Study summary

The primary objective of this study will be the collection of preliminary clinical evidence to indicate that Cast21 Short Arm Product is no worse than the current standard of care arm immobilization devices in pediatric patients.

A secondary objective will be to characterize the clinician and patient experience with the Cast21 Short Arm Product.

Inclusion criteria

  • Demographic characteristics: all persons ages 3 and above, regardless of the race and sex will be eligible to participate in this study
  • Medical condition: participants must present with a closed, nondisplaced, or minimally displaced distal radius fracture and/or distal ulnar fracture that does not require a bone reduction procedure within 10 days from the date of injury
  • Sizing: participants eligible for the Cast21 Short Arm Product must undergo sizing conducted by the clinical staff to ensure fit into one of the products (sizes XS-L)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants requiring a surgical intervention
  • Participants with moderately displaced or angulated fractures or fractures requiring a bone reduction procedure.
  • Participants with a known history of bone diseases e.g. osteogenesis imperfecta or other pathologic bone conditions
  • Participants with pathologic fractures e.g., presence of bone cyst
  • Participants who smoke
  • Participants with pre-existing skin infection or condition of the lower arm (participants exhibiting only minor skin abrasions, lacerations, or skin condition might be eligible per clinical investigator's discretion)

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Clinical determination of healing (standard of care)

    A binary determination of healing after the intervention will be asserted by the clinician

    Time frame: At treatment completion, an average of 4 weeks

  2. Range of Motion (standard of care)

    Clinicians will asses patients for a binary determination of Full Range of Motion or Limited Range of Motion

    Time frame: At treatment completion, an average of 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient Reported Outcomes - Pain

    Patient pain scores with the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale will be assessed. The rating scale is 1 (min) to 10 (max) with lower scores being a better outcome.

    Time frame: Before treatment (0 Days) and at treatment completion, an average of 4 weeks

  2. Patient Reported Outcomes - Satisfaction

    A questionnaire adapted from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) scale will be administered. The scale is 1 (min) to 5 (max), with high scores indicating a better outcome.

    Time frame: At treatment completion, an average of 4 weeks

  3. Physical Therapy Referral

    A binary referral to physical therapy as part of the standard of care will be observed if the patient's range of motion (see Primary Outcome 2) is such that the clinician will refer more care.

    Time frame: At treatment completion, an average of 4 weeks

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Apr 2024; primary completion for Oct 2024, 6 months later.

Of 14 interventional studies with no phase under Fractures, Closed, half reached primary completion within 36 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 28 and three quarters within 49. This study's planned 6 months is below that.

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 Mar 12, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
