Progressive Achilles Loading Via Clinician E-support
NCT06736795 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This is a randomized controlled trial with individuals who have Achilles tendon pain. This study is designed to identify an effective rehabilitation program for Achilles tendon pain that expands access to care for military personnel and to predict treatment response. Limited or delayed access to healthcare can exacerbate the severity of pain and duration of disability due to AT. This is particularly relevant for individuals deployed to battlefield settings or are being seen in busy military treatment facilities. Therefore, it is crucial to identify efficient and effective treatment pathways that maximize healthcare access and facilitate a rapid and pain-free return to full duty.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06736795
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06736795 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 160 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Ruth Chimenti, which has 2 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Achilles Tendinopathy appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Exercise is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06736795 reports 2 study locations spanning 2 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Iowa, Texas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
