NCT ID NCT07129694
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new regenerative ligament (CT-ACL001) for repairing a torn ACL, compared to the standard surgery. About 64 people aged 18-45 with a recent ACL injury will take part. The goal is to see if the new ligament works as well as the standard treatment and causes fewer problems at the donor site.
