Active clinical trials for "Penile Induration"

Peyronies' disease (PD) is an acquired connective tissue disorder characterized with the growth of fibrous and/or calcified plaques in the tunica albuginea of the penis. The pathogenesis is still unclear, but the most accepted hypothesis is that in genetically prone individuals, trauma or repetitive microtraumas to the erect penis causes inflammation, and consequent growth of fibrous tissue due to degradation of the elastic fibers and fibrin deposition. The fibrous plaques in the tunica albuginea of the penis causes typical signs and symptoms: penile abnormal curvature, penile pain, erectile dysfunction, indentation, loss of girth, shortening of the penis, with significant distress experience and psychological bother. A lot of treatement have been proposed to date but with unsatisfactory results and the surgery results the definitive treatement but with possible risks. Autologous fat grafting was first described by Neuber in 1893 and since then it has developed over the next century. The initial goal of fat grafting was to treat volume losses created by disease or trauma. Further studies done by Zuk et al. in 2001 showed that lipoaspirate contains multipotent adipose stem cells (ADSCs) like in the bone marrow, thereby expanding opportunities in multiple fields. ADSCs have emerged as a key element of regenerative medicine surgery due to their ability to differentiate into a variety of different cell lineages. Moreover, their capacity of paracrine secretion of a broad selection of cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors make them highly clinically attractive. More specific, of particular interest are the anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, proangiogenic, immunomodulatory, and anti-scarring effects that have been demonstrated for ADSCs, which effects on wound healing, soft-tissue restoration and scar remodelling. Nanofat firstly introduced by Tonnard in 2013, is an ultra-purified adipose tissue-derived product that is devoid of mature adipocytes but rich in ADSCs and with regenerative properties. The aim of the study is to investigate the use of nanofat grafting in the treatement of PD.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection in men with Peyronie's Disease (PyD).

This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous and intracavernosal or interstitial delivery of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Peyronie's disease, erectile dysfunction , and Interstitial Cystitis

Prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicentric, pilot clinical study to confirm the safety of HiLow hyaluronic acid sodium salt for intralesional penile injection in patients affected by PD.

Investigation of the effect of Low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) for Peyronie's disease (PD) via a single blind, sham-controlled, randomized clinical trial. Investigators will not be blinded to group assignments, but penile curvature will be assessed from coded patient pictures by a blinded assessor.

Compare key clinical outcomes between controls and men treated with a novel CCH administration protocol among men previously unresponsive to CCH administration.

This is a pilot study that evaluates the use of Fractional Carbon Dioxide Laser Therapy in the treatment of Peyronie's Disease. Study participants will be assigned to receive Fractional Carbon Dioxide Laser Therapy at 10-15% laser density coverage.

The purpose of this study is to find out how including a CT exam of the penis can help urologists make treatment decisions for patients with calcified Peyronie's disease.

The purpose of this study is to compare key clinical outcomes of collagenase clostridium histolyticum injections versus surgery for the management of Peyronie's Disease.

Purpose of the project is to investigate if a single injection of autologous stromal vascular fraction into and around plaque is a safe and suitable treatment. Twentythree men > 18 years with Peyronie´s Disease in the chronic phase will be recruited. The operative same-day procedure will be performed in general anaesthesia by a plastic surgeon. Before the patient wake, local anaesthesia is put around the penis. Processed stem cells are injected into the plaque/fibrosis subcutaneously. There will be a follow up at 1, 3, 6, 12 months. It is a pilot study with no randomisation. The group will be compared to a historical control group.
