A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of 2ccPA in Patients With Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis...
OsteoarthritisKneeThis phase I/II study aims to evaluate the safety of single doses of 2ccPA 4,800 μg and 7,200 μg (Phase I), as well as the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of 2ccPA (Phase II) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
Evaluation of Pain Level Reduction After Low-dose Radiation in Symptomatic Facet Joint Arthritis...
Lower Back Pain ChronicFacet Joint Arthrosis2 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) with intra-articular steroid injections in participants suffering from chronic lower back pain as cause of facet joint arthritis (FJA). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Is LDRT non-inferior to intra-articular steroid injections in terms of pain reduction Is there a difference in long-term pain reduction between LDRT and intra-articular steroid injections Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups.
Safety and Pharmacodynamics of GNSC-001 Intra-articular Injection for Knee Osteoarthritis
OsteoarthritisKnee2 moreThe goal of this clinical study is to determine if a single injection of 1 or more dose levels of adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy (GNSC-001) is safe and tolerated compared to placebo in participants with painful osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.
Knee Osteotomy Associated With Allograft Meniscus Transplantation
MalalignmentBone2 moreThis is a prospective randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial with parallel arms and 1:1 allocation. The main objective of the BIOMAT project is to demonstrate, through an RCT, whether the combined approach by knee osteotomy and MAT can provide clinical improvement over knee osteotomy alone for the treatment of patients with monocompartmental knee OA associated with meniscal insufficiency and lower extremity malalignment. Secondary objectives are to demonstrate whether the addition of MAT to knee osteotomy in patients with monocompartmental OA can improve biomechanical parameters and whether this treatment has protective effects on the joint environment and cartilage degeneration.
Pain Informed Movement for People With Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee OsteoarthritisThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare a pain informed movement program to standard neuromuscular exercise in people with knee osteoarthritis. The main question it aims to answer are: Are the two interventions a) pain informed movement program plus pain neuroscience education and b) neuromuscular exercise plus standard osteoarthritis education feasible in terms of recruitment, treatment adherence, timelines, data collection procedures, patient follow-up, and resources required? Is there a difference in patient's satisfaction and acceptability of the two programs? Are there any differences in the potential effects of the two programs on subjective pain measures, self-reported function, quality of life, functional leg strength, nervous system pain modulation, brain derived neurotrophic factor and nerve growth factor levels, and psychological factors?
Denervation for Osteoarthritis in the PIP-joint Efficacy Study (DOPS)
Osteoarthritis FingerSurgeryThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of a surgical and a non-surgical treatment method in patients with osteoarthritis in the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are the treatments effective? Is the surgical treatment more effective than the non-surgical treatment? Participants will receive surgical treatment (PIP joint denervation) or non surgical treatment (patient education plus exercise). Researchers will compare the non-surgical and surgical groups to see if pain, patient-reported function, quality of life, movement and grip strength differs between the groups.
Role of Topical Vancomycin in Reducing Infections in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
OsteoarthritisKnee4 moreThe study is designed to assess the efficacy of vancomycin powder and dilute povidone-iodine lavage (VIP protocol) in reducing the PJI after primary Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) and Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). We hypothesized that VIP protocol provides superior reduction of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) rates after primary THA and TKA compared with diluted povidone-iodine (PI) protocol.
Study of Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of DFV890 in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis
Symptomatic Knee OsteoarthritisThis is a double-blinded, two-arm, phase II study to assess efficacy, safety and tolerability of DFV890 in participants with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis. The study includes a screening period, a treatment period and a follow-up period. At most, the study duration is 21 weeks.
A Study of Alendronate Sodium Vitamin D3 Tablets on Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee OsteoarthritisThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of alendronate sodium vitamin D3 tablets compared with placebo on the improvement of joint structure and joint pain in participants with knee osteoarthritis. The treatment period of this study is one year and followed-up period is 2 years. The results of knee joint MRI will be evaluated by using the WORMS score.
The Phosphodiesterase 3 Inhibitor Cilostazol as an Adjunct to Conventional Therapy in Patients With...
OsteoarthritisCilostazol is able to suppress the degradation of type II collagen in human chondrocytes induced by IL-1b. Cilostazol add-on for celecoxib therapy has synergistic anti-arthritic potential by inhibiting proinflammatory cytokine production in synovial fibroblasts through the IL-10/SOCS3 pathways, consequently leading to the inhibition of synovial cell proliferation and overcoming the perpetuation of synovial inflammation.
