HC22-1 Trial Summary

This trial is testing a tissue allograft to treat shoulder pain due to arthritis. It will measure pain and shoulder score at follow up intervals to determine success rate.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with shoulder osteoarthritis confirmed by X-rays. Participants will receive a single CTM injection guided by imaging to help with their condition. The study aims to track pain relief and improved shoulder function over time.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests the effectiveness of a human placental connective-tissue matrix (CTM) injection in managing shoulder osteoarthritis. Success rates are measured using pain and shoulder function scores at multiple intervals up to one year post-injection.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects were not explicitly provided, but as with any injection, there may be risks such as pain at the injection site, infection, allergic reactions or no improvement in joint symptoms.
