About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptide Injection for the Treatment of Collateral Ligament Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Conducted by Binh Luu Thi, Lan Tran Thi, and Minh Hang Hoang Thi at Thai Nguyen National Hospital, the study investigates a new approach to treating persistent collateral ligament pain, common among athletes. The research examines the therapeutic use of hydrolyzed collagen peptide injections, a treatment that addresses pain and inflammation in ways previous methods have not.

The study involves a randomized controlled trial with 62 patients, all diagnosed with inflammation in the collateral ligament site. The patients are split into two groups: one receiving collagen injections alongside oral painkillers and the other receiving depo-medrol injections with oral painkillers.

Being tested
Arthrys (Collagen Peptide solution), Depo medrol

What participants receive

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

  • Arthrys (Collagen Peptide solution)Device

    one injection of collagen peptide solution (Tiss'You, Republic of San Marino) at the site of the inflamed ligament attachment point

  • Depo medrolDrug

    one injection of depo-medrol at the site of inflamed ligament attachment point (femoral condyle), combined with oral slow-acting symptomatic drugs (glucosamine 1500mg, atrodar 50mg) for 3 consecutive months.

Study groups in NCT05971004
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Collagen Peptide GroupExperimentalThe Collagen Peptide Group (31 patients) received oral pain relievers (paracetamol and anti-inflammatory NSAIDs) for 3-7 days (if the pain was severe) and one injection of collagen peptide solution (Tiss'You, Republic of San Marino) at the site of the inflamed ligament attachment point (femoral condyle).
Receives: Device: Arthrys (Collagen Peptide solution)
Cortison GroupActive comparatorThe Cortison Group (31 patients) received oral painkillers (paracetamol and anti-inflammatory NSAIDs) for 3-7 days (if the pain was severe) and one injection of depo-medrol at the site of inflamed ligament attachment point (femoral condyle), combined with oral slow-acting symptomatic drugs (glucosamine 1500mg, atrodar 50mg) for 3 consecutive months.
Receives: Drug: Depo medrol

What is being measured

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

  1. WOMAC

    Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) assessing functionality from 0 to 96 for the total WOMAC where 0 represents the best health status and 96 the worst possible status.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. VAS (Visual Analogue Pain)

    Visual Analogue Pain assessing pain from 0 (no pain) to 10 (unbearable pain)

    Measured: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months

  2. Ultrasound

    Ultrasound evaluation for hypoechoic (signal reduction), normal, and hyperechoic (signal amplification) ligaments. Hypoechoic signal suggests damage or degeneration of the ligament; normal signal suggests healthy ligament tissue; hyperechoic signal suggests calcification, scar, or inflammation.

    Measured: Baseline, 3 months, 6 months

  3. Likert

    Likert scale for patients' satisfaction from 1 (no statisfaction) to 5 (maximum satisfaction)

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  4. WOMAC

    Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) assessing functionality from 0 to 96 for the total WOMAC where 0 represents the best health status and 96 the worst possible status.

    Measured: Baseline, 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Arthrys (Collagen Peptide solution) and Depo medrol in people with Collateral Ligament Injury of Stifle Joint, run by Tiss'You srl at 1 site in San Marino.

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 6 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 2 Aug 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 San Marino. 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?

WOMAC (time frame: 6 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 2 Aug 2023.
