| I
think I may have an anal fissure |
An anal fissure is a break or tear in the tissue of the anus.
This condition can occur in men and women of all ages. The pain
associated with anal fissures most often occurs during a bowel
movement and frequently lasts for one to two hours afterwards.
Doctors would like to talk with you about a
medical research study for anal fissures, a common medical
condition that causes sharp or burning pain, bleeding and
itching around the anus.
| How
may I qualify for the APT study? |
To be eligible for this study, you must:
- Be between the ages of 18 and 75 years
- Have an anal fissure for at least 6 weeks
prior to the study. Symptoms may include:
- Severe pain during and after a bowel movement
- Bleeding around the anus following a bowel
movement
- Itching around the anus
The investigational ointment being evaluated
in the APT study is called Cellegesic. Cellegesic is a nitroglycerin
ointment and is approved in the United Kingdom, Australia
and other European countries, under the name Rectogesic®,
for relieving pain associated with chronic anal fissures.
It is not approved in the United States, Argentina, Brazil,
Colombia, or Mexico.
Study participants will receive study-related
medical evaluations and the investigational ointment at no
cost. Reimbursement for time and travel will also be provided.

in the United States, Argentina and Brazil. This list is regularly
updated. If you do not find a site near you, please check
