Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis"

KIO014 is an innovative chitosan-based biomaterial intended for synovial fluid viscosupplementation indicated for the symptomatic treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study KIO014-APROOVE is aimed to evaluate the safety and performance of KIO014 in patients with symptomatic knee OA. A total of 100 patients will be enrolled. The study is divided in two stages. The Stage 1 cohort is the safety cohort where 10 patients will be enrolled. Stage 1 patients receiving two injections of KIO014 at day 0 and at month 3, and will be followed for 12 months post initial injection. The Stage 2 cohort is the performance cohort for 90 patients, and this stage will be randomized controlled and single-blind for the patient. In stage 2, 60 patients will receive an intra-articular injection of KIO014 (test group) and 30 patients will receive an intra-articular injection of Durolane® (control group). Patients will be followed for 6 months.

This study will focus on grade I to III knee osteoarthritis by randomized controlled trials which comparing the effectiveness between placebo, autologous platelet rich plasma and autologous platelet lysate injections.

This is a randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of variable load training in patients with knee osteoarthrosis. The intervention will consist of resistance training with variable load in knee extension- and flexion. The control group will receive conventional strength training with rubber band. Outcome measures will be the Knee Osteoarthrosis Outcome Score, functional capacity measured in a sit to stand test, 30m. pace walk and a 9 step stair climb test. Additionally isometric strength in knee flexion- and extension will be measured.

Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative knee condition of the knee which is treated symptomatically. Knee cartilage tissue has little regenerative ability With the developments in regenerative medicine, stem cells might also be used in knee OA. Recently, adipose tissue has been identified as means for autologous mesenchymal stem cells (aMAT) using non-enzymatic method. Lipogems® is FDA-approved closed-system and directly producing ready-to-use aMAT. Some observational studies showed its potential in knee chondropathy. With no clinical trial done as yet, the investigators will hereby study the comparative efficacy of corticosteroid (current practice) versus Lipogems® in patients with knee OA. The knee MRI changes, clinical and patient-based outcomes will compared between baseline and throughout till 6 months after treatment. This study aims to show the comparative efficacy of Lipogems® as compared to corticosteroid in knee OA patients and to demonstrate its cartilage regeneration potential, which will ultimately deter surgery.

Using double-blind, randomized controlled design to compare the immediate, short-term and intermediate-term additional therapeutic effects of ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection and dextrose injection of hyaluronic acid injection on patients with knee osteoarthritis, under the basis of International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health.

To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of primary mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis through a comparative study with sodium hyaluronate. 20 participants will receive low dose of dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells, 20 participants will receive high dose and another 20 participants will receive sodium hyaluronate

Total knee arthroplasty(TKA) is a successful orthopedic surgery with excellent clinical outcome and survival. However, there are concerns about patient satisfaction in previous reports, and dissatisfaction rate of 15-30% is reported in clinical outcomes(PROMs) of some studies. Therefore, for improving the patient's outcome and satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty, it is necessary to change the design of the conventional total knee arthroplsaty implant. The knee is a joint structure with several dynamic functions, and not only the skeletal structure but also the soft tissue balance plays an important role in the function of the knee joint. New implants are being developed to overcome the limitations of conventional TKA implant, including the Journey II Bi-cruciate substituting total knee system (JII-BCS; Smith & Nephew). JII-BCS implant has normal articular geometry, more anatomical femoral shape, lateral tibial convex geometry, and asymmetrical tibial plateau, anterior and posterior cams, which has been shown in experimental studies to produce nearly normal knee movement by reproducing the actual normal anatomical alignment in vivo. The clinical results of the kinematic effects of this anatomcally aligned change are insufficient, and there is also a lack of comparative studies with conventional total knee arthroplasty implant. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes between anatomically aligned TKA(JII-BCS) and conventional TKA(Legion total knee system, Smith & Nephew). This study is a randomized controlled study in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty. A patient will undergo unilateral TKA with anatomically aligned or conventional TKA implant. The implant is determined using a random number table. Radiologic parameter, patients preference and clinical results was investigated in patients who received unilateral TKA during minimum 2 year follow up.

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Corin Optimised Positioning System (Corin, U.K.) reduces the rate of hip dislocation at one-year post-operatively compared with standard templating in patients undergoing total hip replacement. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether the Corin Optimised Positioning System (Corin, U.K.) improves functional outcomes, reduces length of hospital stay, and reduces leg length discrepancy compared with standard templating in patients undergoing total hip replacement.

This multicenter clinical trial aims to investigate the exact effect of drainage use for osteoarthritis patients in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) on post-operative performance.
