- DUBLIN, Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Endo International plc (OTC: ENDPQ) announced today that the peer-reviewed Journal of Hand Surgery Global Open published Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum for the Treatment of Dupuytren Disease: A Delphi-Based Consensus Study .1
Consensus-based study findings among expert hand surgeons indicate that XIAFLEX® (collagenase clostridium histolyticum) has a wide-ranging application for the appropriate treatment of Dupuytren's contracture in patients with varying degrees of disease severity and functional impairment. - Results from the published research indicate a high level of consensus for using XIAFLEX for the treatment of one- or two-finger metacarpophalangeal (MP) joint contractures, most one- or two-finger proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint contractures, and most combined MP and PIP joint contractures.
- "Healthcare providers and patients can choose among multiple surgical and nonsurgical treatment options for Dupuytren's disease, and without established guidelines, the process for sorting through those choices can be overwhelming," said Dr. Gary M. Pess, a hand and upper extremity surgeon and lead author of the study.
- "This study provides insight from experienced hand surgeons about using XIAFLEX to treat varying degrees of Dupuytren's contracture."
