Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether habitual physical activity and sedentary behaviour improve six weeks and between three to six months after total knee replacement surgery in people with osteoarthritis.
This study is a double-blind, randomized, controlled study with two arms to evaluate JointStem as a treatment for subjects with osteoarthritis. Following a 2-week screening period, approximately 30 subjects will be randomly assigned into one of the following two arms in a 2:1 ratio (2 JointStem : 1 positive control). After each subject completes 6-month visit (Visit 6) and the data management team confirms all data have no issue, the individual database will be locked and the blinding will be open for the statistical analysis.Only subjects who are assigned will be requested to visit the study center for 9-month and 12-month follow-up visits (Visits 7 and 8). To see long-term effects of JointStem, all subjects who complete Visit 6 will be requested to visit the study center at 24-month after the injection.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate an algorithm to screen patients with suspected knee osteoarthritis referred to an orthopedic outpatient clinic by using radiographs and patient-reported symptoms. It will be investigated whether the algorithm is able to identify which patients that are deemed relevant to undergo an orthopedic assessment. This will be evaluated by estimating the sensitivity of the new algorithm compared to with the traditional clinical assessment of the patients.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease in which there is an imbalance between the breakdown and repair of the joint tissue. Intraarticular hyaluronic acid (HA) injections are used for the management of knee OA. Currently, there is limited and inconclusive evidence supporting use of HA injections for management of knee OA. The primary objective of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness of HA injections in the management of knee OA. Investigators will evaluate if HA injections prevent or delay knee OA surgical interventions.
Recently, the medical community has learned damage to the knee joint may be one of many possible reasons for pain in knee osteoarthritis. Psychological factors and other aspects of brain function seem to play an important role in the pain experience. Although research studies have examined these factors on an individual basis, no study has examined all of these factors in the same population. Furthermore, some measures of brain function- having to do with perception of the painful body part- have yet to be examined in knee osteoarthritis. The investigators plan to study many of these variables in a group of people with knee osteoarthritis, as well in some healthy controls (without knee pain), in order to establish the relative importance of these measures in contributing to pain, as well as validate new measures of perception in people with knee osteoarthritis. We also plan to use a statistical tool- known as latent profile analysis- to look at subgroups of knee osteoarthritis pain. The hypothesis is that different people experience pain in knee osteoarthritis for different reasons. This study will be the first study to use all of these different variables- which can be reproduced in a clinical setting- to look for different subgroups of knee osteoarthritis pain. Ultimately, the goal is to help clinicians better prioritize and target interventions to individual patients. The investigators believe this will lead to better outcomes and fewer treatment complications currently associates with pharmaceutical and surgical interventions that are widely used to treat knee osteoarthritis.
The objective of this study is to collect post market data on safety and performance of the Atlas Knee System in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the medial knee compartment through a 24 months post-operative follow-up period.
The Primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of VX-150 in the treatment of osteoarthritis pain
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous transplantation of Adipose Tissue derived Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in patient with Knee Osteoarthritis.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common chronic conditions and a leading cause of disability among Veterans. Although exercise is known to improve pain, physical abilities, and other outcomes for patients who have knee OA, most individuals with this condition are physically inactive. Therefore there is a need to develop programs that will help Veterans and others with knee OA to increase activity levels. This study will examine a stepped approach to helping Veterans with knee OA to increase physical activity, with increasing levels of program intensity when needed for individual patients to meaningfully improve pain and physical function.
