Summary:

      This study is being done to find out if an investigational product called HP802-247 can help
      people with venous leg ulcers. Investigational means that HP802-247 has not been approved by
      the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

      At least 250 subjects will participate. The study is going to be conducted in approximately
      50 sites in the United States and Canada.

             or venous incompetence.

          -  Arterial supply adequacy confirmed

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  History of anaphylaxis, serum sickness, or erythema multiforme reaction to aprotinin,
             bovine serum albumin or bovine serum proteins, penicillin, streptomycin, amphotericin
             B.

          -  Prior diagnosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with elevated anti-DNA antibody
             titers, Buerger's disease (thromboangiitis obliterans), current diagnosis of

             during the study.

          -  A target ulcer of non-venous etiologies (e.g., sickle cell anemia, necrobiosis
             lipoidica diabeticorum, pyoderma gangrenosum, vasculopathic or vasculitic).

          -  Documented history of osteomyelitis at the target wound location within 6 months
             preceding the Screening Visit.

          -  Refusal of or inability to tolerate compression therapy.

          -  Therapy of the target ulcer with autologous skin graft, Apligraf™, or Dermagraft™
             within 30 days preceding the Screening Visit.

          -  History of cancer in the preceding 5 years (other than carcinoma in situ of the cervix
             or adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancers).

          -  Any prior exposure to HP802-247 or its vehicle.
