About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effect on Functionality of the "ST500 SINGLE- DOSE GEL" Medical Device in Patients With Symptomatic Long Head of the Biceps Tendon Injury: a Postmarket Interventional, Single Arm Clinical Investigation

Single arm, post-market, confirmatory, interventional clinical investigation - Medical Device

Read the detailed description

The aim of this single arm, post-market, confirmatory, interventional clinical investigation was to evaluate the effect on shoulder functionality and symptoms in patients affected by LHBT injury of a HA-based gel containing a peptide mixture, the ST500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL (ST500TM), topically applied to the shoulder.

Being tested
ST500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL
Keywords
Long Head of Biceps, Long Head of Biceps Tendon Injury, Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides, LHBT injury, Constant-Murley Score

What participants receive

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

  • ST500 SINGLE-DOSE GELDevice

    ST500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL is a hydrogel to be applied to intact skin, useful to limit the physiological degeneration of the joints and tissues, improving their functionality. The presence of a peptide mixture and sodium hyaluronate facilitates the movement of joints and tendons for greater mobility and flexibility.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical performance of the ST500™ in the increase of shoulder functionality, in terms of difference (percent) in the Constant-Murley Score (CMS) between the end of study visit and baseline visit.

    To evaluate the clinical performance of the ST500™ in the increase of shoulder functionality, in terms of difference (percent) in the Constant-Murley Score (CMS) between the end of study visit and baseline visit, in patients affected by Long Head of the Biceps Tendon (LHBT) injury.

    The Constant-Murley score (CMS) is a 100-points scale, that ranges from 0 points (most disability) to 100 points (least disability).

    Measured: 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Clinical performance of the ST500™ in supporting the physiological regenerative process of tendon

    To evaluate the clinical performance of the ST500™ in supporting the physiological regenerative process of tendon assessed by high resolution ultrasound (HRUS)

    Measured: 10 weeks

  2. Clinical performance of the ST500 in the attenuation of disability in patients affected by LHBT injury

    To evaluate the clinical performance of the ST500 in the attenuation of disability in patients affected by Long Head of the Biceps Tendon (LHBT) injury assessed by range of motion through use of a digital goniometer.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  3. Number of participants with Adverse Events (ST500 Safety and Tolerability)

    To evaluate the tolerability and safety of ST500™ through identification of Adverse Events including assessment of the relationship of the Adverse Event to the Investigational Product (e.g. local allergic reaction).

    Measured: 10 weeks

  4. Patient satisfaction of the ST500™

    To evaluate the tolerability and patient satisfaction of the CR 500™ through a the completion of a specific questionnaire by the patient, the five-points Likert scale in which 1 means Strongly disagree with the assertion and 5 means Strongly agree

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ST500 SINGLE-DOSE GEL in people with Long Head of Biceps Rupture, run by Contrad Swiss SA at 1 site in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 16 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 27 Mar 2023. 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 Italy. 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 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?

Clinical performance of the ST500™ in the increase of shoulder functionality, in terms of difference (percent) in the Constant-Murley Score (CMS) between the end of study visit and baseline visit. (time frame: 10 weeks). 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 27 Mar 2023.
