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.
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. Fourty patients aged 18-75 and affected by PD in the acute phase will be enrolled in the study. The primary endpoint is the incidence of adverse events with causal relationship during the 2.5 months of active treatment and during follow-up. The scondary endpoint is the overall improvement of the clinical condition by evaluation of the patient's global improvement (PGI-I scale), the amelioration in the degree of the curvature of the penis and the amelioration in the length of the penis after the induction of penile erection.
