About this study

Investigation of the effect of Low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) for Peyronie's disease (PD) via a single blind, sham-controlled, randomized clinical trial. Investigators will not be blinded to group assignments, but penile curvature will be assessed from coded patient pictures by a blinded assessor.

Being tested
Low intensity choc waves therapy (active applicator), Sham (sham applicator)
Medical subject headings
Penile Induration, Penile Diseases

What participants receive

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

  • Low intensity choc waves therapy (active applicator)Device

    At each of the 4 sessions, 4000 shockwaves will be delivered at level 8 (EFD = 0.133 mJ/mm2), over a period of 15 to 20 minutes. The probe will be applied directly to the plaque, on the flaccid penis. The device will stop automatically after the 4000 shock waves.

  • Sham (sham applicator)Device

    At each of the 4 sessions, a sham applicator will be used. The sham applicator has an internal foam pad that disperses the shockwave energy, but is not visible from the outside. The sham applicator will look, feel and sound the same as the active, but no measurable energy is emitted.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Low intensity choc waves therapy (Experimental group)ExperimentalThe patients will use the device with a real applicator.
Receives: Device: Low intensity choc waves therapy (active applicator)
Sham groupSham comparatorThe patients will use the device with a sham applicator. Instead of a focusing lens, the applicator will have an internal foam piece that will dissipate the energy of the shockwave. Hence, the sham applicator will look, feel and sound the same as the active, but no measurable energy is emitted

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of low intensity ESWT on penile curvature in erection in patients with Peyronie's disease

    Average change in penile curvature based on the pictures taken by the patient (face and profil) at baseline and after the 6 week follow-up.

    The assessment will be performed by a blinded assessor at the end of the study

    Measured: 15 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Assessment of the safety of ESWT on patients with PD: adverse events

    Treatment related adverse events recorded at each visits.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Assessment of the effect of ESWT on penile pain

    Patient complete at each visit a numeric rating scale of penile pain graduated from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain) 0 means the patient has no pain and 10 for worst pain

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Assessment of the effect of ESWT on sexual bother

    Difference of the score of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) reported by the patient at baseline and after 6 week follow-up.

    The score is calculated through 5 questions with answers ranging from 0 to 5. Between 26 and 30, the score indicates no erectile dysfunction. Between 17 and 25, it indicates mild dysfunction. Between 11 and 16, it indicates a moderate dysfunction and below 10 a complete or severe dysfunction.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low intensity choc waves therapy (active applicator) in people with Peyronie Disease and Penile Diseases, run by Hopital Foch at 4 sites in France.

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 8 inclusion and 14 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 31 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. 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.

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?

Effect of low intensity ESWT on penile curvature in erection in patients with Peyronie's disease (time frame: 15 months). 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 31 Jul 2024.
