Brief Summary  

It is a double blind, parallel group Multicentric study in which 92 patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcer will be enrolled.  The study involves two treatment groups:

Group A: GRANEXIN GEL plus standard of care in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer

Group B: Standard of care in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer.

The patients would be treated with 100 μM concentration of GRANEXIN GEL will be applied at Day 0, Day 3, Week 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 along with standard of care and the control group would be treated with standard care alone. The endpoint of the study would be, mean percent of wound closure from baseline, Subject self-assessment of intensity of pain, and complete wound closure, defined as 100% epithelialization of the wound and the absence of drainage from the wound.
