A Multicenter, Open Label Phase 2 Pilot Trial of Subjects With Complex Non-healing Diabetic Foot Ulcers Treated With Standard Care Plus Cryopreserved Umbilical Cord Allograft (TTAX01)

It is hypothesized that application of the human placental umbilical cord tissue TTAX01 to
the surface of a well debrided, complex diabetic foot ulcer will, with concomitant management
of infection, result in a higher proportion of wounds showing complete healing within 16
weeks of initiating therapy.

The hypothesis under study is that one or more applications of TTAX01 to the wound surface of
a well debrided, complex diabetic foot ulcer managed with appropriate antibiotic therapy will
result in a higher probability of complete healing than would be expected from management
with standard care alone. In this open label Phase 2 pilot trial, all subjects will receive
the intervention over a maximum period of 16 weeks. Eligible consenting subjects will undergo
a baseline aggressive debridement in the operating room to remove infected and devitalized
bone and soft tissue. TTAX01 will be applied to the debrided wound bed at baseline, and if
healing is not evident, it will be applied again at 4 week intervals. At each weekly visit
the wound will be further debrided as necessary.

Consenting subjects who qualify for enrollment will undergo an aggressive surgical
debridement at the baseline visit, including biopsies of bone for histology and microbiologic
testing at the start and completion of debridement. Systemic antibiotics will be given
empirically, with adjustments made on the basis of culture and sensitivity results. New or
recurrent infections will be managed with additional debridement and adjustment or addition
of appropriate systemic antibiotics. The test article, TTAX01, will be sutured to the
debrided wound bed at baseline and again at 4 week intervals over the 16 week treatment
period for wounds that do not show evidence of healing. For wounds that do show evidence of
healing, additional applications of TTAX01 will be withheld, based on observations from
retrospective case series.

Subjects whose wounds close prior to 16 weeks will move directly to a 2 week confirmation of
closure period. Subjects whose wounds have not closed by the end of 16 weeks will exit the
trial.

Inclusion Criteria:

- The subject has signed the informed consent form

- The subject is male or female, at least 18 years of age inclusive at the date of
Screening

- The subject has confirmed diagnosis of Type I or Type II diabetes

- The subject's index ulcer is located on the plantar surface, inter digital, heel, or
lateral or medial surface of the foot

- The subject has an index ulcer with visible margins having an area ≥1.0 cm2 to ≤ 10.0
cm2 when measured by the electronic measuring device at Screening

- The subject's index ulcer extends beyond the dermis, into subcutaneous tissue with
evidence of exposed bone, tendon, muscle and/or joint capsule

- The subject presents with history, signs or symptoms leading to a clinical suspicion
of osteomyelitis in the opinion of the Investigator supported by positive Probe to
Bone (PTB) and any of the following: radiographic (x-ray, Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(MRI), or bone scan) or evidence of bone necrosis

- The subject has an Ankle Brachial Index ≥ 0.7 to ≤ 1.3 or TcPO2 ≥ 40 mmHg on the
dorsum of the affected foot, or Great Toe Pressure ≥ 50 mmHg

- The subject is under the care of a physician for the management of Diabetes Mellitus

Exclusion Criteria:

- The subject's index ulcer is primarily located on the dorsal surface of the foot

- The subject's index ulcer can be addressed by primary closure through the completion
of the initial or staged surgical procedure

- The subject has a glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level of > 12%

- The subject has a serum albumin level ≤ 2.0 g/dL

- The subject has a white blood cell count < 2.0 x109/L, neutrophils < 1.0 x109/L, or
platelets < 100 x109/L

- The subject has malignancy or a history of cancer, other than non-melanoma skin
cancer, in five years before Screening

- The subject is pregnant

- The subject is a nursing mother

- The subject's index ulcer is over an active Charcot deformity

- The subject has had previous use of NEOX®, CLARIX®, or TTAX01 applied to the index
ulcer

- Per Investigator's discretion the subject is not appropriate for inclusion in the
trial, e.g., undergoing surgical treatments listed in the protocol or the subject
currently has sepsis
