Affected 
Section(s) 
Summary of Revisions Made 
Rationale 
1.1 
Updated study population to 36 patients with 
approximately 12 sites 
Adjusted study population based on the 
projected number of clinical sites to 
participate, and to enroll 3 patients/site 
3.0, 8.1.1 
Updated safety endpoint to include proportion of 
subjects who experience subsequent limb 
amputation 
Updated safety endpoint to distinguish initial 
amputation completed at the Initial Procedure 
Visit and any subsequent limb amputation that 
would discontinue the subject per section 7.2 
5.2 
Removed previous exclusion #1 ‘the subject has 
another ulcer within 3cm of the index ulcer 
 
Removed previous exclusion #10 ‘The subject 
has tested positive for HIV or has AIDS’ 
Since there is no worsening criterion of the 
index ulcer, any ulcer within close proximity 
to the index ulcer would be surgically 
addressed at the Initial Procedure Visit. 
Allowing patients with HIV or AIDS since 
there are no contraindications with TTAX01

PROTOCOL SUMMARY 
1.1 SYNOPSIS  
Title: 
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) 
 
Study Description: 
It is hypothesized that application at 4-week intervals 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. This 
open label pilot study provides a framework for a larger, controlled 
study. The purpose for conducting this study is to evaluate the 
functionality of the protocol, and to obtain an estimate of product safety 
and efficacy when applied according to the protocol instructions, and 
measured according to the stated endpoints.  
 
Objectives: 
 
Primary Objective:  To examine the safety and estimate the efficacy of 
TTAX01 plus standard care (SC) in achieving complete wound closure 
of complex non-healing diabetic foot ulcers with high risk factors of [1] 
ulcer depth indicating exposed bone, tendon, muscle, and/or joint 
capsule and [2] clinical suspicion of osteomyelitis. 
 
 
Summary of Secondary Objectives: To examine alternative measures 
of wound healing, progress towards healing, and healing among stated 
subsets, as well as to estimate the influence of treatment on rates of 
amputation. 
 
Endpoints: 
Primary Endpoint: Proportion of subjects with complete wound healing 
by Treatment Week 16 
 
Secondary Endpoints: Various associated measures such as time to 
heal, proportion healed by week, and wound area reduction.  
 
Study Population: 
Approximately 36 adults aged 18 years and older, with diabetes mellitus 
types 1 or 2, and non-ischemic, non-dorsal diabetic foot ulcer 
measuring 1-10 cm2 inclusive with evidence of exposed bone, tendon, 
muscle and/or joint capsule and presumptive evidence of osteomyelitis. 
 
Phase:

Description of 
Sites/Facilities 
Enrolling 
Participants: 
Approximately twelve sites specializing in care of diabetic foot ulcers, 
including inpatient hospital and outpatient based wound practices to 
include podiatric office practices, wound care centers, dermatology and 
vascular surgery clinics.

Description of Study 
Intervention: 
All subjects will receive aggressive debridement at baseline, followed 
by standard care supplemented with TTAX01, a cryopreserved human 
umbilical cord product derived from human placental tissue. Test article 
is applied and surgically fixed in direct contact with the wound surface, 
at 4 week intervals unless healing is evident, or when replacement of 
dislodged material is necessary.  
 
Study Duration: 
Estimated time from first subject eligible and enrolled to completion of 
statistical analysis is 18 months. 
 
Participant Duration: 
The maximum time in study for any subject will be 21 weeks, with 1 
week in screening and assuming wound healing occurs at week 16 
followed by 2 weeks of observation for confirmation of closure, and a 
final exit visit 14 days later.

