Filter by:The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of MACI® vs arthroscopic microfracture in the treatment of patients aged 10 to 17 years with symptomatic articular chondral or osteochondral defects of the knee.
Patellar chondromalacia is the degeneration of articular cartilage located on the posterior face of the patella and may suggest the onset of an osteoarthrosis. It predominates in sedentary people who overload the joint, as well as people with insufficiency in the extensor muscles of the knee. It is often seen between 30 and 40 years. Conservative management is the main treatment option and surgical intervention is considered as a last option in a small number of patients. A new treatment option is neuroprolotherapy where the approach is directed at the subcutaneous nerves as the source of pathology, which can lead to neurogenic inflammation and pain.
Multicenter, open-label, controlled, non-randomized, double arm trial with a prospective treatment arm (GelrinC). This study compares the efficacy and safety of GelrinC to a historical control arm (microfracture) in the treatment of cartilage defects in the knee.
This study is prospective single arm extension study of protocol AAG-G-H-1220. It is open only to participants of AAG-G-H-1220 randomized to the Microfracture treatment group.
This is a 24-month, multicenter, randomized, open-label, standard treatment-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 2 study for adults with large or complicated knee articular cartilage lesions and are candidates for knee joint cartilage repair surgery. The safety and efficacy of intra-articular injections of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) together with hyaluronic acid (HA) after subchondral drilling surgery will be evaluated to determine whether PBSC therapy can improve functional outcome and reduce pain of the knee joint better than a standard treatment (HA injections and physiotherapy regimen).
The data registry will increase the knowledge of outcomes for treatment of focal cartilage defects of the patella treated with the BioPoly RS Patella Implant and will allow monitoring of the clinical safety and performance of the device and surgical implantation kit
Retrospective non-interventional study to evaluate safety and efficacy of NOVOCART® Inject in patients with full-thickness cartilage defects in the knee joint.
There are 2 phases in this study: Phase 1 (dose escalation) and Phase 2 (dose expansion). The goal of Phase 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of lenvatinib and Xeloda (capecitabine) that can be given to patients with advanced cancer. The goal of Phase 2 of this study is to learn if the dose of lenvatinib and capecitabine found in Phase 1 can help to control advanced cancer. The safety of this drug combination will be studied in both phases of the study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ReJoinTM for the Knee Osteoarthritis patients with Cartilage Defects comparing to Sodium Hyaluronate Injection.
This study is aimed at evaluating the feasibility and effectiveness of a completely natural tissue engineered cartilage, composed of a self-made tissue engineered oriented scaffold and autologous chondrocytes, for repairing articular cartilage damage following injury. And it is also aimed at investigating the safety of tissue engineered cartilage transplantation.
