in the target limb that meets all of the following criteria: a) Ulcer in the plantar surface of the foot b) Ulcer has been diagnosed as a full-thickness DFU c) Ulcer size (area) between 1 to 8 cm2 (both inclusive) (post-debridement if clinically indicated at the time of randomization) d) Wagner grade 1 at initialization of the clinical trial (ulcer should not have evidence of exposed muscle, tendon, bone or joint capsule) e) Ulcer which is non infected

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients may not be selected if any of the following criteria are present 1. Patients with type I diabetes mellitus 2. Patients with 2 or more ulcers in the target limb 3.

Patient has been treated with wound dressings that include growth factors, engineered tissues, or skin substitutes within 30 days of screening 21. Patient has been treated with hyperbaric oxygen within 5 days of screening. 22. Patient has suspected or confirmed signs/symptoms of gangrene or acute wound infection or cellulitis on any part of the affected limb. (Patients with wound infection at the screening visit may be treated and re-screened for participation in the study after eradication of the infection; the affected limb should be clinically free of infection). 23. Patients who have clinically serious and/or unstable inter-cu
