Summary
Evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived extracellular vesicle (iEV) injection in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis of the humerus.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria5
- Diagnosed with lateral epicondylitis by clinical symptom examination and MRI or ultrasound, without obvious tendon tear;
- Unilateral lateral elbow pain lasting for more than 12 weeks;
- Pain is provoked by at least 2 of the following methods, with a pain VAS score exceeding 3: maximum grip strength, palpation of the lateral epicondyle of the elbow and surrounding area, resisted dorsiflexion of the wrist or middle finger, or stretching of the forearm extensor muscles under a pain-free grip state;
- Having received physical therapy or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug treatment with poor efficacy;
- Individuals with independent behavioral capacity, who have signed the informed consent form themselves.
Exclusion Criteria5
- Complaints of ipsilateral muscle pain caused by other reasons in the past 6 months;
- Presence of ipsilateral neurogenic, inflammatory, or systemic joint diseases;
- A history of previous lateral epicondylitis (LET) surgery in the past 6 months;
- Subjects deemed unsuitable for participating in the trial due to other conditions, as judged by the researcher;
- MRI showing that the injury has involved the lateral collateral ligament, with concurrent cartilage damage.