INTRODUCTION 
 
2.1 STUDY RATIONALE  
 
According to the United States (US) Centers for Disease Control, there were 29.1 million 
Americans of all ages or 9.3% of the population in 2014 who had diabetes (1) either diagnosed or 
undiagnosed, a figure that has increased by fivefold since 1980 (2). An estimated 21 million 
persons were diagnosed with the disease, while an additional 8.1 million remain undiagnosed (1). 
By 2050, as many as 1 out of every 3 adults in the US could have diabetes if the trend continues 
(2).  
One of the most prevalent complications of diabetes is the diabetic foot ulcer. Diabetic persons 
have approximately 25% risk of developing a foot ulcer in their lifetime (3) with an estimated 
annual incidence rate of 0.5-3.0% (4-8). When the ulcer is non-healing, the dermal first line of 
defense is compromised for a prolonged period and the patient is susceptible to tissue loss that 
leads to limb amputation. Indeed, foot ulceration is the most common single precursor of lower 
extremity amputations among persons with diabetes and is a precursor to approximately 85% of 
the lower extremity amputations within this population (3, 9-20). In the US, diabetes has been the 
most common underlying cause of non-traumatic lower extremity amputations (21, 22); more than 
60% of non-traumatic lower extremity amputations occur in diabetic persons (1). 
Over 73,000 non-traumatic lower-limb amputations are performed in the US for people with 
diabetes annually (1). Unfortunately, after one major lower extremity amputation, the 5-year 
survival rate is estimated to be 50% (14, 15), worse than those of most malignancies and second 
only to that of lung cancer (14, 16). Moreover, once amputation occurs, 50% of the patients will 
develop an ulcer in the contralateral limb within 5 years (15). For amputation survivors, day-to-
day functioning is greatly impaired.  Many cannot walk, with or without the use of a cane or 
walker. A study found that in 2010, 22.8% of patients undergoing amputation of a lower extremity 
in the US were readmitted to the hospital within 30 days, the highest rate of re-admission among 
the procedures considered in the study (23). Moreover, even with the best of medical care, 
amputation and its aftermath are traumatic experiences that can be expected to produce depression 
as the patient copes with the social and financial consequences of disfigurement and loss of 
function. Collectively, one can envision a grave picture of the seriousness of the complex non-
healing foot ulcers that carry these high risks that may lead to amputation in this country and 
worldwide. 
Three major risk factors, i.e., [1] ulcer depth, [2] infection, and [3] ischemia, have been recognized 
to complicate non-healing foot ulcers leading to limb amputation (17). The first risk factor is “ulcer 
depth”. This clinical trial will enroll patients with the ulcer depth exhibiting exposed bone, tendon, 
muscle and/or joint capsule. It has been well known that these deep ulcers with extensive tissue 
loss are at high risk for infection-related ulcer complications including osteomyelitis (24).

The second risk factor is “infection”. While infection is not often implicated in the pathway leading 
to ulceration, it is a major risk factor in the causal pathway to amputation (25, 26). Contiguous 
spread of any infection of adjacent soft tissue into the bone of the foot will complicate the ulcer, 
predisposing the patient to risk of osteomyelitis (18),(19). Foot ulcers accompanied by limb-
threatening infections such as osteomyelitis have reported amputation rate as high as 51% (27-29). 
Indeed, the presence of an infection is a major predisposing factor for diabetic foot amputations, 
as 85% of these amputations are preceded by an infection (21, 30, 31). The risk of amputation 
increases by four times when the foot ulcer is complicated by osteomyelitis compared to soft tissue 
infection alone (32).  
The third risk factor is “ischemia”. Critical limb ischemia (CLI) has been used to denote a subgroup 
of patients with a threatened lower extremity primarily due to chronic ischemia. Foot ulcers 
complicated by ischemia have been reported to have an amputation rate of between 17-23% and a 
mortality rate of 33% (33, 34). Because CLI will compromise wound healing and because the 
standard of care calls for vascular consultation as well as potential revascularization procedures to 
address limb ischemia (17), clinical trials conducted under the Sponsor’s IND exemption will only 
enroll those patients with diabetic foot ulcer in which the vascular perfusion status is adequate to 
support healing.  
Collectively, the Inclusion and Exclusion criteria stated in this protocol allow us to enroll patients 
with a chronic diabetic foot ulcer that carries the severity of Wagner Grade 3 or worse (on a scale 
of 0 to 5 based on Wagner Classification System). This open label pilot study is intended to 
examine the operational aspects of a proposed Phase 3 pivotal trial, including ease of compliance 
with various decision points in the protocol (e.g., antibiotic use, debridement in the operating room, 
whether to treat with TTAX01 or withhold treatment), and to provide a refined estimate of 
treatment response.  
 
