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

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Experimental: Autologous PRP followed by Placebo Group Participants in this group will receive the autologous intervention first, followed by the placebo intervention 3 months later. |
Drug: Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma
2 sessions of Autologous PRP will be administered 15 days apart. Each injection will be 0.5 mL of PRP injected into the Peyronie's disease penile plaque.
Other Names:
Other: Saline Solution
2 sessions of saline injection will be administered 15 days apart. Each injection will be 0.5 mL of normal saline injected into the Peyronie's disease penile plaque.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of subjects in each group who attain degree change in penile curvature. [7 months]
Treatment efficacy of PRP will be assessed via the percentage of participants achieving degree change in penile curvature from baseline. Degree of curvature will be measured using a goniometer with the aid of injection of vasoactive substance into the penis.
- Percentage of subjects achieving any decrease in PDQ sub-domain scores (Psychological and Physical Symptoms, Symptom Bother). [7 months]
Treatment efficacy will be assessed via the percentage of participants achieving any decrease in Peyronie's disease Questionnaire (PDQ) sub-domain scoring from baseline. The sub-domains that will be assessed in primary outcome is Psychological and Physical Symptoms and Symptom Bother. PDQ is a validated 15-item questionnaire that assess Psychological and Physical Symptoms, Symptom Bother, and Penile Pain subdomains. The Psychological and Physical Symptoms subdomain is measured from 0 to 24 (most severe symptoms). Symptom Bother subdomain is measured from 0 to 30 (most severe pain).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of adverse events in all patients [Baseline, 6 months (post-intervention)]
Safety will be evaluated via the incidence of adverse events as assessed by treating physician
