Comparing two surgeries for complex Peyronie's disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Skin clinical trials.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to correct severe penile curvature caused by Peyronie's disease. It tests which approach works better for men with advanced or complex cases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a male aged 18 or older
- You have been diagnosed with Peyronie's disease and your curve has been stable for at least 3 months
- You have a complex case, such as a severe curve, a curve in multiple directions, a hinge effect (buckling), hourglass shape, or a large plaque that affects function
- You and your doctor have decided that surgery with a graft is the right treatment
- You are willing and able to sign a consent form and return for follow-up visits

This trial tests a new type of laser treatment (fractional CO2 laser) to safely reduce penile curvature in men with chronic, stable Peyronie's disease. It may be an option if you have had the condition for at least a year with no recent changes or pain.
This study compares two surgical techniques to correct a severe curve in boys undergoing hypospadias repair. If your child has a significant bend (30 degrees or more) after the surgeon cuts the urethral plate, this trial may help determine which method gives better results.
This pilot study tests whether microneedling (tiny needles used on the skin) can safely and effectively reduce the curve caused by Peyronie's disease. If you have had a stable curve for at least 6 months and have not tried other treatments recently, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to fix a common birth defect where the opening of the urethra is on the underside of the penis. It tests whether a new method using a special glue is better than the standard method.
This trial tests whether injecting platelet-rich plasma (a concentration of your own blood cells) into the penile plaque can help reduce curvature from Peyronie's disease. It is for men whose curvature has been stable for at least 3 months and who have not had prior injections or surgery.
This trial combines a low-intensity shockwave treatment with a commonly used injectable medication (collagenase) to see if the combination works better for men with Peyronie's disease who have a noticeable curve and a non-calcified plaque.
