Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis"

The objective of the study is to test the effects of a herbal supplement, Phytalgic, on the symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee or hip, in patients with OA using NSAIDs or analgesics on a regular basis.

The purpouse of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of chondroitin sulphate conventional treatment in patients with both knee osteoarthritis and plaque psoriasis.

The aim of this study is to provide evidence that the safety and effectiveness of the ceramic femoral component of the Gem Total Knee System is similar to FDA approved implants used in total knee replacement surgery. The hypotheses to be tested are that the investigational and control groups are equivalent in terms of patient success rate and complication-free rate.

to evaluate the influence of PRGF treatment on patient suffering from OA knee

The purpose of this study was to examine a low and high dose of tapentadol extended release tablet taken orally twice a day to reduce pain in subjects suffering from chronic moderate to severe pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee during a 4-week period. Subjects steadily increased their dose up to the low (100 mg) or high (200 mg) dose. Pain relief was compared to subjects taking placebo tablets or oxycodone extended release tablet, 20 mg. The serum concentrations and safety of tapentadol and oxycodone were also examined.

The main objective of this clinical study is the estimation of the rate of intersomatic fusion observed 12 months after lumbar interbody fusion by posterior approach with PEEK interbody cage of fusion in PEEK performed with autologous bone of decortication and osseous substitute with a biomaterial (MatriBONE associated with the autologous bone marrow), associated with a posterolateral bone graft performed with MatriBone waxed with bone marrow. Indication is dedicated for patients by painful degenerative osteoarthritis, by narrow lumbar canal and\or spondylolisthesis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the investigators can achieve better early outcomes adding triamcinolone to the viscosupplementation procedure.

Study design: Randomized clinical trial. Objective: To evaluate the effect of PSW treatment in different doses and to compare to the control and placebo group. Background: Several forms of conservative treatment have been the focus of many recent studies in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Among these techniques, the application of pulsed short wave has been widely used, but the optimal dose and application time still have not been well established.

The objective of this study was to explore the efficacy, dose-response and safety of PG201 tablet in Korean patients with osteoarthritis.

STUDY OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate equivalent clinical and radiologic outcomes as "gold standard" (Autologous Bone Graft) in a representative clinical model (hindfoot fusions) STUDY HYPOTHESIS: Augment® Injectable is an equivalent bone grafting substitute to autologous bone graft in applications as shown by superiority analysis for safety and non-inferiority analysis for effectiveness STUDY RATIONALE: To evaluate a fully synthetic bone graft material to facilitate fusion in conditions or injuries requiring bone graft in a representative clinical fusion model and thus the opportunity to provide equivalent union rates as Autologous Bone Graft without necessitating an additional invasive procedure to harvest the graft
