Compare key clinical outcomes between controls and men treated with a novel CCH administration protocol among men previously unresponsive to CCH administration.
Beginning approximately 3 years ago, the investigators' team sought to achieve further improvements with CCH through the addition of more aggressive modeling therapies. Results from a comparison of CCH alone vs CCH and traction with RestoreX demonstrated a mean 33.8 degree (49%) curvature improvement with combined therapy compared to 19-20 degrees (30-31%) with CCH alone or CCH and other traction devices). These results currently represent the greatest improvements with CCH in published literature and further build upon phase IIb results which demonstrated that mechanical traction (via manual modeling in the phase IIb trial) represents a critical factor in achieving improvements with CCH.
The investigators' team additionally published a survey of men who had experienced suspected penile fractures with CCH and demonstrated greater curvature improvements without any loss / worsening of erectile function. This critical study highlighted that conservative management of suspected fractures should not only be considered a standard of care in managing suspected fractures, but also that these men achieved better final outcomes (again highlighting the importance of the combination of mechanical curvature correction in addition to CCH management).
Based on the above findings, the investigators' team began performing a more aggressive manual modeling protocol. This novel protocol included several notable innovations: dilution of the 0.9 mg of CCH in 0.7 ml of diluent, injection to the erect penis to assure accurate injection, repeat curvature assessments with each series (due to changing of the point of maximal curvature), incorporation of RestoreX traction therapy post injection, and 'aggressive' manual modeling (equivalent of 10-15 lbs of force) to achieve curvature correction. Preliminary (unpublished - abstract submitted to SMSNA 2021) results from these men demonstrated a median ~60% curvature improvement. Importantly, several of the patients had previously undergone 8 CCH injections with outside providers and were able to similarly achieve a median 60% improvement with the investigators' injection / modeling protocol.
These preliminary findings have several important ramifications for the treatment of PD:
1.2 Investigational Treatments
The current study would randomize men 1:3 into one of two treatment cohorts: 1. Observation followed by CCH or 2. CCH followed by observation. This study design offers the benefits of a randomized, controlled trial (highest level of evidence). RCTs are particularly important in PD, where the disease changes over time in a percentage of men as a function of its natural history. This would also allow blinding of measurements using photographs (single-blinded assessments), which provides further study rigor.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Control - Crossover to CCH | Active Comparator | Men in this cohort would undergo baseline assessments followed by no treatment for 6 months and then repeat assessments. Men would then cross-over to CCH treatment and undergo up to 8 injections (or until curvature is <15 degrees). Final assessments would then be performed 6 weeks following the final injection. |
|
| Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum | Experimental | Men in this cohort would undergo baseline assessments followed by up to 8 injections of CCH (or until curvature is <15 degrees). Men would then undergo assessments 6 weeks later, followed by a 6-month no treatment phase and then final assessments. |

Photography will be obtained where possible, with outcomes assessed based on the photographs. The care provider obtaining measurements will also be blinded as to baseline outcomes and results with follow-up assessments.
|
| Control - Crossover to CCH | Drug | Patients will be randomized 1:3 into the control arm. After undergoing baseline assessments, control men will not undergo treatments for 6 months. They will then have repeat assessments and receive up to 8 CCH injections. They will then have final assessments performed 6 weeks after treatment. |
|
|
| RestoreX | Device | Both treatment arms will incorporate the use of RestoreX for 30-60 minutes daily during CCH administration and continued until 6 weeks after final injection administration. |
