What is being measured

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

  1. ASES score

    The primary endpoint of the study is the number of subjects achieving a 20% increase from baseline in the overall ASES score at 12 months post-op.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Constant Murley Score

    Comparison of Constant scores between the two groups at each study time point

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Shoulder range of motion

    Assessment of the change in the range of motion of the shoulder joint for both treatment groups at each study time point.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. VAS Pain scores

    Change in patient reported pain from baseline

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Incidence of tendon re-tear

    Incidence of supraspinatus tendon re-tear in the two treatment groups as assessed by review of MRI scans by independent radiologists

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Incidence of adverse events

    Incidence of adverse events

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Human dehydrated umbilical cord allograft in people with Shoulder Injury and Shoulder Sprain, run by MiMedx Group, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 20 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 18 Dec 2019. 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 United States. 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?

ASES score (time frame: 12 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 18 Dec 2019.
