- Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes mellitus
- Presence of one full-thickness DFU located at or below the malleoli (If the subject has more than one DFU that meets eligibility criteria, the investigator will designate one DFU as the target DFU to be treated in the trial)

- Target DFU area between 0.5 - 25 cm2 at screening (Target DFU is ≥ 0.5cm2 after debridement at start of Run-In Phase)
- Adequate vascular perfusion of the target limb (same limb as where the target DFU is located) as evidenced by: either a skin perfusion pressure (SPP) measurement of ≥30mmHg OR an ankle-brachial index (ABI) >0.7 but less than 1.2 or a toe-brachial index (TBI) >0.4 but less than 1.1 or a transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) >40mmHg
Who cannot take part
- Subject who is taking any medications the Investigator believes may interfere with healing of the target DFU
- Participation in another trial with investigational drug or device within the 30 days preceding and during the present trial
- Subject is being treated with systemic corticosteroids (prednisone, dexamethasone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, or similar) >10mg/day for more than 10 days or any dose >30 days
- Active skin cancer, a history of skin cancer or any other localized cancer, precancerous lesions or large moles in the areas to be treated
- Subject who is currently undergoing treatment for an active systemic infection, including osteomyelitis
- Any co-morbid medical condition which places the subject at unreasonable risks in the opinion of the Investigator
- Subject has chronic renal insufficiency requiring dialysis (end stage renal disease)
- Blood chemistry or counts values as follows (based on subject's medical files):; Pre-albumin <10 mg/dL OR albumin <2.8 g/dL; Serum BUN >60 mg/dL; Serum creatinine >4.0 mg/dL; WBC <2.0 x 109/L; Hemoglobin <8.0 g/dL; Absolute neutrophil <1.0 x 109/L; Platelet count <50 x 109/L; HbA1C >12%
- Known pregnancy or lactating
- Wagner Grade 3, 4 or 5
- For subjects in the 2-Week Run-In Phase: more than 30% closure of target DFU at Screening Run-In Phase Visit I or Randomization/Baseline Visit or more than 50% closure of target DFU between the 2 Week Historical Period and Randomization/Baseline Visit (measured post-debridement)
- For subjects in the 4-Week Run-In Phase: more than 30% closure of target DFU at Screening Run-In Visit II or between Screening Run-In Phase Visit II and Randomization/Baseline Visit or more than 50% closure of target DFU between Screening Run-In Phase Visit I and Randomization/Baseline Visit (measured post-debridement)

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the treatment with the COMS One device in subjects with refractory diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). The prospective randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled trial is designed to demonstrate superiority of wound closure of the COMS One device to a sham-control device through 24 weeks post-application, when each is administered in conjunction with standard of care (SOC) in the treatment of DFUs.
The 2 groups in the trial
- COMS One deviceExisting treatment, for comparison
The COMS One device is the housing unit for the user controls, displays and functions including embedded software, lithium-ion battery, optical (LEDs) and a magnetic stimulation coil. The COMS One device is reusable (the component can be used on multiple subjects and is cleaned between uses). The COMStouch is a sterile single-use component. The COMStouch provides a base and sterile barrier for the COMS One device. The COMSfix component is a self-adhesive single-use strap used to hold the COMS One device and COMStouch components in place during treatment.
- Sham deviceSham treatment, for comparison
The sham device is the housing unit for the user controls, displays and functions including embedded software, lithium-ion battery, optical (LEDs) and a magnetic stimulation coil. The sham device is reusable (the component can be used on multiple subjects and is cleaned between uses). The COMStouch is a sterile single-use component. The COMStouch provides a base and sterile barrier for the sham device. The COMSfix component is a self-adhesive single-use strap used to hold the sham device and COMStouch components in place during treatment.
