Filter by:The purpose of this investigator-initiated study is to assess the efficacy of treating patellofemoral osteoarthritis with an Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product (ATMP), autologous nasal chondrocyte tissue engineered cartilage (N-TEC), in comparison with a standard therapy using platelet rich plasma injections. The engineered cartilage graft is obtained by culturing expanded autologous nasal chondrocytes within a collagen type I/III membrane.
This is a crossover study that will investigate the immediate effects of a proximal therapeutic approach (SERF strap) and a distal one (foot orthoses) on knee pain intensity, global change, symptoms, ease of performance and confidence after each task and lower limb kinematics (hip adduction and internal hip rotation peak, rearfoor eversion peak) during functional taks (level-ground walking and stepping manoeuvres) in people with patellofemoral ostheoartritis
