Knee Osteoarthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Efficacy of Hylan G-F 20 (Synvisc One) Injections in the Routine Management of Patients With Early Osteoarthritis of the Knee -a Randomised Controlled Trial (Pilot)
Treatment for early osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is an increasing problem yet much of the
research into OA, to date, concentrates on predisposition, genetic and cellular aspects and
the treatment of late stage disease (arthroplasty). Clinicians reviewing patients with early
OA have great difficulty in recommending an appropriate and efficacious intervention.
The first line of treatment for patients with early OA is exercise, self-management and
weight loss. These tools are suggested to minimize the need for higher risk treatments such
as non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and surgery. Viscosupplementation using
intra-articular injections of hyaluronan (Synvisc One) is a relatively new treatment. To
date, the ideal patient for viscosupplementation has yet to be defined. It is not known
whether incorporation of viscosupplementation into the overall clinical management will have
beneficial influence for patients with early OA of the knee.
This study will generate rigorous pilot data to assess the need and inform a larger
randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessing the efficacy of viscosupplementation. The study
will be a single blind randomised RCT. 60 patients with documented early OA will be
randomised into one of two groupsÍž Group V will undergo "one shot" viscosupplementation
using Synvisc One in addition to routine physiotherapy management for knee OA. Group No V
(control) will have no viscosupplementation but will undergo similar routine management
including physiotherapy management for knee OA. Outcome measures will include walking pain
(The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index-WOMAC), the overall WOMAC
score, Oxford Knee Score (OKS), American Knee Society score (AKS), complications, activity
level and patient satisfaction. Health economics will also be evaluated. Measurements will
be recorded pre-intervention and at six months following treatment.
The risks associated with viscosupplementation are minimal. Considering the limited
resources currently available in health care, if the latter is shown to have higher
effectiveness than physiotherapy alone, in addition to patient benefit, there will be
important health economic implications.
