Study designDouble-blind randomised controlled trial
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeTreatment
Scientific titleProspective randomised controlled double-blind trial of shock wave therapy (SWT) vs observation only (sham therapy) for Peyronie's disease
Study objectivesTo confirm the question of efficacy of shock wave therapy (SWT) in patients randomised to the treatment arm and assess whether an active treatment such a SWT leads to statistically significant improvement in these patients compared to that achieved by natural resolution.

On 19/08/2008 the following changes were made to the trial record:
1. The public trial title was changed from "Prospective Randomised Trial of Shock Wave Therapy vs Conservative Management of Peyronie's Disease" to "Shock wave therapy (SWT) vs observation only (sham therapy) for Peyronie's disease".
2. The scientific title was added.
3. The anticipated start date was changed from 01/04/2004 to 01/01/2005.
4. The anticipated end date was changed from 31/03/2006 to 12/12/2006.
5. The sources of funding field was updated.

Previous sources of funding:
1. East Norfolk and Waveney Research Consortium - Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital/Norwich PCT
2. NHS R&D Support Funding
Ethics approval(s)Norfolk Research and Ethics Committee, 19/08/2004, ref: 04/Q0101/46
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPeyronie's disease
InterventionSix sessions of SWT over a period of 6 weeks at a rate of one session per week vs observation only (sham therapy).
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureCurrent primary outcome measures as of 19/08/2008:
1. Mean change in angle of deformity for each arm of the study
2. Difference in mean change in angle between treatment and non-treatment arm
3. Difference in the mean International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) scores pre and post treatment in each group

All primary and secondary outcomes were measured at 6 months post-therapy.

Previous primary outcome measure:
Reduction in the angle of penile deformity
Secondary outcome measuresCurrent secondary outcome measures as of 19/08/2008:
The difference in pain scores measured by a visual analogue scale (VAS) and Global Assessment Questionnaire (GAQ) scores between two groups

All primary and secondary outcomes were measured at 6 months post-therapy.

Previous secondary outcome measures:
Improvement in pain scores (VAS) and erectile function scores (IIEF) and partner satisfaction
