Clinical Trial Summary

For patients suffering of osteoarthritis, only analgesic treatments such as anti-inflammatory drugs and cortisone infiltrations provide significant but temporary relief of their pain. The objective is to compare the analgesic effect of 2 infiltrations: Cingal (sodium hyaluronate and triamcinolone) versus cortisone (triamcinolone). It is anticipated that the Cingal infiltration will have a greater analgesic effect than a simple cortisone infiltration in patients with moderate to severe osteoarthritis of the shoulder. Method: - Randomized controlled trial - Monocentric - Randomization will be done using sealed envelopes


Clinical Trial Description

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease. The progressive erosion of cartilage generates inflammation, pain, and progressive deterioration of joint mobility. Synthetic molecules similar to hyaluronic acid have made it possible to offer patients the option of visco-supplementation by intra-articular injection. It decreases inflammation and pain. CINGAL (Anika Therapeutics, Inc., Bedford, MA), which combines the lubricating action of hyaluronic acid and the anti-inflammatory action of triamcinolone hexacetonide, is one of the available treatments. Several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid in the relief of gonarthrosis. However, the efficacy between an infiltration of hyaluronic acid combined with triamcinolone and a corticosteroid infiltration for glenohumeral osteoarthritis is hardly reviewed in scientific studies. Primary objective: To compare the analgesic effect of two different infiltrations. Secondary outcome: To evaluate the patient's functional ability It is anticipated that a CINGAL infiltration will have a greater beneficial effect than a simple cortisone infiltration in patients with mild to severe shoulder OA. 84 patients with moderate to severe shoulder osteoarthritis will be recruited to receive intra-articular infiltration of CINGAL or cortisone. The infiltration will be randomly assigned. A standard x-ray and magnetic resonance imaging examination will be performed before the infiltration. Demographic data, medical history and 2 questionnaires will be completed prior to infiltration. Once the evaluation is completed, the patient is randomized and referred to radiology to receive his infiltration under fluoroscopy by a radiologist assigned to the project. Two electronic questionnaires and a medication diary will be sent to the patient at 1, 3 and 6 months post-infiltration. ;
