Trial design
Randomised, matching placebo (vibrio alginolyticus collagenase matching placebo sterile lyophilised powder for injection); phase ii compares the dose identified in phase i versus matching placebo, with up to three intralesional injections into the affected cord per protocol.-controlled, adaptive Phase I/II trial in Austria, Germany, Sweden and others.
- Randomised
- Yes
