Collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) is an injectable therapy targeting collagen present in penile plaques in Peyronie’s disease (PD). Data comparing CCH to penile surgery are limited, and long-term therapeutic outcomes are unknown. This retrospective analysis used a US claims database (January 2014–June 2017) to determine the percentage of men with subsequent penile surgery among those who initially received CCH ( n  = 1227) or surgery (index treatment;  n  = 620) for PD. Eligible patients were aged ≥18 years with continuous enrollment ≥6 months before and ≥12 months after index treatment date. During 12 months of post-index treatment follow-up, fewer patients with PD initially treated with CCH (4.6% [56/1227]) had subsequent penile surgery versus those initially treated with penile surgery (10.3% [64/620];  p  &lt; 0.0001). Mean ± SD time to first subsequent surgery after initial PD treatment was longer in the CCH versus surgery cohort (7.7 ± 3.0 vs 1.7 ± 3.2 months). The likelihood of subsequent surgery varied by initial surgery type: 18.2% after plaque incision or excision with grafting; 11.6% after penile implant; and 8.2% after tunical plication. Patients with PD who received CCH first were less likely to undergo subsequent surgery compared with those who received surgery first within a 12-month post-treatment follow-up.
