Phase 2a Dose-Ranging Study to Evaluate Safety and Effectiveness of AA4500 in Treatment of Dupuytren's Disease Nodules

Approximately 13 sites in the United States and Australia, approximately 90 study subjects. After all pre-injection procedures are completed on day 1, eligible men and women will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to dose group and then in a 4:1 ratio to treatment group. Study drug will be administered into a palmar nodule located on the selected hand. AA4500 (collagenase clostridium histolyticum) 3 doses (low, medium, and high) after reconstitution with sterile diluent (0.3 mg/mL calcium chloride dihydrate in 0.9% sodium chloride). Each dose of study drug will be injected into the nodule. The injection will be administered in 3 different volumes according to randomization. Placebo after reconstitution with sterile diluent (0.3 mg/mL calcium chloride dihydrate in 0.9% sodium chloride). Each dose of study drug will be injected into the nodule. The injection will be administered in 3 different volumes according to randomization. Follow up visits for the evaluation of safety and efficacy will be required for all subjects on days 8, 29, and 57.
