Laser zaps penile scar tissue in early trial

NCT ID NCT07177833

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 1 trial tests whether a fractional CO2 laser can safely reduce the scar tissue that causes penile curvature in Peyronie's disease. Sixty men with stable, chronic disease will receive three laser sessions over 18 weeks. The main goal is to check for side effects, but researchers will also measure changes in curvature and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Fractional CO2 laser

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a non-invasive, low-risk option to reduce penile curvature and improve quality of life for men with Peyronie's disease.

What could go wrong

This is a very early phase 1 trial focused on safety, not yet on effectiveness. The laser may not work better than a sham device, and results may not apply to all patients.
