This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early

Summary

This trial investigates whether targeted radiation therapy can stop Dupuytren's contracture from coming back after a collagenase injection and release procedure. Adults aged 45 and older with a finger that cannot lie flat will receive two 5-day courses of radiation separated by a rest period. Researchers will track recurrence over three years to see if the radiation makes a difference.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
radiation therapy after collagenase injection and release
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a way to prevent Dupuytren's contracture from recurring after standard treatment, reducing the need for repeat procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with no control group, so results may not be definitive. Radiation carries risks of skin irritation and other side effects.