2.2 BACKGROUND  
 
Although new advances in wound care products include advanced skin substitutes and 
recombinant growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor, none of these products are 
indicated for treating complex wounds presenting with osteomyelitis. In addition, the vast 
majority have not been demonstrated to be safe or effective in the treatment of complex non-
healing ulcers that have a depth exhibiting exposed bone, tendon, muscle, and/or joint capsule. 
Apligraf® and Dermagraft® are not indicated for ulcers with exposed bone, tendon, muscle, and/or 
joint capsule and are contraindicated for use on clinically infected ulcers or manifesting ischemia 
(e.g., Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) less than 0.60) or infection (e.g., osteomyelitis). Exposure of 
bone, tendon, muscle, and/or joint capsule, ischemic wounds (e.g., ABI less than 0.60), clinically 
infected ulcers and osteomyelitis are the exclusion criteria in clinical trials of various advanced 
skin substitutes approved for chronic foot ulcers of various etiologies. Only Theraskin® carries 
indication for use in exposed tendon, joint and/or bone. It should be noted that the approval of 
Theraskin® is supported by a retrospective observational study or clinical case studies (35-37) 
rather than a prospective randomized and controlled clinical trial. In one study of 188 patients

muscle and/or joint capsule and [2] clinical suspicion of osteomyelitis, so as to reduce the 
likelihood of ulcer-related complications including limb amputation. 
 
2.3 RISK/BENEFIT ASSESSMENT   
 
2.3.1 KNOWN POTENTIAL RISKS  
 
The major risk associated with use of human tissue as a temporary, non-engrafting therapeutic is 
the transmission of infectious agents. (63) This risk is minimized though careful donor screening 
and Good Tissue Practices. Decellularization removes any risk of potential graft vs. host reactions. 
A review of the literature indicates that various cell and tissue based products tested as therapeutics 
for non-healing wounds show no differences in adverse event profile compared with standard care 
(SC). Two ongoing controlled trials of NEOX® CORD 1K® for treatment of DFU show no pattern 
of treatment emergent adverse events associated with use of the product (NCT02166294, 
NCT02707406). The procedures required by the protocol are standard practice in the care of 
diabetic foot ulcers. 
 
2.3.2 KNOWN POTENTIAL BENEFITS  
 
Three published retrospective case series provide an estimate of the complete healing rate when 
treating chronic DFU with NEOX® CORD 1K®, a marketed HCT/P 361 product identical to the 
test article TTAX01, with the exception that TTAX01 will be released against identity, potency 
and purity specifications put in place under Good Manufacturing Practices.

The anticipated immediate benefit is healing of the open diabetic foot ulcer. The associated long 
term benefit is expected to be a reduced risk of amputation. In the published experience of Caputo 
(64), only one of 15 planned amputations was necessary following intervention with NEOX® 
CORD 1K®. 
 
2.3.3 ASSESSMENT OF POTENTIAL RISKS AND BENEFITS  
 
The standard care provided in this protocol is based on guidelines and recommendations from 
experts in the field of diabetic foot ulcer care. The initial aggressive debridement in an operating 
room is considered best practice for the type of wounds being studied, which extend to deep 
subdermal structures and include evidence of associated osteomyelitis. All investigators are skilled

in five years before Screening  
10. The subject is pregnant  
11. The subject is a nursing mother 
12. The subject is a woman of child-bearing potential who is unwilling to avoid pregnancy or 
use an appropriate form of birth control (adequate birth control methods are defined as: 
topical, oral, implantable, or injectable contraceptives; spermicide in conjunction with a

18. 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, i.e., 
life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection 
 
5.3 LIFESTYLE CONSIDERATIONS 
 
Subjects are expected to maintain ongoing care and management of their diabetes under the 
supervision of a qualified diabetologist, endocrinologist or internist with appropriate specialty 
training and experience. The need for offloading of the wound requires compliance with daily 
wearing of the offloading device, which may limit ambulation to some degree. 
 
