  • Patient has chronic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with persistent symptoms despite non-operative treatment, or refusal of non-operative treatment, with one or more of the following: splinting, NSAIDs or corticosteroid injections.
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome must be confirmed by positive results of Electromyography (EMG) and Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) tests.
  • Patient is a male or non-pregnant, non-lactating female.
  • Patient is 18-75 years of age, inclusive.

What participants receive

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

  • MANOS CTR™Device

    The MANOS device is a carpal tunnel blade used to release the transverse carpal ligament in order to provide relief for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Gather clinical outcome data on the safety and efficacy of the MANOS Carpal Tunnel Release System.

    Clinical outcome data that will be evaluated:

    • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire (CTSQ)
    • Scar sensitivity
    • Hand sensation
    • Grip and pinch strength
    • Hand dexterity

    Measured: Baseline throughout 12 weeks post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety information will be evaluated by collecting the type, frequency, severity, device, and procedure-relatedness of adverse events.

    Measured: Baseline throughout 12 weeks post-operatively

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted12 Oct 2011 (estimated)
  2. Study startOct 2011
  3. Primary completionNov 2012
  4. Study completionNov 2012

Why it stopped: Enrollment did not reach our intended sample size due to availability of CTR with MANOS outside of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MANOS CTR™ in people with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, run by Thayer Intellectual Property, Inc. at 3 sites 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 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Enrollment did not reach our intended sample size due to availability of CTR with MANOS outside of the study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Gather clinical outcome data on the safety and efficacy of the MANOS Carpal Tunnel Release System. (time frame: Baseline throughout 12 weeks post-operatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 15 Jan 2013.
