Endo Presents New Data at the American Podiatric Medical Association Annual Meeting
Rhea-AI Summary
Endo (OTCQX: NDOI) presented new data on collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) and plantar fibromatosis at the American Podiatric Medical Association's annual meeting. The presentations included results from a Phase 2 study of CCH in plantar fibromatosis patients and a retrospective analysis of patient medical records.
Key findings from the Phase 2 study showed:
- A trend in CCH treatment effect over placebo for reducing pain
- Nominally significant improvements in investigator assessment, nodular hardness, and nodule consistency
- A safety profile consistent with previous CCH studies
The retrospective analysis of 2,273 patient charts revealed that nearly two-thirds of patients reported foot pain, with 90% describing it as moderate or severe. Endo is currently enrolling patients in a Phase 3 study to further explore CCH as a potential nonsurgical treatment option for plantar fibromatosis.
Positive
- Phase 2 study showed a trend in CCH treatment effect over placebo for reducing pain in plantar fibromatosis patients

- CCH safety profile consistent with known profile from other clinical studies and indications
- Endo is advancing to Phase 3 clinical study for CCH in plantar fibromatosis treatment
Negative
- CCH is not yet approved for use in treating patients with plantar fibromatosis

Data tracked by StockTitan Argus on the day of publication.
- Two presentations include data from a Phase 2 study of collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) in patients with plantar fibromatosis
- Endo is currently enrolling patients in a Phase 3 study
- A third presentation reports on a retrospective data analysis of transcription notes describing the clinical characteristics of patients with plantar fibromatosis
Two presentations cover data from the Phase 2 clinical study of CCH in patients with plantar fibromatosis, and a third presentation shares a retrospective analysis of plantar fibromatosis patients' medical records.
"We're pleased to share new data about plantar fibromatosis with healthcare providers who care for and treat patients with the condition, which can be painful and burdensome," said James P. Tursi, M.D., Executive Vice President, Global Research & Development at Endo. "Encouraged by the clinical study data being presented at APMA, we are advancing our Phase 3 clinical study to explore a potential nonsurgical option in the future."
The results of the Phase 2 plantar fibromatosis study demonstrated a trend in CCH treatment effect over placebo for reducing pain associated with the condition as measured by the Foot Function Index Total Pain subscale score, as well as nominally significant improvements of CCH versus placebo in the investigator assessment of improvement, nodular hardness (durometer), and nodule consistency (firmness by investigator palpation) scales. In addition, the CCH safety profile was consistent with the known CCH safety profile from other clinical studies and indications. Most adverse events were rated as mild to moderate, and there were no reported treatment-related serious adverse events.
The retrospective analysis of 2,273 patient charts demonstrated that patients with plantar fibromatosis appear to suffer from both direct and indirect symptom burdens. Almost two-thirds of patients in the overall cohort reported PFI-specific foot pain with nearly

About Plantar Fibromatosis
Plantar fibromatosis (PFI) or Ledderhose disease is a hyperproliferative fibrous tissue disorder resulting in the formation of nodules along the plantar fascia, the thick connective tissue that supports the arch of the foot, which is often painful. There is no cure for PFI. Symptom management options include custom insoles, topical treatments, over-the-counter pain and anti-inflammatory medications, radiation therapy and steroid injections, and ultimately, surgery may be required to remove the nodules.
