AA4500 (XIAFLEX™, Proposed Name) in the Treatment of Dupuytren's Contracture (CORD-I)

October 26, 2017 updated by: Endo Pharmaceuticals

A Phase 3, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety and Efficacy of AA4500 in the Treatment of Subjects With Dupuytren's Contracture

This was a Phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study conducted in the United States. Subjects with a diagnosis of Dupuytren's contracture in a metacarpophalangeal (MP) or proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint that resulted in a fixed flexion deformity of at least one finger, other than the thumb, that was at least 20° as measured by finger goniometry and was suitable for injection were randomized 2:1 to receive AA4500 0.58 mg or placebo.

This study was designed to be part of the larger clinical program, for adult patients with Dupuytren's contracture with a palpable cord, where the data from 2 pivotal Placebo-Controlled studies (AUX-CC-857 (NCT00528606) and AUX-CC-859 (NCT00533273)) and 7 non-pivotal studies were evaluated.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with a diagnosis of Dupuytren's contracture, with a fixed flexion deformity of at least one finger, other than the thumb, that had a contracture at least 20°, but not greater than 100°, for MP (80° for PIP) joints, caused by a palpable cord that had never been treated with AA4500.
  • Had a positive "table top test," defined as the inability to simultaneously place the affected finger(s) and palm flat against a table top.
  • Judged to be in good health.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Had a chronic muscular, neurological, or neuromuscular disorder that affected the hands.
  • Had received a treatment for Dupuytren's contracture, including surgery (fasciectomy or surgical fasciotomy), needle aponeurotomy/fasciotomy, or injection of verapamil and/or interferon on the selected primary joint within 90 days before the first dose of study drug.
  • Had a known recent history of stroke, bleeding, a disease process that affected the hands, or other medical condition, which in the investigator's opinion, would make the subject unsuitable for enrollment in the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Success (Reduction in Contracture to 5° or Less) of the Primary Joint After the Last Injection
Time Frame: Within 30 days after the last injection

The Primary Outcome Measure for patients treated with AA4500 is the percentage of joints that were successfully treated where "successfully treated" was defined as reduction in contracture to within 0-5° of normal within 30 days of injection.

The Primary Outcome Measure for placebo treated patients is the percentage of joints that were successfully treated where "successfully treated" was defined as reduction in contracture to within 0-5° of normal within 30 days of injection.
Within 30 days after the last injection

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
