About this trial
This trial is a multicenter, Phase 1/2, study to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, PK, and immunogenicity of CNT201 in adult participants with DC (Dupuytren's Contracture).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Men and women, 18 to 75 years of age, inclusive.
Participants with a diagnosis of DC, with a fixed flexion deformity of at least 1 finger, other than the thumb, that have a contracture at least 20°, but not greater than 100°, for MP (not greater than 80° for PIP) joints, caused by a palpable cord.
Participants who have a positive Table Top Test, defined as the inability to simultaneously place the affected finger(s) and palm flat against a tabletop.
Participants who are naive to CNT201 treatment.
Disqualifiers
Participants previously exposed to collagenase Clostridium histolyticum for treatment of Dupuytren's disease (Xiaflex, Xiapex®).
Participants who have received other treatments for advanced Dupuytren's disease, including surgery (fasciectomy or fasciotomy), needle aponeurotomy/fasciotomy, or injection of verapamil and/or interferon on the selected primary joint within 90 days before the first dose of study treatment.
Participants with a chronic muscular, neurological, or neuromuscular disorder that affects the hands, or other medical condition which in the Investigator's opinion will make the participant unsuitable for enrollment in the study.
Participants who have a known recent history of stroke, bleeding, a disease process that affected the hands, or other medical condition (eg, testing positive for tuberculosis [TB] or Coronavirus disease 2019 [COVID-19], etc), or history of alcoholism or drug abuse, which in the Investigator's opinion, would make the participant unsuitable for enrollment in the study.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
[Step 1] Incidence of adverse events
Adverse events including TEAEs, SAEs, and AESIs assessed by frequency and severity, coded using MedDRA and graded per CTCAE v5.0. All adverse event types will be aggregated and reported as overall incidence of adverse events.
[Step 1] Change from baseline in systolic and diastolic blood pressure
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured in mmHg, and the change from baseline will be evaluated at each scheduled visit.
[Step 1] Change from baseline in pulse rate
Pulse rate will be measured in beats per minute (bpm), and the change from baseline will be assessed at each scheduled visit.
[Step 1] Change from baseline in respiratory rate
Respiratory rate will be measured in breaths per minute, and the change from baseline will be evaluated at each scheduled visit.
Secondary outcomes
[Step 1] Proportion of participants achieving clinical improvement (≥50% reduction in contracture from Day 1)
Assessed by finger goniometry at each scheduled visit.
[Step 1] Mean percent change in degree of contracture
Assessed by finger goniometry (MP and PIP joints).
[Step 1] Time to clinical success (contracture ≤5°)
Defined as the first study day on which treated joint contracture is ≤5°.
[Step 1] Change in range of motion (full extension, full flexion, and total arc)
Assessed by finger goniometry (MP and PIP joints).
