NCT03380559
Brief Summary:
The study aims to demonstrate that intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin with a paralyzing dose coupled with subcutaneous injection of corticoid has greater efficacy than corticoid injection only or toxin injection only for treating lateral epicondylitis in reducing pain at 6 months.
As secondary objectives, the study aims to
* demonstrate improvement of quality of patient's life and positive effect on their resuming to professional activities or sportive activities.
* evaluate tolerance of treatment by grip strength measurement and adverse event collection.
Detailed Description:
This is a prospective multicenter phase IIIb randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study, to compare efficacy and tolerance of 3 groups of treatments for epicondylitis.
All patients will be randomized in 3 following parallel treatment groups:
Group A : botulinum toxin + corticoid
Group C : placebo of toxin + corticoid
Group T : botulinum toxin + placebo corticoid
The study will be performed in 4 centers in France, targetting 150 patients. The follow-up of each patient will last 6 months after treatment.
