Recruiting NA Rotator Cuff Injuries

New treatment option for Rotator Cuff Injuries

Official title Use of the REGENETEN™ Bioinductive Implant System in High Grade Partial-thickness Tears

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05444465

What this study is testing

What it's testing
The purpose of the study is to assess whether the REGENETEN™ Bioinductive Implant allows patients to get back to their everyday activities quicker than if the tendon is repaired by the standard repair technique 'Completion and Repair' for surgically treating partial-thickness rotator cuff tears.

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

Ages 18 and older

You may be able to join if

  • The subject must provide written informed consent.
  • Subject is \> eighteen (18) years of age (no upper limit).
  • Subject has an isolated high-grade (\>50% or \>6mm) (Ellman grade III) partial thickness tear of supraspinatus or supraspinatus with infraspinatus.
  • Subject has failed a minimum of 3 months of conservative management for treatment of partial thickness rotator cuff tear.
  • Subject willing and able to make all required study visits.

You likely can't join if
