Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • TAM2

    The primary variable is TAM2: The sum of Total Active Motion at the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) and distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints of the affected digit at actively made fist minus the extensor lag at these joints.

    At 12 weeks after surgery

Study Arms (2)

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Placebo is administered locally between the flexor tendon and the tendon sheath and around the tendon sheath at a volume of 0.5 ml. Administration of the product is carried out after repair of the flexor tendon but before closure of the surgical wound.

Drug: Placebo

PXL01

EXPERIMENTAL

PXL01 is administered locally between the flexor tendon and the tendon sheath and around the tendon sheath at a volume of 0.5 ml. Administration of the product is carried out after repair of the flexor tendon but before closure of the surgical wound.

Drug: PXL01

Interventions

PXL01DRUG

PXL01 is a synthetic peptide sequentially derived from human lactoferrin. PXL01 is formulated in a viscous solution of sodium hyaluronate. The drug product is administered locally between the flexor tendon and the tendon sheath and around the tendon sheath at a volume of 0.5 ml. Administration of the product is carried out after repair of the flexor tendon but before closure of the surgical wound.

PXL01

Placebo is a physiological sodium chloride solution, which is clear and colourless.

Eligibility Criteria

Age15 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Complete division of flexor digitorium profundus tendon (FDP) in zone I or II, with or without division of flexor digitorium superficialis (FDS) and possible to rejoin with tendon suture
  • Open flexor tendon injury sutured within 14 days after trauma
  • years of age
  • Signed informed consent prior to any study related procedures

You may not qualify if:

  • Treatment with any investigational product within 4 weeks of study entry
  • Patients previously included in the study
  • Thumbs with complete or partial division of flexor pollicis longus (FPL)
  • Concomitant fracture(s) requiring immobilisation
  • Injuries with associated soft tissue loss
  • Severe crush injury
  • Palmar plate injury requiring immobilisation
  • Devascularisation/requirement of vascular repair
  • Joint injuries
  • Bilateral injuries
  • Previous flexor tendon surgery in the digit, which is to be treated with IMP
  • Reduced motion in the digit, which is to be treated with IMP, or the corresponding digit prior to the injury
  • Compliance with mobilisation protocol not expected
  • Alcohol or drug abuse
  • Severe intercurrent illness, which in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the patient at risk when participating in the study, or affect the patient's ability to take part in the study
  • +10 more criteria
