Brief Summary
The primary objective of this Phase 2 study is to evaluate the efficacy of DCB-WH1 ointment in wound closure as compared to vehicle control when applied topically to chronic diabetic foot ulcers for 12 weeks. The secondary objective of this study is to collect safety information of DCB-WH1 ointment. This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, vehicle-controlled, multi-center study of DCB-WH1 ointment applied topically to grade 1 foot ulcers (according to Wagner grading system) in 50 subjects with diabetes mellitus.

- The target ulcer is classified as a grade 1 ulcer according to a modified Wagner system, which includes wounds involving the epidermis, the dermis, the hypodermis or the subcutaneous fat but not the tendon or joint capsule. The thickness of aforesaid layers wounds be approximately between 0.2 mm and 8 mm and is ranging in size between 3 and 15 cm2 post debridement.
- An ankle brachial index ≥0.80.

- Requiring treatment with corticosteroids, immunosuppressive or chemotherapeutic agents, radiotherapy.
- Presence of necrosis, purulence or sinus tracts that cannot be removed by debridement.
- Presence of connective tissue disease, renal failure (\*eGFR≦30 ml/min/1.73m2), abnormal liver function (Aspartate Aminotransferase(AST), Alanine Aminotransferase(ALT)\>2.5x upper limit of normal range), malignancy.
