Bone marrow plasma injection for elbow tendon pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an injection made from your own bone marrow can help treat long-lasting elbow tendon pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and works for people with partial tears in the elbow tendon.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had elbow pain for at least 3 months that hasn't improved with standard treatments like rest, physical therapy, or anti-inflammatory medications.
- An ultrasound has shown a partial tear (not a complete tear) in the tendon on the outside of your elbow.
- You have not had surgery on that elbow.
- You have not had a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection in that elbow in the last 6 months.

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 study looks at whether a treatment called platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can help people with ongoing elbow tendon pain. PRP uses a part of your own blood to try to heal the damaged tendon. This trial aims to understand what factors make the treatment work best for different people.
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 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 tests whether an injection of your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can help heal muscle, tendon, or joint problems that haven't gotten better with other treatments like physical therapy or medications.
This study compares two treatments—hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP, made from your own blood)—for chronic tendon pain. You may be a good fit if you have had pain in your Achilles tendon or golfer's elbow for more than 3 months and are looking for a non-surgical option.
