The purpose of this study is to determine whether the EpiFix human amniotic membrane is effective in the treatment of venous leg ulcers.

Inclusion Criteria:

• At least 18 years old
• Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABI) > 0.75
• Presence of a venous leg ulcer extending through the full thickness of the skin but not down to muscle, tendon or bone
• Study ulcer has been present for at least one month prior to the initial screening visit, and is excluded if it has undergone 12 months of continuous high strength compression therapy over its duration
• Study ulcer is a minimum of 2 cm2 and a maximum of 20 cm2 at the Randomization visit
• The target ulcer has been treated with compression therapy for at least 14 days prior to randomization
• Ulcer has a clean, granulating base with minimal adherent slough at the Randomization visit
• Females of childbearing potential must be willing to use acceptable methods of contraception (birth control pills, barriers, or abstinence).
• Patient understands and is willing to participate in the clinical study and can comply with weekly visits and the follow-up regimen

• Study ulcer exhibits clinical signs and symptoms of infection.
• Non-mobile i.e. not ambulatory, or bed ridden
• Study ulcer, in the opinion of the investigator, is suspicious for cancer should undergo an ulcer biopsy to rule out a carcinoma of the ulcer

• Study ulcer requiring negative pressure wound therapy or hyperbaric oxygen during the course of the trial.
• Patients who are unable to understand the aims and objectives of the trial
• Presence of any condition(s) which seriously compromises the subject's ability to complete this study, or has a known history of poor adherence with medical treatment
• NYHA Class III and IV congestive heart failure (CHF), as defined by the following criteria: Class III: Symptoms with moderate exertion; Class IV: Symptoms at rest
• Ulcers on the dorsum of the foot or with more than 50% of the ulcer below the malleolus are excluded.
• Pregnant or breast feeding
