Summary

This trial compares standard rotator cuff repair surgery to the same surgery plus a BioEnthesis patch, designed to help tendon reattach to bone more strongly. About 100 adults aged 18–65 with reparable rotator cuff tears will take part. The main goal is to see if the patch reduces the chance of re-tearing within 12 months, as seen on MRI.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
BioEnthesis allograft patch
What this could lead to
If successful, this patch could lower the high re-tear rate after rotator cuff surgery, leading to better mobility and less pain.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center Phase 4 trial with 100 participants. The patch is new, and results may not apply to all patients. Re-tear risk remains.
