Evaluation of Effectiveness of Combined Intra-articular & Intra-osseus

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common diseases resulting in large burdens on society. Among the emerging treatments, Bone Marrow Concentrate (BMC) intra-articular injections are a promising regenerative approach. However, they offer only a temporary benefit since they target synovial and chondral tissues but fail to address the osteochondral interface, which plays a key role in the onset and progression of joint degeneration. This project will investigate the efficacy of combined BMC injections, targeting both intra-articular tissues and subchondral bone, to treat OA in a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT).

Clinical Trial Description

The main aim is to evaluate in a RCT the potential of a new combined BMC treatment for OA, through the use of scores for the clinical outcome, the study of imaging and biological samples for tissue regeneration and systemic effects, and the identification of BMC and patient characteristics predictive of better results. All patients will undergo an arthroscopic procedure to debride degenerated tissues (this can offer a temporary benefit but not long lasting results) before BMC intra-articular injection. Half patients will receive also the injection of BMC at the subchondral level (bone samples obtained to allow BMC placement will be sent to the Lab). The same minimally invasive incisions will be used for all patients, ensuring patient blinding. Evaluations, performed by medical staff not involved in the treatment to ensure double blinding, will document subjective clinical improvement, functional measurements, biomarker study, and imaging with the use of modern 3TMRI and qCT technology. BMC characterization and patient features will be analysed to identify factors predictive of a better outcome. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
