What is being measured

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

  1. Safety determined with symptoms & signs of infection and immune response and adverse events evaluated with NCI-CTCAE v3.0

    Presence of general symptoms or signs associated with infection and immune response, such as rash, pruritus, fever, chills, urticaria, or dyspnea.

    Injection sites were examined to identify erythema, swelling, or abnormal discharge.

    Adverse events were categorised with use of the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events scale, version 3.0.

    Measured: Postinjection 1month

  2. Constant-Murley score

    The Constant-Murley score (CMS) is a 100-points scale composed of parameters defining the level of pain and the ability of performing daily activities.

    Measured: Postinjection 1month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Steroid injection into the subacromial space and Allogeneic PRP injection into the subacromial space in people with Shoulder Impingement Syndrome, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 10 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Safety determined with symptoms & signs of infection and immune response and adverse events evaluated with NCI-CTCAE v3.0 (time frame: Postinjection 1month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Sep 2020.
