Written informed consent to participate in the study
Patients must be able to speak English fluently and to understand English

Main Exclusion Criteria:

Any uncontrolled illnesses (e.g. active malignancy, vasculitis) that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with interpreting the results of the study
Infected Diabetic Foot Ulcer based on the IDSA guidelines, i.e. presence of purulent secretions or at least two of the manifestations of inflammation (erythema, warmth, swelling or induration and pain or tenderness), and for whom, in the investigator's judgment, intravenous or oral antibiotic therapy is required
Active osteomyelitis
Wholly plantar Diabetic Foot Ulcer
Suspected gangrenous tissue of the affected limb that cannot be removed with a single debridement
Diabetic Foot Ulcer associated with prosthetic material or a device
Received any potentially effective systemic antibiotic therapy for more than 24 hours during the 72-hour period before the screening visit
Is receiving, or has received within the 14 days prior to the screening visit, any concomitant topical wound therapy (e.g., topical antimicrobial therapy, topical debriding agent, topical growth factor, topical skin replacement, or hyperbaric oxygen)
Has received systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressive agents, radiation therapy or chemotherapy within the 30 days prior to the screening visit.
Hepatic impairment, renal impairment (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate <10 mL/minute/1.73m2), hypersensitivity to isoniazid.
High risk for tuberculosis, e.g. HIV positive, are immunosuppressed, or have active malignancy
Symptoms of active or latent tuberculosis (based on specific history, physical examination, Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test and chest X-Ray)
Known or suspected drug or alcohol abuse or positive drugs of abuse test.
Participating in any clinical study the 12 weeks before the screening visit
Donation of more than 450 mL of blood in the 3 months before the screening visit, or 1200 mL blood in the 12 months before the screening visit.
History of severe hypersensitivity or ongoing hypersensitivity that might affect the patient's suitability for the study (e.g. hypersensitivity to wound dressings), as judged by the investigator.
History of allergy to, or insensitivity to, local anaesthetics
Use of any prescribed or non-prescribed (over-the-counter) medication, including herbal medication (e.g., St. Johns Wort) that could possibly interfere with the objectives of this study (e.g., could affect the closure of chronic dermal ulceration), during 2 weeks (or 5 half-lives of the compound whichever is the longer) before the anticipated first dose of study medication. Occasional paracetamol for pain relief (maximum 2 g per 24 hours) and adrenergic nasal spray for relief of nasal congestion are allowed
Having received BBR-012 or isoniazid within the 6 months prior to the screening visit
Bleeding disorder or history of increased bleeding
