Study Summary

This trial is a follow-up study to the RC-002 study, in which 246 subjects will either receive an injection of regenerative cells or a corticosteroid injection as active control. The study will follow up with subjects for 6 months.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who completed the RC-002 study, can give consent, and are not undergoing chemotherapy or radiation. It excludes those using their arm for mobility aids, with disproportionate pain behavior or medication usage, vulnerable populations unable to consent, uncooperative subjects, or those with certain neurological/psychiatric disorders.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two treatments in people with chronic partial-thickness rotator cuff tears: an injection of adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRC) versus a standard corticosteroid injection. Participants are randomly assigned to either treatment in a 2:1 ratio and followed up for six months.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions at the injection site such as pain, swelling or infection. Since ADRC involves cell therapy from one's own fat tissue and corticosteroids are commonly used drugs, other specific side effects will be monitored throughout the study.
