Filter by:HST003 is a human extracellular matrix designed for injection into the subchondral bone following microfracture surgery by an injection into the interstices created by the surgical awl and filling the full defect to help restore-regenerate hyaline cartilage to a pre-injury state. In this Phase 1/2 clinical trial, we will be addressing the knee joint in conjunction with microfracture surgery. HST003 is human extracellular matrix secreted by human dermal fibroblasts under hypoxic conditions. The various matrix proteins produce a combination structural scaffold in addition to the natural secreted glycoproteins such as lubricin, fibronectin, laminins, hyaluronic acid, and collagens - all critical components of cartilage, particularly hyaline cartilage. This Phase 1/2 study will help design additional studies to support FDA approval for the use of HST003 in focal cartilage defects in the knee resulting from recent traumatic injury.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes in clinical and imaging outcomes following arthroscopic treatment of chondral lesion(s) by Radiofrequency-Based debridement or Mechanical Debridement in subjects 18-50 years of age.
To test using a randomised control trial, whether conservative rehabilitation and protected weight bearing versus early weight bearing and accelerated rehabilitation affects patient outcomes post microfracture surgery of the knee.

The overall study objective is to evaluate Chondrofix Osteochondral Allograft ("Chondrofix") for the repair of osteochondral lesions in the knee. This includes, but is not limited to primary cartilage lesion repair and revision of failed prior cartilage repair treatments. The study hypothesis is that Chondrofix Allograft will provide pain relief and functional improvement as demonstrated by a comparative analysis of baseline clinical evaluations at 24 months of follow-up.
ISTO Technologies, Inc. is proposing a clinical study with 225 subjects, to establish the safety and efficacy of the Neocartilage Implant for the treatment of ICRS Grade 3 and 4 articular cartilage lesions of the knee compared to microfracture treatment.
This study will look at patients with post-operative treatment of a meniscal tear or degenerative joint disease (degenerative arthritis). They will be randomized into one of three groups: Euflexxa injection, saline (placebo) injection, or no injection. Those who are randomized into the injection group will receive a series of three injections (one a week for 3 weeks), then a "booster" injection at 6 months post-op. Several questionnaires will be given after the first set of injections, then again at a one year follow-up. The hypothesis is that patients receiving hyaluronic acid injections will have better pain and function scores as compared with placebo and no further treatment at all time points.
The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of the Trufit CB (Cartilage Bone) implant for the treatment of single, isolated cartilage defects of the knee compared to Microfracture.
This confirmatory study is a prospective randomized trial comparing the efficacy and safety of an autologous chondrocyte tissue implant (NeoCart) to the surgical intervention microfracture in the treatment of cartilage defects in the knee.
The Cartilage Autograft Implantation System (CAIS) is designed as a single surgical treatment of damaged knee cartilage using the subject's own healthy cartilage obtained from a non-weight or low weight-bearing region. CAIS is indicated for the repair of articular cartilage lesions and osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the knee through cartilage regeneration.
