View clinical trials related to Osteo Arthritis Knee.
Filter by:This is an Individual Patient Expanded Access IND of autologous adipose derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells with the primary goal of treating 1 individual with bilateral knee pain who has exhausted all treatment options, his condition has not improved, and his quality of life is severely affected by the condition. There are no FDA approved, fully restorative treatments for his condition. The subject will receive 2 autologous HB-adMSCs intravenous infusion of 200 million (2 x 10^8 cells) total cells, and 4 autologous HB-adMSCs intra-articular injections (1 in each knee joint/ intervention).
PhotoBioModulation (PBM) is a mature science with therapeutic efficacy in humans and animals, and with excellent results in different medical specialties without side effects. However there are gaps that prevent adoption on a large scale. Recent research developed by our group and partners allowed us to understand the mechanisms of action of PBM, from Molecular Physics through Biochemistry and with consequent clinical validation, with precise, replicable and personalized therapeutic results. These findings have led to treatments for many kinds of pains with industrial predictability and accuracy, phenotypic adequacy technologies that are encapsulated, prescribed, and applied. Photobiomodulation applications cover treatments for pain, inflammation, tissue regeneration, healing, immune system activation, all of which are essential characteristics for osteoarthritis therapy. Our idea is to formulate great challenges of Photobiomodulation as a solution to osteoarthritis as follows: 1) Make PBM-based therapies as predictable as drug-based therapies; this is possible with precise dose calculation performed by our team; 2) Map the biochemical and molecular effects of PBM, including those related to gene expression; 3) Unify PBM theory by synthesizing and giving meaning to the millions of PBM data associated with osteoarthritis and correlating with clinical study to be performed under this thematic project. Overcoming these challenges, PBM will become a complementary (or supplementary) alternative to medications, physiotherapy and surgical procedures for the treatment of osteoarthritis.
