Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

Autologous bone marrow concentrate

Placebo

Arm Description

Subjects with symptomatic mild to moderate bilateral knee osteoarthritis will be enrolled in this study. Bone marrow will be aspirated from the patient's iliac crests and the cellular rich portion will be concentrated. Randomly, one knee will be injected with the autologous bone marrow aspirate concentrate. The contralateral knee will be injected with only sterile saline for placebo.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Subjects with Adverse Reactions to Concentrated Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
Occurrence of adverse reactions to concentrated MSCs from bone marrow aspiration injected into knee joints.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Mean Knee Cartilage
Knee cartilage status will be measured prior to injection, at 6 months following injection, and at 12 months following injection. The cartilage will be measured by MRI at baseline and 6 months using MRI and cartilage sequencing techniques, and knee radiographs at 12 months.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The overall goal of this study is to develop regenerative cell therapy for use in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). The primary objective of this proposal is to conduct a pilot study that assesses the safety and feasibility of using concentrated bone marrow aspirate containing MSC to treat patients with painful knee OA.
Detailed Description
Patients with symptomatic mild to moderate bilateral knee osteoarthritis will be candidates for this pilot study. Baseline data includes radiographs, MRI imaging, clinical data on knee pain and analysis of synovial fluid inflammatory markers. Bone marrow will be aspirated from the patient's iliac crests and the cellular rich portion will be concentrated. Randomly, one knee will be injected with the bone marrow concentrate. The contralateral knee will be injected with only sterile saline for placebo. Follow-up analysis of synovial fluid will be at one week and 6 months after injection; clinical data will be obtained at 3, 6 and 12 months and MRI imaging will be performed at 6 months after injection, with repeat radiographs at 12 months