5.4 SCREEN FAILURES 
 
Screen failures are defined as potential subjects who consent to participate in the trial but are not 
subsequently entered. Screen failure information will be captured to ensure transparent reporting 
of screen failure participants, to meet the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 
publishing requirements and to respond to queries from regulatory authorities. Minimal 
information includes demography, screen failure details, eligibility criteria, and any serious 
adverse event (SAE). 
 
Individuals who do not meet the criteria for participation in this trial because of an abnormal lab 
test result, wound size out of range, current treatment with an excluded medication or inadequate

Handling Instructions for the test article are as follows: 
  
1. If frozen, allow TTAX01 to sit at controlled room temperature in its original unopened 
packaging for at least 5 minutes. 
2. Open the outer foil peel pouch and present the clear inner peel pouch to the sterile field 
using aseptic techniques. 
3. Open the inner clear peel pouch to retrieve the TTAX01. 
4. Secure the TTAX01 on the wound bed. 
 
6.3 MEASURES TO MINIMIZE BIAS 
 
The trial is open label, with no blinding of the site staff. All eligible subjects will be enrolled into 
a single active treatment arm. The determination of wound closure will be made by the Investigator 
based on visual and tactile assessment of the wound. High quality photographic images will be 
taken at each visit, from an angle and distance recommended for optimum computerized 
calculation of wound area. In the event that the Investigator determines that a wound is completely 
healed, several additional images will be acquired at different angles in order to observe surface 
reflection of light from newly formed epithelium, and the absence of exudate. An independent 
reviewer will examine the first photographic image in order to make a determination of wound 
closure. If this opinion is concordant with the Investigator’s opinion, the wound will be recorded 
as healed. If the independent reviewer finds reason to disagree with the Investigator, a third 
independent reviewer will examine all of the photographs for the purpose of breaking the tie.  
 
6.4 STUDY INTERVENTION COMPLIANCE 
 
The Investigator is responsible for ensuring that the treatment and follow-up procedures are 
followed as laid out in this protocol, unless a deviation is needed to protect the health and welfare 
of a subject.  Such deviations should promptly be reported to the Sponsor or their designee and 
may also require reporting to the IRB.   
 
Protocol compliance by the Investigator and site staff will be monitored by routine site visits 
conducted by the Sponsor, the frequency of which will be determined by any findings of issues as 
outlined in a separate detailed monitoring plan. All subjects will be provided with instructions 
which may include written materials on how to off-load correctly. Subject compliance will be 
based on observation of the offloading device at each visit for evidence of wear, by queries 
regarding excluded concomitant medications / therapies, and queries regarding dosing of any 
antibiotics. No blood testing or other test procedure will be utilized for determination of 
compliance. Diaries will not be used.

6.5 CONCOMITANT THERAPY 
 
Systemic anti-microbials may be used as prescribed. Wound cleansing with a neutral, non-
irritating and non-toxic solution is recommended at the discretion of the Investigator. Sterile saline, 
non-ionic cleanser, or hypochlorous acid are recommended. 
Canagliflozin, a type 2 diabetic medication, also referred to as Invokana, Invokamet, and 
Invokamet XR, is not permitted throughout the duration of the screening, treatment and 
confirmation of closure periods. 
Concomitant therapies for treating the index ulcer other than those defined in the protocol will not 
be permitted during the treatment and confirmation of closure period. They include topical 
antibiotics, antiseptic agents including hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, chlorhexidine, 
povidone/iodine, and cetrimide, enzymes, negative pressure wound therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, 
growth factors, living skin, dermal substitutes, silver-containing products, amniotic membrane or 
umbilical cord products or other advanced biological therapies, or revascularization procedures 
(e.g., endoscopic perforator surgery, superficial venous ablation, endovenous laser ablation, 
valvuloplasty, free flap transfer with microvascular anastomoses), and Achilles tendon 
lengthening.

DISCONTINUATION/WITHDRAWAL 
  
7.1 DISCONTINUATION OF STUDY INTERVENTION 
 
Given that the manufacturing method of the test article is similar to the commercial product 
NEOX® CORD 1K®, which has an outstanding safety record, there is no a priori expectation of 
needing to suspend or terminate the trial for unexpected adverse events.  
 
