Filter by:This phase I/II study will enroll 100 subjects with mild to moderate osteoarthritis of the hip/knee/glenohumeral joints will be enrolled according to strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects will receive a single dose of at least 10 million of autologous Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ADMCS) every three months for 12 months (maximum four doses in total and at least 40 million of ADMCS in total) via ultrasound guided intra-articular injection.
This phase I/II study will enroll 100 subjects with mild to moderate osteoarthritis of the hip/knee/ glenohumeral joint will be enrolled according to strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects will receive every three months a single dose of at least 10 million of Wharton Jelly derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (WJMSC) form the Polish Stem Cell Bank for 12 months (maximum four doses in total and at least 40 million of WJMSC in total) via ultrasound guided intra-articular injection.
NAOBE is a randomized, open and prospective clinical trial that evaluates the accuracy to achieve an adequate mechanical axis of the lower extremity in obese patients after total knee replacement.
A Phase III, prospective, multicentre, non-controlled, with consecutive participant enrollment in order to evaluate the efficacy, safety and duration of the effects of the viscosupplementation with a preparation of sodium hyaluronate 2% (SH2%) from Tedec-Meiji Farma S.A. over 12 months. Adult patients diagnosed with primary osteoarthritis of the knee according to American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria with radiological grades II and III according to Kellgren-Lawrence scale (KL) will receive a single injection of SH2% and will be followed for 1 year with follow up visits at 6 and 12 months. At 6 months patients could be offered a second injection whenever and when they comply with the criteria established for re-treatment and will be followed for additional 6 months
In advanced knee osteoarthritis, postural stability is also disturbed. There are some concerns about performing radiofrequency ablation to genicular nerves since this may further decrease the postural stability of the patient. The aim of this study is to see if application of genicular radiofrequency causes a significant change in postural stability.
A phase I dose-escalation trial to assess safety and efficacy of allogeneic MSC based-treatment (cellistem-OA) in patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis
Prevalence of osteoarthritis increases every year, as a chronic and progressive disease. Osteoarthritis also gives many negative impacts in socio-economic life. Current management of osteoarthritis only aimed to relieve pain but not to resolve the degeneration of cartilage. Mesenchymal stem cell is one kind of adult stem cell that has potency in tissue engineering. Sources of mesenchymal stem cell are bone marrow, adipose tissue and umbilical cord. Researchers want to explore the potential of umbilical cord as the source of allogeneic MSC, because the gaining process of MSC is not invasive. Some countries have started some In vitro studies, Animal studies, and human research, but in Indonesia the study of mesenchymal stem cell implantation from umbilical cord in genu osteoarthritis management has not been reported. This study will be held into two years in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital and include 9 participants minimally. The researcher also compares the efficacy and safety of MSC implantation from umbilical cord applied to genu osteoarthritis with synovial artificial and recombinant human growth hormone therapy.
Unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common finding especially in patients with lower limb malalignment and previous meniscectomy. Among the various treatment options, in recent years there has been an increasing attention towards the use of biologic agents, such as platelet rich plasma and mesenchymal stem cells, as intra-articular injective approaches to relieve pain and restore joint function. Anyway, the sole intra-articular administration of these agents may not lead to satisfactory outcome in a relevant percentage of patients. In fact, unicompartmental osteoarthritis is not only characterized by degeneration of the articular cartilage, but also by pathologic changes in the subchondral bone, both at the tibial plateaux and in the femoral condyle. Magnetic resonance imaging reveals, in many cases, alterations of the subchondral tissue known as "bone marrow edema", which is a sign of bone overload and play a significant role in the progression of unicompartmental OA and is responsible of OA-related symptoms. Therefore, concurrent treatment of both the subchondral bone damage and intra-articular degeneration could led to better outcome for patients affected by unicompartmental OA: the aim of the present pilot trial is to assess the safety and describe the clinical outcome following concurrent intra-articular and subchondral bone application of Bone Marrow Concentrate (BMC). BMC is an autologous product rich in mesenchymal stem cells, which have immuno-modulatory and throfic properties and are able to restore the joint homeostasis by reducing the inflammatory distress traditionally associated to OA. BMC will be collected directly in the operating room from the anterior iliac crest or the tibia by using the MARROW CELLUTION kit (Geistlich, Switzerland), which allows to obtain BMC without the need of centrifugation processes. Approximately 9-10 ml of BMC will be harvested: 6 ml will be injected, under fluoroscopic guidance, in the tibial emiplateaux (approx 3 ml) and in the femoral condyle (approx 3 ml) presenting MRI evidence of bone marrow edema. The remaining amount of BMC will be administered intra-articularly to address articular tissues (cartilage, menisci and synovium). Twenty-five patients affected by unicompartmental knee OA will be included in the present pilot trial and treated in a "Day-Surgery" regimen. They will be followed up at 3, 6, and 12 months' after treatment by clinical questionnaires and radiographic evaluations (x-rays at 6 and 12 months, MRI at 12 months' f-up). Any intra-op and post-op adverse events will be documented.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by loss of cartilage leading to instability, reduced range of motion, and functional limitations. Current treatment has various limitations so that alternative options to restore function and alleviate joint pain, with the ultimate goal of healing damaged articular cartilage are needed. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy has shown promising results. However, MSCs are limited by complex regulatory issues. Lipogems is a technique to harvest, process, and inject minimally manipulated adipose tissue through mild mechanical force. This procedure is enzyme free and requires no clonal expansion or manipulation. The goal of this study is to evaluate the possible benefits of reduced joint pain and increased joint functionality in patients with knee osteoarthritis after the injection of Lipogems.
Periperative neurocognitive disorder(PND) is consistently associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but its mechanisms remain unclear. Moreover, valid biomarkers for the prediction or diagnosis of the development of delayed neurocognitive recovery in aged patients have not been identified so far. The purpose of this study is trying to find the functional MRI marker of PND.
