This is an open-label, single group POC study evaluating the effectiveness of CGB-400 Topical Gel for toenail fungal growth clearing. The study consists of a 12-week period with 5 clinic visits at the following timepoints: Baseline (Day 0), and Weeks 2, 6, and 12 and post-application follow-up at Week 24. The applications could be extended for an additional 12 weeks based on PI's observations.

Approximately 15 subjects will be enrolled and subjected to application of CGB-400 Topical Gel. Subjects must be at least 18 years of age and will be selected by the concerned PI.

3. Subjects who have target toenail showing 20-65% involvement as judged by the clinical investigator.
4. Subject must be physically able to reach toes to clean them and apply product.
5. Subject is willing to discontinue use of other nail fungus treatment products and nail cosmetic products for duration of this study.

5. Basal cell carcinoma within 6 months of Visit 1.
6. Uncontrolled systemic disease.
7. Foreseen unprotected and intense/excessive UV exposure during the course of the study.