7.2 PARTICIPANT DISCONTINUATION/WITHDRAWAL FROM THE STUDY 
 
All subjects have the right to discontinue the trial at any time. The Investigator may also withdraw 
a subject from the trial at any time if they deem it medically necessary. The reason for 
discontinuation should be documented and trial staff should attempt to bring the subject in for an 
Early Termination Visit and perform all applicable assessments as appropriate listed under the End 
of Treatment Period Visit (Visit 19) for discontinuations that occur during the Treatment Period. 
Subjects may be discontinued from the trial for the following reasons: 
• 
Adverse Event (including illness)

• 
Subject withdrawal of consent 
• 
The Sponsor or Investigator terminates the trial 
• 
Lost to follow-up 
• 
Product-related > Grade 2 skin or systemic allergic reaction 
• 
Ulcer-related complications (i.e., life-threatening, infection-related sepsis complications) 
• 
Subsequent limb amputation (i.e., full amputation involving the index ulcer anatomic 
location) 
 
In the event of a subject’s withdrawal, the Investigator will promptly notify the medical monitor 
and will make every effort to complete all procedures at either the End of Treatment Period Visit. 
Even if removed subjects have been removed from the trial or if an adverse event remains ongoing, 
Investigators should follow up with subjects as per their standard medical practice. 
Discontinued subjects will not be replaced.  Simultaneous screening at multiple sites may result in 
an allowable modest over-enrollment. 
7.3 LOST TO FOLLOW-UP 
 
If a subject is lost to follow-up, a minimum of three documented contact attempts including one 
certified letter should be in the records. If there is not contact made by the subject after sending 
the certified letter, the next of kin and the physician responsible for managing the subject’s diabetes 
should be contacted to obtain information about the subject’s current health status.

8.1 STUDY ACTIVITIES BY VISIT 
 
8.1.1 SCREENING PERIOD (WITHIN -7 DAYS FROM INITIAL PROCEDURE 
VISIT) 
 
[Purpose]: To determine the trial eligibility by assessing all inclusion/exclusion criteria based on 
the medical information available, clinical assessment, clinical laboratory testing, imaging studies 
and interview with subject. 
Each subject who enters Screening will be assigned a subject ID number for traceability.  The 
subject ID will consist of a 2-digit site number and a 3-digit subject number (i.e. 01-001, etc.). 
Any subject who signs an informed consent, but fails to meet the required eligibility criteria is 
considered to be a Screen Failure. Screen Failure subjects should have their demographic 
information captured with the reason for screen failure specified. If a subject fails to meet all 
criteria after two screening attempts, the subject may not be enrolled into the trial. A new informed 
consent is required for each screening attempt. All procedures, excluding qualifying lab and

An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence temporally associated with the use of an 
investigational medicinal product, whether or not considered causally related to that product. An 
AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (for example, an abnormal laboratory finding), 
symptom, or disease. The Investigator, or his/her designee, will document AEs.  AE data will be 
entered onto the appropriate source and electronic case report form (eCRF). Adverse events will 
be coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). 
All AEs should be followed during the trial period. The Investigator should use his/her discretion 
in ordering additional tests as necessary to monitor the resolution of such events. Event outcome 
at resolution or at time of last follow up will be recorded as event resolved, resolved with sequelae, 
ongoing at discontinuation, or death. Investigators should continue to follow up events of concern 
outside of the trial per their standard of care. The trial database may be finalized in these cases 
with events noted as ongoing. 
The Investigator should consider adverse events both as they relate to the investigational product 
and as they relate to the procedures involved in the trial such as debriding tissue. The Investigator 
is responsible for determining initial relationship, expectedness, and severity of adverse events. 
All adverse events must be reported regardless of whether or not they are considered to be related 
to the test article. 
 
8.4.2 DEFINITION OF SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS (SAE)  
 
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined by federal regulation as any AE occurring at any dose 
that results in any of the following outcomes: death, life-threatening AE, requires hospitalization 
or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a 
congenital anomaly/birth defect. 
Important medical events that may not result in death, be life threatening, or require hospitalization 
may be considered an SAE when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, they may jeopardize 
the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed 
in this definition. Examples of such medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring 
intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not 
result in subject hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse. 
 
