New shoulder implants aim to improve rotator cuff healing

NCT ID NCT07080450

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study is testing a new type of suture anchor, called ComposiTCP, for repairing torn rotator cuffs in the shoulder. The anchors are used with a special tape to help the soft tissue reattach to bone. Researchers will follow 43 patients for one year to see if the repair holds and if shoulder function improves, while also tracking any side effects.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could confirm that these anchors help rotator cuff tears heal better and improve shoulder function.
What could go wrong
