  • Subject has undergone decompression surgery on the index foot to treat peripheral neuropathy within 2 years of the Screening Visit.
  • Subject requires or anticipates the need for surgery of any type during the 60 day treatment period.
  • Subject is a smoker or has been a smoker within one year of the Screening Visit.