8.4.3 CLASSIFICATION OF AN ADVERSE EVENT 
 
8.4.3.1 SEVERITY OF EVENT 
 
The severity of all AE, will be assessed by the Investigator and should be classified as mild, 
moderate, or severe.  Severity will be graded according to the following definitions: 

Open Label Phase 2 Pilot of TTAX01 in Complex DFU 
Version 1.1 
Protocol 1501 
05-FEB-2018 
TissueTech, Inc. 
CONFIDENTIAL 
34 
• Mild: The subject experiences awareness of symptoms but these are easily tolerated or 
managed without specific treatment. 
• Moderate: The subject experiences discomfort enough to cause interference with usual 
activity, and/or the condition requires specific treatment. 
• Severe: The subject is incapacitated with inability to work or do usual activity, and/or the 
event requires significant treatment measures. 
 
8.4.3.2 RELATIONSHIP TO STUDY INTERVENTION 
The relationship of the event to the investigational product should be determined by the Principal 
Investigator according to the following criteria: 
Not Related: The event is most likely produced by other factors such as the subject’s clinical 
condition, intercurrent illness, or concomitant drugs, and does not follow a known response 
pattern to the trial product which makes a causal relationship unlikely. 
Related: The event follows a temporal relationship or known response pattern to the trial 
product, and cannot be reasonably explained by other factors such as the subject's clinical 
condition, intercurrent illness, or concomitant drugs.   
 
8.4.3.3 EXPECTEDNESS  
 
As with the use of any human tissue, the possibility of infectious agent transmission cannot be 
completely eliminated although all screening and microbial testing results were satisfactory for the 
tissue and tissue donor. Possible significant adverse events include microbial infection and 
transmission of viral disease. 
 
Expected adverse events non-related to the product are those post-surgical conditions consistent 
with any dermal debridement and excoriation of an ulcer. Potential adverse events for all research 
subjects in this trial intrinsic to the nature of DFUs: bleeding, hematoma, cellulitis, pain, 
deteriorating ulcer exudation, erythema, edema, infections including deep tissue infections 
(osteomyelitis), and occurrence of new ulcers. 
8.4.4 TIME PERIOD AND FREQUENCY FOR EVENT ASSESSMENT AND 
FOLLOW-UP 
The occurrence of an adverse event (AE) or serious adverse event (SAE) may come to the attention 
of study personnel during study visits and interviews of a study participant presenting for medical 
care, or upon review by a study monitor. 
 
All AEs including local and systemic reactions not meeting the criteria for SAEs will be captured 
on the appropriate case report form (CRF). Information to be collected includes event description, 
date of onset, clinician’s assessment of severity, relationship to study product (assessed only by 
those with the training and authority to make a diagnosis) confirmed by the Principal Investigator, 

Open Label Phase 2 Pilot of TTAX01 in Complex DFU 
Version 1.1 
Protocol 1501 
05-FEB-2018 
TissueTech, Inc. 
CONFIDENTIAL 
35 
and date of resolution/stabilization of the event. All AEs occurring while on study must be 
documented appropriately regardless of relationship.  
 
Any medical condition that is present at the time that the participant is screened will be considered 
as baseline medical history and not reported as an AE. However, if the study participant’s condition 
deteriorates at any time during the study, it will be recorded as an AE.  
 
Changes in the severity of an AE will be documented to allow an assessment of the duration of the 
event at each level of severity to be performed. AEs characterized as intermittent require 
documentation of onset and duration of each episode. 
 
The Investigator will record all reportable events with start dates occurring any time after informed 
consent is obtained until the final study visit.  At each study visit, the investigator will inquire 
about the occurrence of AE/SAEs since the last visit.  Event outcome at resolution or at time of 
last follow up will be recorded as “event resolved”, “resolved with sequelae”, “ongoing at 
discontinuation”, or “death”. 
 
