Filter by:The aim of the study is to compare the clinical effects of treatment of knee osteoarthritis using adipose tissue mesenchymal stromal cells obtained by an enzymatic method with the outcomes of the therapy with the mechanically fragmented adipose tissue. Identification and functional analysis of the regenerative capacity of MSCs derived from the adipose tissue depending on three variables (body weight, sex and age) will help to develop a targeted therapy for different groups of patients and will determine the effectiveness of both methods of treatment. An attempt was made to identify the groups of patients with the greatest regeneration potential of the adipose tissue, and thus indicate those with the most probable improvement of the joint condition.
A 12-week, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Phase 3 study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of HP-5000 in Subjects with Osteoarthritis (OA) Pain of the Knee
This clinical trial is being done to better understand how daily treatment with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), or the combination of CBD plus THC affects knee osteoarthritis pain and other related symptoms. Consented participants will have a screening period and visit (up to 30 days to treatment start). If participants pass the screening phase, they will be randomly assigned to take one of the investigational study drugs. For this study, participants will not know when or if they are taking CBD, THC, THC plus CBD, and when or if taking placebo. Clinical pain will be assessed at multiple times throughout the study, and eligibility will be re-assessed at two weeks into the treatment period. It is possible that subjects will not be able to participate in the study after two weeks of treatment.The treatment period will take approximately 16 weeks and then a follow-up period for approximately 2 weeks. In addition to treatment, participants will have clinical assessments, blood draws, questionnaires, daily pain diaries, sensory testing, as well as have functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging (fcMRI). This studies primary hypothesis is that CBD alone will exert a peripheral anti-inflammatory effect shown through decreases in circulating levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), THC alone will modify central nervous system (CNS) pain processing via decreased insula to Default Mode Network (DMN) connectivity, and CBD plus THC will do both.
This study will be conducted to compare the effect of BFR with LLRT versus neuromuscular training on quadriceps muscle strength, knee joint function and proprioception accuracy.
This study is a prospective, randomized, longitudinal study of the clinical outcomes of osteoarthritis patients treated by two different alignment philosophies for total knee replacement. All patients will be treated with the same knee system, implanted using MAKO robotic-arm assisted technology.
This study compares and evaluates differences in movement analysis, patient-reported outcome, radiological assesment and muscular function between patients undergoing carpometacarpal joint arthroplasty with use of modern implants and trapeziectomy with suspensionplasty
Primary osteoarthritis is a debilitating disease characterized by extensive damage to the joints and excruciating pain leading to loss of activity and depression. Despite advances in diagnosis, the quest for the development of a disease-modifying osteoarthritis drug has proven unsuccessful. Human cartilage only has limited regenerative potential. Transplantation is a promising strategy given the high proliferative capacity of MSCs and their potential to differentiate into cartilage-producing cells - chondrocytes. The acquisition of MSC does not require invasive surgical intervention or cartilage extraction from other sites as required by other cell-based strategies. The investigators inject allogeneic human mesenchymal stem cells to the cartilage lesions in patients via intra-articular injection method, and to investigate the efficacy and safety.
this study will be conducted to investigate the role of hip strengthening in improving dynamic knee stability, gait parameter, lower extremity strength and disability in knee osteoarthritis
This study is a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-arm, non-inferiority study that will be carried out in China. It aims to compare two implant systems (the research group uses surface-modified composite coated orthopedic implants, and controls group using conventional orthopedic implants) safety and effectiveness. A total of 240 patients were recruited. The recruited patients are randomly divided into groups at a ratio of 1:1 to ensure that the distribution of patients in the treatment group and the control group is consistent. Patients will receive clinical follow-up in the 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months postoperatively. The main indicator for evaluation is the postoperative infection rate, and the secondary indicators include the SF-12 scoring scale, EQ-5D patient questionnaire score, fracture healing, malunion, nonunion incidence in the 12th month after surgery, and skin and soft tissue complications Symptom incidence rate. The follow-up data will be used to determine the main safety and effectiveness of the new surface modified composite coated orthopedic implant system.
This is a phase 2 open-label, 6 arms (1 study group and 1 control group for each joint category), randomized control group clinical study with 300 subjects diagnosed with osteoarthritis of knees (n=100), hips (n=100) and shoulders (n=100). The study subjects will be evaluated for disease-associated severity according to symptoms, such as pain, mobility, daily active life, and functions using arthritis society established specific measurement tools related to the joints (KOOS and KSS for OA-knees: HOOS and HHS for OA-hips and ASES and CSS for OA-shoulders).
