Efficacy of a Single Injection of CTM for Post-Operative CMC Arthritis

Study Purpose

The goal of this study is to determine the success rate of a single Carpometacarpal (CMC) thumb injection after arthroplasty surgery for primary osteoarthritis of the CMC joint.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years and Over
Gender	All

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT06171529
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.	N/A

Additional Details

CTM Biomedical markets and distributes decellularized particulate human placental connective-tissue matrix products, intended solely for homologous use to supplement or replace damaged or inadequate connective-tissue. These are structural tissue allografts processed according to the criteria contained in 21CFR 1271.10(a) for regulation solely under section 361 of the Public Health Service Act. CTM Flow is decellularized particulate human placental connective-tissue matrix provided in a vial. Postoperative pain after basilar thumb arthritis reconstruction is often quite significant. CTM flow is an extracellular matrix implant that supplements and replaces damaged tissues. Small unpublished case series in total knee arthroplasty, ENT procedures, and rotator cuff repair have shown beneficial results from CTM. We hope to show similar results in this assessment of CTM in the Post-operative CMC arthroplasty patient population. The primary outcome measure will be narcotic use postoperatively in the first 3 weeks after surgery, as measured by patient tracking. Patients will track post-op pain meds including narcotics, and OTC pain medication for the duration of their follow up period. Per standard of care, patients will be encouraged to change to Tylenol and/or ibuprofen pain medicine as soon as they are able. Secondary outcomes will be quickDASH and VAS pain.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Placebo Comparator: Placebo - Saline

For patients who randomize to Saline: An unblinded IHTSC Fellow, nurse/PA, or OR staff will use a 3 or 5 cc syringe to draw up the saline. A 23 gauge needle will be used to inject the saline after arthroplasty and prior to closure of the capsule. 2cc of saline will be injected into each patient.

Experimental: Treatment - CTM

For patients who randomize to CTM: An unblinded IHTSC Fellow, nurse/PA, or OR staff will use a 3 or 5 cc syringe to draw up the CTM Flow material. A 23, or 20 gauge needle will be used to inject the CTM after arthroplasty and prior to closure of the capsule. To draw up the injection: allow the particulate to settle to the bottom and withdrawal fluid into the 3 or 5 cc syringe. It is ok if some particulate is drawn up into the syringe. 2cc of CTM will be injected into each patient.

Interventions

Device: - CTM

CTM Flow is stored in 1cc vials and is stable at room temperature and does not need to be refrigerated. CTM Flow will be supplied to and stored at the IHTSC Beltway Surgery Center. Product will be stored at room temperature without continued temperature control. All product will be kept in the Beltway Surgery Center and will not be separated from the marketed non-study CTM. Treating Surgeons will remain blinded to the treatment group, but will ensure that only the injection is billed to patients and the CTM or saline are provided at no cost. Lexie Reissaus, CCRP will track drug accountability.

Other: - Placebo

placebo/Saline control injection
