About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two-Stage Exploratory Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of Intraoperative Subacromial Injection With 4975 in Patients Undergoing Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair of the Shoulder

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and explore the efficacy of a single intraoperative injection of 4975 in patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery for rotator cuff repair of the shoulder

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-stage exploratory study in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery.

Stage 1) Patients will be randomized to receive either 4975 or placebo. The dose of 4975 will be escalated in a protocolized manner based on safety and tolerability.

Stage 2) Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the selected dose of 4975 or placebo. All patients will be observed in the hospital for at least two days following surgery for safety, tolerability, and efficacy assessments. In addition there will be two planned follow-up visits after hospital discharge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain intensity using a standard 11-point numerical rating system (NRS), which will be assessed at predefined times following surgery

    Measured: 28 Days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mean overall daily pain and worst daily pain. Pain intensity with physical therapy. Safety outcomes include ECG, vital signs, adverse drug reactions, and wound exams

    Measured: 28 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 4975 - Highly purified capsaicin in people with Rotator Cuff Repair of the Shoulder, run by Anesiva, Inc. at 4 sites 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 3 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 May 2009. 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 South Korea. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Study has been halted after completing Stage 1, for corporate reasons. No future patients will be enrolled or treated.). 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?

Pain intensity using a standard 11-point numerical rating system (NRS), which will be assessed at predefined times following surgery (time frame: 28 Days). 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 4 May 2009.
