Use of Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Patients With Brittle Nail Syndrome

Study Description
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma therapy for brittle nail syndrome

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Nail Diseases Device: Platelet-rich plasma Device: Platelet-poor plasma Phase 4

Study Design
Layout table for study information
Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 10 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Single (Outcomes Assessor)
Masking Description: Treatment is open-label with respect to patient and investigators but is blinded to an endpoint committee.
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Use of Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Patients With Brittle Nail Syndrome
Actual Study Start Date : March 4, 2021
Estimated Primary Completion Date : June 2022
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 2023
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Platelet-rich plasma
The proximal nail fold is cleansed with alcohol and platelet-rich plasma obtained from the patient is injected using a 1ml syringe and 30g needle, 0.1-0.2 ml of platelet-rich plasma is injected into 8 proximal nail folds.
Device: Platelet-rich plasma
Blood will be drawn from a vein in the patient's arm into an 11 ml Eclipse platelet-rich plasma Tube. The blood is processed using a centrifuge machine from eclipse medical. After centrifugation, the platelet poor portion will be separated from the platelet-rich portion. The proximal nail folds are cleansed with alcohol. Using a 1ml syringe and 30g needle, 0.1-0.2 ml of platelet-rich plasma is injected into 8 proximal nail folds.

Placebo Comparator: Platelet-poor plasma
The proximal nail fold is cleansed with alcohol and platelet-poor plasma obtained from the patient is injected using a 1ml syringe and 30g needle, 0.1-0.2 ml of platelet-poor plasma is injected into 2 proximal nail folds.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean change from baseline until week 16 of follow up using the Physician Global Improvement Assessment of the 8 target nails [ Time Frame: At baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks and 16 weeks ]
    The PGIA will be based on a comparison of photographs taken at baseline to the nails at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks and week 16 of treatment and follow-up. The PGIA has five components: lamellar splitting, transverse splitting, ridging and longitudinal groove, longitudinal splitting, and nail thickness. The presence of each of these components will represent 1 point on a scale. This allows a minimum and maximum score of 0 to 5 per fingernail, respectively. A score of 0 represents no signs of brittle nail syndrome, while a score of 5 represents severe brittle nail syndrome. The mean change from baseline will be calculated at week 16.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Subject-reported assessment of nail health with a patient satisfaction survey administered at baseline and week 16. [ Time Frame: Subjective assessments of nail health will be collected at baseline and week 16 ]
    A patient satisfaction survey assessing nail health and satisfaction with the treatment composed of 7 questions will be used. Subjects-reported assessments of nail health will be analyzed using descriptive statistics.
