Filter by:This study evaluates effects of PRP and physiotherapy on pain, physical function and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
This phase 3 study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of lorecivivint injected intraarticularly (IA) into the target knee (most painful) joint of moderately to severely symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) subjects at a single dose of 0.07 mg lorecivivint per 2 mL injection. This study will utilize patient reported outcomes (PROs) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lorecivivint.
A roll-over study of the current CM-2019 trial to assess the same preplanned outcomes of CM-2019 at 14 weeks.
This is a multicentre, prospective, sponsor initiated clinical investigation that aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of Hyaluronic Acid Combined With Chondroitin Sulfate in symptomatic patients with OA of the knee.
The population affected by degenerative knee arthritis is very large. The investigator performed Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN). This experiment used a randomized single-blind experiment to assess the immediate, short-term and long-term effects of Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN) therapy on patellar pain in patients with degenerative arthritis.
This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy of an oral liquid HA supplement (A+HA) in symptoms relief and improvement of quality of life in knee osteoarthritis patients with mild knee pain.
The hypothesis of this project is that the injection of an innovative treatment (microfat and dose of autologous PRP) allows to delay knee arthroplasty in patients with knee OA resistant to medical treatment.
The study aims to conduct a randomized trial comparing the clinical outcomes of PRP (standard intervention) versus Microfragmented adipose tissue (investigational) for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Hypothesis: Both interventions will result in significant improvement in patient-reported outcomes. We hypothesize that Microfragmented adipose tissue will provide superior outcomes.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis and race is a risk factor for poor outcomes. African-Americans (AAs) report greater OA-related disability and pain severity compared to their Non-Hispanic White (NHW) counterparts. These disparities are reinforced through social and biological mechanisms, ultimately resulting in dramatic racial disparities in pain experience and associated quality of life. Low-carbohydrate diets (LCDs) reduce inflammation and pain independent of weight loss, but significant racial differences exist in metabolism that are rarely addressed in diet interventions. The overall objective of the proposed study is to determine whether the beneficial effects of an LCD for knee OA pain are related to race. The investigators will recruit 20 adult women (65-75) with knee OA with equal representation across racial groups (10 AA, 10 NHW). Following one week of diet and pain self-report, the investigators will assess quality of life, depression, experienced pain and evoked pain. Participants will be placed on a LCD wherein all meals and snacks will be delivered weekly after consult with study personnel. Participants will return every 3 weeks for testing during the 12-week intervention with blood drawn at baseline and at the conclusion of the 12-week diet. Blood will be assayed for oxidative stress markers. This will be the first assessment of racial differences in the efficacy of a LCD to reduce knee OA pain. Objective 1: To determine whether the LCD reduces pain after 12 weeks. Hypothesis: The LCD will significantly reduce evoked and self-reported pain. Objective 2: To determine whether the benefits of the LCD differ based on race. Hypothesis 1: The LCD will reduce evoked and self-reported pain more in AA than in NHW. Hypothesis 2: AAs will experience greater improvements in depression, quality of life, pain interference and show more weight loss than NHWs. Objective 3: To determine whether the LCD has a differential impact on oxidative stress by race. Hypothesis 1: The LCD will significantly reduce oxidative stress over 12 weeks. Hypothesis 2: AAs will show greater reductions in oxidative stress than NHWs. The reduction in oxidative stress will be correlated with reduction in evoked pain.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder in the U.S. and a leading cause of disability. Depression and obesity are highly comorbid among knee osteoarthritis patients, and the combination of obesity and depression is associated with decreased physical activity, higher pain and disability, and more rapid cartilage degradation. Depression, obesity and osteoarthritis exacerbate one another and share a common pathophysiology involving systemic inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines, reflecting a complex mind-body interaction. Current treatments for knee osteoarthritis offer little to no benefit over placebo, and do not emphasize mind-body practices or physical activity to target the underlying pathophysiology. Mind-body interventions to lessen depressive symptoms and increase physical activity offer the ability to target biological, mechanical and psychological mechanisms of osteoarthritis progression in this high-risk subset. The long-term goals are to evaluate the mechanisms by which the Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (3RP) delivered via telehealth, and adapted for patients with depression, obesity and knee OA (GetHealthy-OA) promotes increases in physical activity and improved subjective and objective aspects of knee health. The overarching hypothesis is that the synergistic interaction between mindfulness, adaptive thinking, positive psychology and healthy living skills of the GetHealthy-OA will reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine expression while also promoting optimal mechanical loading of the cartilage thereby slowing the progression of symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. This study aims to adapt the 3RP for the needs of knee osteoarthritis patients with depression and obesity with a focus of increasing physical activity, and iteratively establish the feasibility, credibility and acceptability of the programs and research procedures.
