About this study

Official title: Comparing Short-term Function and Pain After Treatment With Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum or Percutaneous Needle Aponeurotomy for Dupuytren's Disease

This study will evaluate short-term pain and function associated with percutaneous needle aponeurotomy (PNA) and injections of the enzyme collagenase clostridium histolyticum in patients with Dupuytren's disease. Scores on outcome measures will be compared between groups to determine whether treatments differ in terms of hand function and pain during the early post-treatment period.

Read the detailed description

Percutaneous needle aponeurotomy (PNA) and injections of the enzyme collagenase clostridium histolyticum are two non-invasive treatment options for patients with Dupuytren's disease. While PNA has been offered for decades, injectable collagenase is relatively new. The effectiveness of each treatment has been compared in the literature; however, recovery, in terms of pain and short-term function has not been formally evaluated. The objective of this study is to objectively compare short-term function and pain outcomes associated with each of these two procedures in patients presenting with untreated Dupuytren's disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (brief MHQ)

    A validated patient-reported 12-item questionnaire pertaining to several aspects of hand function that is answered on 1 through 5 Likert scales. Higher scores indicate better hand function.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Unite Rhumatologique des Affections de la Main (URAM) scale

    The URAM is a validated patient-reported 9-item functional assessment scale used clinically and for research purposes specific to patients with Dupuytren's disease. The resulting score quantifies Dupuytren's disease-related disability, with higher scores indicating higher level of disability.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Daily Pain and Function Scales

    An emailed form asking participants to rate pain and function during the past 24 hours using two 1-5 Likert scales. Two additional questions to assess night splint compliance and pain medication (yes/no)

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (brief MHQ)

    Measured: Day 7

  5. Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (brief MHQ)

    Measured: Day 14

  6. Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (brief MHQ)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dupuytren Disease, run by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre at 1 site in Canada.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2016. 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 Canada. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire (brief MHQ) (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 21 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 6 Dec 2016.
