Maybe it has allready been posted, for me most of it was a déjà-vu
I found it when searching for something else on google.
It seems to be a compilation of nearly everything you find in these forums,
from TV to pentox (most of the studies have been posted here, but this is a sort of compilation)

QuoteAbstract
Peyronie's disease arises from the deposition of collagen and fibrin which creates a plaque in the
tunica albuginea of the penis. The resulting induration and curvature of the penis leads to sexual
dysfunction in many men. Despite the prevalence of the disease and natural history studies that
suggest progression, men may not seek therapeutic intervention due to a lack of general
knowledge about the disease, its pathophysiology, and treatments aimed at ameliorating its
symptoms. Medical therapy using oral, topical, or intralesionally delivered drug is pursued in all
but the most severe cases. This review of the literature in the last four years attempts to identify
new trials of therapies and treatment modalities aimed at altering the Peyronie's disease process.
Specifically, we will address clinical trials evaluating oral pharmacotherapies, topical,
intralesional, and shockwave therapies, and penile traction devices. We will discuss the level of
evidence and support for each of the new clinical trials.