8.4.5 ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING  
 
Disease Related Events expected in this population (angina, neuropathy, nephropathy, urinary tract 
infection, erectile dysfunction, retinopathy, hypoglycemic events) may be reported by the 
investigator if they differ in nature or frequency from what is expected, or if they appear to have a 
causal relationship to the test article. All adverse events must be reported in the subject’s source 
documents, and recorded on an Adverse Event Case Report Form regardless of whether or not they 
are considered to be related to the test article.    
 
8.4.6 SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING  
 
In the event of any SAE reported or observed during the trial, whether or not attributable to the 
trial product, the Investigator, or designee, shall report the event to the medical monitor within 24 
hours being made aware of the event.  An initial report should be made with the understanding that 
it may be lacking in details.   
A Serious Adverse Event Form must be completed for all serious adverse events and submitted 
within 24 hours of the Investigator's knowledge of the event and to the Institutional Review 
Board/Independent Ethics Committee, according to their reporting requirements. When new 
significant information is obtained as well as when the outcome of an event is known, the 
Investigator must provide this information as soon as it becomes available. Depending on the 
nature of the adverse event, copies of the subject’s medical records as well as results of any relevant 
laboratory tests performed maybe required to be submitted. If the subject was hospitalized, a copy 
of the discharge summary should be forwarded as soon as it becomes available. In certain cases, a 
letter from the Investigator that summarizes the events related to the case may be required. 
Serious adverse events must be reported using the eCRF system (preferred), or via telephone or 
email, to the following representative within 24 hours of the Investigator's knowledge of the event:

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS  
 
9.1 STATISTICAL HYPOTHESES 
 
This pilot study will utilize descriptive statistics in the analysis and reporting of observed 
outcomes, to be described in greater detail in a separate Statistical Analysis Plan. 
 
9.2 SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATION 
 
It is expected that 47 potential subjects will be screened in order to find 36 who qualify for this 
trial (screen failure rate 30%). The target number 36 is selected based on the law of large numbers, 
which holds that sample sizes less than 25 are more likely to produce skewed distributions of 
observed values, while sample sizes greater than 25 should generate a bell shaped distribution of 
observed values whose mean approaches the expected value as sample size increases.  
The dropout rate is expected to be ~10%. As numbers between 25 and 30 should yield reasonably 
equivalent estimates of efficacy, there is no plan to replace dropouts. 
 
9.3  POPULATIONS FOR ANALYSES 
 
The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) population will consist of all enrolled subjects. The ITT population is 
the primary efficacy population and will be used to conduct all analyses on primary and secondary 
efficacy endpoints. 
The Per Protocol (PP) population is a subset of subjects in the ITT and is the secondary efficacy 
population.  The PP population will be defined as all qualified and treated subjects meeting 
inclusion and exclusion criteria and completing the study treatment as planned in the protocol, 
with no major protocol deviations during the 16-week Treatment Period. Major protocol deviations 
will be determined by the trial clinical team prior to database lock. Subjects found to have major 
protocol deviations will be excluded from the PP population. 
The Safety Population includes all subjects who underwent treatment, regardless of protocol 
compliance. The Safety Population will be used for the analysis of safety endpoints. 
 
9.4 STATISTICAL ANALYSES 
 
9.4.1 GENERAL APPROACH 
 
Categorical data will be presented as percentages. Continuous data will be presented as means ± 
standard deviation, median and range.

Consent forms will be Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved and the participant will be asked 
to read and review the document. The investigator will explain the research study to the participant 
and answer any questions that may arise. A verbal explanation will be provided in terms suited to 
the participant’s comprehension of the purposes, procedures, and potential risks of the study and 
of their rights as research participants.  Participants will have the opportunity to carefully review 
the written consent form and ask questions prior to signing. The participants will have the 
opportunity to discuss the study with their family or surrogates or think about it prior to agreeing 
to participate. Participants will be informed that participation is voluntary and that they may 
withdraw from the study at any time, without prejudice. A copy of the informed consent document 
will be given to the participants for their records. The informed consent process will be conducted 
and documented in the source document (including the date), and the form signed, before the 
participant undergoes any study-specific procedures. The rights and welfare of the participants will 
be protected by emphasizing to them that the quality of their medical care will not be adversely 
affected if they decline to participate in this study. 
 
