Using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for tennis elbow
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a treatment for tennis elbow called platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which uses your own blood to help the tendon heal. It looks at who benefits most from a PRP injection given within the last 48 hours.

This study compares two types of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections—one with a lot of white blood cells and one without—against a placebo injection to see which works best for persistent tennis elbow. If other treatments haven't helped your elbow pain for at least 3 months, this trial might be a good option.
This trial tests a special injection made from your own bone marrow to treat tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments like rest, physical therapy, or corticosteroid shots. The goal is to see if this injection can help heal a small tear in the tendon and reduce pain.
This study tests if a treatment using your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) can help relieve persistent elbow tendon pain that hasn't gotten better with other treatments like rest or physical therapy.
This trial compares different injection treatments to reduce pain from tennis elbow (lateral epicondyle tendinosis) when symptoms have lasted more than 3 months. You might benefit if your clinician feels an injection is appropriate and you meet the study’s safety rules.
This trial tests whether an injection of concentrated platelets from your own blood can help heal chronic tendon injuries that haven't improved with other treatments. Platelets contain natural healing factors that may reduce pain and improve function.
This trial tests an injection called iEVs for people with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) that hasn't gotten better with physical therapy or anti-inflammatory drugs. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps reduce pain.
