The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intra-articular injections of SI-613 compared with placebo for knee OA.
This study evaluates postoperative analgesic efficacy within 48 hours between epidural analgesia and single-shot bilateral adductor canal blocks in bilateral total knee arthroplasty. Half of participants will be received continuous epidural analgesia, while other half of participants will be received single-shot bilateral adductor canal blocks.
The main objective of the study was to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the efficacy of a single intra-articular injection of OSTENIL PLUS compared to that of a single intra-articular injection of the reference product SYNVISC-ONE in the treatment of symptomatic tibiofemoral osteoarthritis. The primary endpoint was the change in mean score on the WOMAC pain scales from D0 to D180.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a major component of synovial fluid, to which it confers viscosity and elasticity. It has been shown that the rheological properties of the synovial fluid decrease in patients with osteoarthritis. Intra-articular injections of hyaluronic acid represents a commonly used therapeutic option to relieve osteoarthritic symptoms, by exerting a mechanical action on cartilaginous structures of the joints, thus leading to reduced pain and improved joint function. Platelet-rich Plasma is an autologous product prepared from the patient's own blood. Potential benefits of platelet-rich plasma for the treatment of cartilage defects have been suggested by many in vitro and animal studies. There are an increasing number of clinical studies assessing the benefits of platelet rich plasma in the treatment of osteoarthritis, showing that platelet rich plasma improves symptoms with no serious adverse events reported. On the basis of the above, HA and platelet-rich plasma have the potential to provide added benefits in osteoarthritis symptoms when combined, in particular in patients who have had previous intra-articular HA treatment but who are still experiencing pain. Preliminary evidence to this effect was presented at the 2014 Annual Congress of the French Rheumatology Society by a group of French investigators. Renevier and Marc enrolled patients who had not experienced adequate symptom relief from previous intra-articular HA treatment and treated them with HA plus platelet-rich plasma prepared using A-CP HA Kit. Of the 71 patients treated, approximately 90% were classified as responders based on the OMERACT-OARSI criteria. The A-CP HA Kit allows for the preparation of a homogenous solution of platelet-rich plasma and HA, intended to be injected intra-articularly for the treatment of pain in osteoarthritis. In patients who had previous intra-articular HA treatment but who are still experiencing pain, treatment with HA plus platelet rich plasma could provide a safe and reproducible option before surgery.
Glucosamine is an important part of the treatment strategy for osteoarthritis, but its effectiveness is still controversial. To explain the efficacy differences of glucosamine, in this study the investigators detect the concentration of glucosamine in the plasma and synovial fluid, some effect indexes such as inflammatory markers and gene polymorphism of glucosamine transporters. On the one hand, the investigators compare the plasma peak and gluten glucosamine concentration and the concentration in synovial fluid among participants to observe the individual differences of glucosamine exposure in vivo. On the other hand, the investigators investigate the correlation between drug concentrations, effect index and gene polymorphism. The hypothesis is that glucosamine exposure in vivo has individual differences and gene polymorphism can explain this differences.
This is a study to evaluate the Clinical Performance and Safety of a single intra-articular (i.a.) injection of hyaluronic acid product (as HL-01) in the treatment of pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
Randomized controlled trial regarding the efficacy of a multimodal topical analgesic, Multiprofen, in comparison to placebo cream treatment on knee pain and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
To investigate the effects of video game play therapy in patients with knee osteoarthritis
The purpose of this study is to test whether adding a treatment using pain neuroscience education (PNE) and coping skills training (CST) to usual care, in subjects with knee osteoarthritis and pain catastrophizing, who are scheduled for a total knee arthroplasty (TKA), is more effective than only usual care. There is a high evidence level of different systematic reviews, which support the efficacy of physiotherapy treatments combined with behavioural techniques aimed to reduce pain catastrophism, pain and disability in other pathologies. The primary aim of that kind of interventions is to help the subjects to reconceptualise its own pain understanding and its role on the recovery process, as well as promoting an increase of activity and encourage the subject to resume its usual activity instead of continuing to avoid it.