 
Only authorized trial staff should obtain consent and the most currently approved IRB consent 
form must be used. 
10.1.2 STUDY DISCONTINUATION AND CLOSURE 
 
The trial may be terminated at any time by the Sponsor if serious side effects occur, if the 
Investigator does not adhere to the protocol, or if, in the Sponsor’s judgment, there are no further 
benefits to be achieved from the trial. In the event that the clinical development of the 
investigational product is discontinued, the Sponsor shall inform all trial Investigators/institutions 
and regulatory authorities. 
To ensure subject safety, the following approach is included to allow suspension or termination of 
the trial should a serious unforeseen risk arise: in the event that there are 2 reports of the same 
serious, unexpected and related adverse event, the Medical Monitor will within 5 calendar days of 
notification of the second event make a recommendation to Sponsor senior management  whether 
to enhance surveillance, suspend enrollment, halt all further exposures, terminate the trial or 
continue without change. 
If suspended, the trial may resume once concerns about safety, protocol compliance, and data 
quality are addressed, and satisfy the sponsor, IRB and/or FDA. 
 
10.1.3 CONFIDENTIALITY AND PRIVACY  
 
Subject confidentiality and privacy is strictly held in trust by the participating investigators, their 
staff, and the sponsor. This confidentiality is extended to cover testing of biological samples in 
addition to the clinical information relating to subjects. Therefore, the study protocol, 
documentation, data, and all other information generated will be held in strict confidence. No 
information concerning the study or the data will be released to any unauthorized third party 
without prior written approval of the sponsor.

Data collection is the responsibility of the clinical trial staff at the site under the supervision of the 
site investigator. Refer to the eCRF completion guidelines for eCRF completion, correction, and 
transmission procedures. The investigator is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, 
legibility, and timeliness of the data reported.  
 
All source documents should be completed in a neat, legible manner to ensure accurate 
interpretation of data. Hardcopies of study visit worksheets may be provided for use as source 
document worksheets for recording data for each participant enrolled in the study.  Data recorded 
in the electronic case report form (eCRF) derived from source documents should be consistent 
with the data recorded on the source documents.  
 
Clinical data (including adverse events (AEs), concomitant medications, and expected adverse 
reactions data) and clinical laboratory data will be entered via eDC into iMedNet, a 21 CFR Part 
11-compliant data capture system provided by MedNet Solutions. The data system includes 
password protection and internal quality checks, such as automatic range checks, to identify data 
that appear inconsistent, incomplete, or inaccurate. Clinical data will be entered directly from the 
source documents. 
 
10.1.9.2 STUDY RECORDS RETENTION  
 
All records and documents pertaining to the trial including, but not limited to, data and source 
documents, will be maintained by the Investigator for a period of 10 years after completion of the 
trial or for a period of at least 2 years following the removal of an IND, whichever is longer. If the 
Investigator retires, relocates, or for any other reason withdraws from responsibility of keeping the 
study records, custody must be transferred to the Sponsor or to a person who will accept 
responsibility and is approved by the Sponsor. In order to avoid any possible errors, the 
Investigator will contact the Sponsor prior to the destruction of any trial records.  The Investigator 
will promptly notify the Sponsor in the event of accidental loss or destruction of any trial records. 
 
10.1.9.3 PROTOCOL DEVIATIONS  
 
A protocol deviation is any noncompliance with the clinical trial protocol or ICH GCP 
requirements. The noncompliance may be either on the part of the participant, the investigator, or 
the study site staff. As a result of serious or repeated deviations, corrective and preventative actions 
are to be developed by the site and implemented promptly.  
 
It is the responsibility of the site investigator to use continuous vigilance to identify and report 
deviations. The Investigator may not deviate from the protocol without a formal protocol 
amendment having been established and approved by the Sponsor and an appropriate IRB, except 
when necessary to eliminate imminent hazards to the patient or when the change(s) involve only 
logistical or administrative aspects of the trial. A deviation may result in the patient having to be 
withdrawn from the trial, rendering that patient non-evaluable.
