Study summary

Assess the clinical outcomes using atelocollagen injection in patients with calcific tendinitis.

Read the detailed description

Suitable participants based on the selection/exclusion criteria are randomly assigned to either the case group or the control group. Consent is given right before the procedure.

Case group (Atelocollagen injection group): Ultrasound-guided barbotage followed by lidocaine and atelocollagen injection.

Control group (Lidocaine injection group): Ultrasound-guided barbotage followed by lidocaine injection."

Clinical outcomes will be assessed with functional scores on 6 months after injection.

In context

Rotator Cuff Tear Arthropathy

57 studies on the registry are indexed under Rotator Cuff Tear Arthropathy; 15 are open to participants now.

This study's planned enrollment of 46 is below the median of 90 across 33 interventional studies indexed under Rotator Cuff Tear Arthropathy.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Patients in whom calcification of 5mm or more is observed in plain radiographs.
  2. In cases where concomitant medication is administered continuously during the clinical trial period, patients who have verified the exact prescribed medication taken within the last week and agreed to maintain the same amount throughout the study period.
  3. Individuals who have agreed to participate in this study and have given written consent themselves.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with a medical history of infectious arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, tumors, or fractures.

    • Patients with .

      • Patients with a history of anaphylactic reactions.

        • Patients with ongoing diseases or a past medical history of such diseases, either in the patient or their family members.

          • Patients who are allergic to transplants. ⑥ Patients who are allergic to porcine (pig) proteins.

            ⑦ Patients deemed unsuitable for this trial based on the judgment of the trial administrator, such as those with mental illnesses.

            ⑧ Patients who have received intra-articular or other injection treatments within one month prior to the procedure decision.

            ⑨ Patients who are on concomitant medications that include oral steroids.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Constant score (Shoulder function score)

    The Constant score is commonly used to evaluate the functional status of shoulder disorders and shows relatively high accuracy, reliability, and reproducibility. The evaluation is out of a total of 100 points: pain 15 points, daily activities 20 points, anterior elevation 10 points, lateral elevation 10 points, internal/external rotation each 10 points, and muscle strength 25 points

    Time frame: 1, 3, 5 months

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 12, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
