View clinical trials related to Osteoarthritis, Knee.
Filter by:To evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics in patients with osteoarthritic pain of the knee. The most painful knee joint will be identified as the index joint at screening, and this joint will be used for all pain assessments throughout the study.
1. Simple home-based standing balance training and isometric knee extension exercise for 4 weeks would improve functional ability and knee muscle strength of patients with knee osteoarthritis. 2. The outcome of standing balance training is different from isometric knee extension exercise.
this is a randomized double blinded trial which is conducted to measure the efficacy of topical virgin olive oil on osteoarthritis of knee that will be done in contrast to standard piroxicam gel.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single IV doses of PF-04383119 in Japanese patients with moderate to severe pain from OA of the knee (Part I). To evaluate the preliminary analgesic efficacy of PF-04383119 in Japanese patients with moderate to severe pain from OA of the knee in comparison with placebo (Part I and Part II).
The purpouse of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of chondroitin sulphate conventional treatment in patients with both knee osteoarthritis and plaque psoriasis.
The main objective is the long-term comparison (3 years and 4 months) of the efficacy and safety of repeated intra-articular administration of hyaluronic acid in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee.
This study will evaluate dosing regimens of 4975 in terms of safety and tolerability when delivered as an intra-articular injection in the knee. Secondary objectives will be to explore the efficacy of 4975 in terms of onset, extent and duration of pain relief.
The purpose of the study is to use different x-ray and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques to take pictures of the knee. There are two specific purposes to the study: 1. whether the different x-ray and MRI techniques will give the same or different information about the knee joint and 2. which part of the knee joint will show the biggest change using the different x-ray and MRI techniques. The study is not designed to test a hypothesis.
Obesity and osteoarthritis (OA) co-exist in an increasing part of the population. The two diseases intertwine in several ways. The evolution in the population shows a tendency towards deterioration of both by increasing general age and weight. The two diseases share pathogenetic features and the development of one disease increases the risk of the other and may be the onset of a vicious circle. There is a link between treatments of these two diseases as well. There is now solid (gold) evidence that by treating effectively the obesity of patients with co-occurring OA, the functional status is dramatically ameliorated; the short-term results are equal to that of a joint replacement. The long-term efficacy of a weight loss remains to be shown. OA is definitely one of many diseases in which obesity must be taken seriously into account when planning a correct treatment of patients. This trial has two phases, the first (16 weeks) consisting of a dietary intervention with low-energy diet and the second (52 weeks) a randomized, three group (each n>50 patients) controlled study of maintenance of weight loss by either continuing dietary instruction, exercise, or a control group. The hypothesis is that maintenance of an initially induced weight loss is dependent on attention rather than any specific therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether intra-articular injection of Monovisc® hyaluronic acid provides symptomatic relief of osteoarthritis of the knee.
