Filter by:This pilot study will test the testing and exercise training protocols for a larger study that is in the desing phase and may be modified based on the findings of this study. Two exercise groups will be compared; one is a stadard treatment group using leg strength exercises that are commonly employed in therapy clinics. The other group will do balance and agility type exercises, but no specific strength exercises. These "KBA" exercises are increasingly common in therapy clinics, but very little research has been conducted on their effectiveness in treating knee osteoarthritis symptoms. Participants in this study will complete three short paper and pencil tests at the beginning and end of the study (8 weeks of exercise) as well as a leg strength test, a leg endurance test, two short walking tests, and a stair climb/descend test. One of the paper and pencil tests will be taken every two weeks in an effort to see how quickly changes to symptoms might occur. The exercise programs will be conducted 3 afternoons per week (Mon-Wed-Fri) and will be lead by an ACSM certified instructor.
To study of efficacy and safety of Naproxcinod vs. Naproxen and Placebo in the indication of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis
The purpose of this study is to use better magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to examine the knee and the bony and soft tissue changes so as to better predict the progression of osteoarthritis and acute knee injuries.
Derris Scandens Benth (family : Leguminosae) is a woody vine growing throughout Southeast Asia, including Thailand. The stem of D.Scandens has been widely use in Thai traditional medicine, foe example of myalgia. Previous study shown that D.Scandens Benth extract has the anti-inflammatory activity. Although NSAIDs are efficaciously in the treatment of osteoarthritis,but the GI side effect is still concerned. In this study we aim to investigate the efficacy and safety of D. Scandens Benth extract compared with Naproxen for therapy of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
ThermoProfen is a transdermal ketoprofen patch that is integrated with a long-lasting CHADD (Controlled Heat-Assisted Drug Delivery) unit for the treatment of chronic pain associated with osteoarthritis. This study will evaluate ThermoProfen for the treatment of mild to moderate pain associated with osteoarthritis of the knee in adults.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether implanting gold beads extraarticularly in five acupuncture-points around a knee improves pain, stiffness and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether tapentadol (CG5503) prolonged-release (PR) tablets at doses of 100-250 mg twice daily provide a better pain relief in patients with moderate to severe chronic pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee than a placebo (a medication without active substance). In addition the tolerability of CG5503 PR will be assessed. One third of the patients will receive CG5503 and one third will receive placebo. For further comparison one third of the patients will receive oxycodone controlled release (CR) at doses of 20-50 mg twice daily which is an active approved pain medication. Please note that tapentadol ER (Extended Release) and tapentadol PR (Prolonged Release) are identical and used interchangeably. This is due to United States of America and European naming conventions.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral salmon calcitonin in the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.
This study valuates the safety and efficacy of treatment with 3% Diclofenac Nano-Emulsion Cream versus Placebo in subjects with osteoarthritis of the knee.
This 39-week, active controlled, study is designed to assess long-term efficacy, safety and tolerability of lumiracoxib 100mg od in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee who participated in the 13-week core CCOX189A2361 study.
