Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis"

This is a Phase 2 study, involving a 4-week treatment period, designed to test the ability of investigational study drug ARRY-371797 to reduce pain in patients with moderate to severe pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee, and to further evaluate the drug's safety. Approximately 150 patients from the US will be enrolled in this study.

The purpose of this proposed study is to conduct a trial with knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients using the diclofenac gel.

The purpose of the trial is to determine whether GRT6005 is effective in patients with pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee.

In this prospective study we aim to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the implantation of 40 millions MSV in knees with osteoarthritis of grade II-IV (Kellgren and Lawrence). The working hypothesis proposes that MSV antiinflammatory effect will help healing of articular cartilage degeneration to a grade enough to be objectivized by questionnaires and imaging procedures. The study of quantitative changes in structure and composition of cartilage determined by MRI T2-mapping (Cartigram ) will be performed at 6, 12 and 24 months. Pain and disability will be assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS), WOMAC, Lequesne Index and evaluation of the quality of life by Short Form 36 questionnaire (SF-36) completed at 3, 6,12 and 24 months.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of 110 mg ketoprofen in Transfersome applied to the skin twice daily as compared to placebo and oral celecoxib 200 mg per day for the relief of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee for a period of six weeks.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of multiple doses of once daily tramadol HCl ER (100, 200, 300 and 400 mg) to placebo in patients with moderate to severe pain due to OA. The study hypothesis is that tramadol HCl ER is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe pain due to OA.

safety, efficacy and acceptability of Flavocoxid

The primary objective is to compare the overall treatment effect on pain relief between icatibant and placebo. The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy of icatibant in term of onset, extent and duration of pain relief relative to triamcinolone, to evaluate the safety of icatibant, to evaluate overall conditions of daily life after treatment with icatibant, to assess systemic exposure of icatibant following intra-articular injection.

This research is being done to evaluate the effects of a sleeping pill (eszopiclone, Lunesta)in patients with arthritis of the knee who also suffer from chronic insomnia. This study will test whether Lunesta improves sleep, pain sensitivity, and daytime symptoms in patients with knee pain.

The purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of tramadol HCl ER 100 mg, 200 mg and 300 mg once a day (QD), with placebo in patients with moderate to severe pain due to OA. For the purposes of this study, celecoxib will serve as a positive control to validate the sensitivity of the model. The study hypothesis is that tramadol HCl ER is safe and effective in the treatment of moderate to severe pain due to OA.
