Summary
This study tests if tesamorelin can help nerves regrow and muscles recover after a serious nerve injury in the arm. About 36 adults with a cut ulnar nerve at the wrist will either get tesamorelin or no extra treatment after surgery. Researchers will check pinch strength, hand function, and nerve signals every 3 months for a year to see if the drug leads to better recovery.
