Overview
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and analgesic performance of the ReneuRx™ device in subjects with moderate to severe chronic lateral hip pain compared to subjects receiving treatment with corticosteroid injection in adults aged 22-80 years. Participants will attend study visits and complete quality of life questionnaires. Participants will be followed for approximately 6-12 months after the study procedure.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age 22 to 80, inclusive of any gender
- Baseline pain intensity of \>5 of the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) localized to the lateral aspect of the hip (with or without radiation to lateral thigh or buttock) despite current treatment
- Tenderness to palpation of the peritrochanteric space of the lateral hip in adults with Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome.
- At least 6 months of previous conservative treatments for subject's lateral hip pain (NSAID, acetaminophen, physical therapy, and/or cortisone injections) that are not currently providing relief
- Agree to see study investigator and study team for hip pain during the study period
- Willing/able to understand the informed consent form and provide written informed consent
- Able to complete outcome measures (including electronic patient reported outcome measures)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Known allergy to glycerol, hyaluronic acid, poloxamer 407, or phosphate buffered saline
- History of cryoglobulinemia
- History of cold-induced auto-immune hemolytic anemia (e.g. paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria or cold agglutinin disease)
- History of cold urticaria
- History of Chilblain's (pernio) disease in the lower extremities
- History of Raynaud's disease
- Open and/or infected wounds or active tumor at or near the treatment site
- History of vascular surgery involving femoral vessels on theinjection side
- History of hip surgery of any kind to the index side within the past 6 months (e.g., arthroscopy, arthroplasty, etc.)
- History of trochanteric osteotomy, femoral osteotomy, amputation, or pseudoarthrosis.
- Active bacterial or fungal infection that, at the discretion of the investigator, would preclude study participation
- Currently taking \>60 MME/day
- History of systemic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis
- Bleeding disorders, unless appropriately stopped or reversed for the procedure at investigator's discretion
- Any neuropathic pain condition (e.g. - complex regional pain syndrome, lumbar radiculopathy) in the area of pain
- Presence of unstable psychiatric disease
- Cryoneurolysis, thermal or pulsed radiofrequency ablation, or phenol injection for the index hip(s) within the past 12 months
- Corticosteroid injection within the previous 3 months or orthobiologic therapy such as platelet rich plasma injections, or shockwave therapy for the index hip(s) within the previous 6 months
- Known contraindication to use of a regional anesthetic block
- Pregnant, nursing, or intent of becoming pregnant during the study period
- Documented evidence of an overlapping pain pattern from another source that the Investigator believes to be indistinguishable from lateral hip pain
- Lumbar or sacroiliac fusion within the previous 6 months
- Any other condition (such as history of deep vein thrombosis, significant cardiovascular, renal failure/dialysis, hepatic or other systemic comorbidity/chronic pain condition including cancer) or circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the safety of the subject or the quality of study data
- Body habitus/hip anatomy that would preclude the use of the product injection needle size
- Participation in any clinical study of a therapeutic investigational product within 30 days prior to enrollment
- Pending litigation or disability status
- Unwilling to refrain from any scheduled surgeries that would impact the collection of study endpoint data during the duration of the study
- Subject is a prisoner
