PRP and a daily pill: a new combo for ED?
NCT ID NCT07602608
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 156 men with mild to mild-moderate erectile dysfunction who had not responded well to previous treatments. Half received platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections into the penis plus a daily 5 mg tadalafil pill, while the other half got PRP injections alone. The goal was to see if adding tadalafil leads to better erectile function over six months, measured by questionnaires and ultrasound blood flow tests.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and tadalafil
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a more effective combination treatment for erectile dysfunction using PRP and a daily pill.
- What could go wrong
- This is a completed Phase 4 trial with 156 men, but results may not apply to all ED patients. Adding tadalafil may not provide extra benefit over PRP alone, and PRP injections carry risks like pain or infection.
