  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects were at least 18 years of age, of either sex or any race.
  • Subjects had residual Dupuytren's disease with a fixed-flexion deformity of the finger(s) of at least 20 degrees or greater, caused by a palpable cord.
  • Subjects had a positive "table-top test" defined as the inability to simultaneously place their affected finger(s) and palm flat against a table top.
  • Subjects must have been willing to participate in and complete the study, and comply with its procedures by signing an IRB approved written consent form.
  • Subjects must have been able to understand and adhere to the visit schedule. They must have been able to follow study procedures and instructions, and have agreed to report concomitant medications and adverse events accurately and consistently.
  • Women of childbearing potential must have agreed to use an acceptable method of birth control or must have been surgically sterilized (hysterectomy or tubal ligation). Women of childbearing age had a urine pregnancy test on Day 0 (day of injection) prior to the injection.

Who cannot join

  • Women who were nursing or who were pregnant (as evidenced by a positive urine pregnancy test at the time of enrollment).
  • Subjects who had participated in an investigational drug trial within 30 days of enrollment in this study.

  • Subjects who had a known allergy to AA4500 or any of the inactive ingredients in the AA4500 injection.
  • Subjects who had a known allergy to doxycycline.
  • Subjects who had a medical condition that would have made them unsuitable for enrollment.

About this study

Official title: Double-blind, Randomized Placebo Controlled Study of the Relative Safety and Efficacy of Collagenase Therapy in the Treatment of Residual-type Dupuytren's Disease.

The purpose of the study is to determine if collagenase will reduce the degree of contracture in the primary joint in subjects with Dupuytren's disease.

This study was designed to be part of the larger clinical program, for adult patients with Dupuytren's contracture with a palpable cord, where the data from 2 pivotal Placebo-Controlled studies (AUX-CC-857 and AUX-CC-859) and 7 non-pivotal studies were evaluated.

Read the detailed description

In a random, placebo controlled, double blind study, collagenase injection therapy will be investigated for it's ability to disrupt the Dupuytren's cord.

Resultant cord disruption may obviate the need for patients to have surgery to correct the finger flexion contractures of Dupuytren's disease.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • collagenase clostridium histolyticumBiological

    Also called XIAFLEX®, AA4500

    Subjects could have received up to three injections of AA4500/placebo into the cord of the affected hand. Each injection was separated by at least 30 days. Individual cords may have received up to a maximum of three injections.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Primary Outcome Measure is Reduction of Flexion Contracture of the Primary Joint.

    The Primary Outcome Measure for patients treated with AA4500 is the percentage of 23 joints that were successfully treated where "successfully treated" was defined as reduction in contracture to 5° or less.

    The Primary Outcome Measure for placebo treated patients is the percentage of 12 joints that were successfully treated where "successfully treated" was defined as reduction in contracture to 5° or less.

    Measured: 30 days after the last injection

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percent Reduction From Baseline Contracture After the Last Injection

    Measured: 30 days after last treatment to the primary joint

  2. Percent Change From Baseline Range of Motion After the Last Injection

    Measured: 30 days after last treatment to the primary joint

  3. Time to First Achieve and Maintain Clinical Success After the Last Injection

    Measured: First evaluation visit on which clinical success is achieved and maintained through the Day 30 evaluation of the primary joint

  4. Clinical Success After the First Injection

    Measured: 30 days after first treatment to the primary joint

  5. Percent Reduction From Baseline Contracture After the First Injection

    Measured: 30 days after first treatment to the primary joint

  6. Change From Baseline Range of Motion After the First Injection

    Measured: 30 days after first treatment to the primary joint

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing collagenase clostridium histolyticum in people with Dupuytren's Disease, run by Stony Brook University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Dec 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Outcome Measure is Reduction of Flexion Contracture of the Primary Joint. (time frame: 30 days after the last injection). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00260429, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Dec 2010.
