Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Knee"

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of intraarticular injection of umbilical cord derived Wharton's Jelly for treatment of knee osteoarthritis symptoms.

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of autologous StroMel™ for the treatment of moderate to severe OA of the knee joint.

The French Society of Rheumatology cannot rule on the value of intra-articular injections of PRP due to the lack of hindsight and insufficient data. In fact, the injection protocols are very heterogeneous in terms of preparation method, the presence or not of leukocytes, the number of centrifugations, the volume injected, the ultrasound guidance, which makes it difficult to analyze the literature. The investigator objective is therefore to evaluate the effectiveness of combined injections of PRP and hyaluronic acid.

The general purpose of this study is to evaluate the relation between the nutritional status of patients, the features of the orthobiologics products used for patients' treatment and the clinical outcomes after one-step conservative regenerative treatment for knee osteoarthritis.

This study will combine brain imaging and neuromodulation tools to investigate the underlying neurobiological mechanisms of exercises. The findings will enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying mind-body exercise and facilitate the development of new pain management approaches.

The study will evaluate the performance, clinical benefits and safety of the Persona Revision Knee System in patients who have received primary or revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) treatment. This will be done using a multicenter, single-arm, consecutive series, retrospective cohort study with prospective follow-up.

Prospective, randomized, single-blind, multinational, long-term study for the evaluation of the clinical outcome, oxidation profile and wear analysis of medium cross-linked Polyethylene with and without Vitamin E for total knee arthroplasty

Rationale: In view of patient care, patient characteristics and treatment parameters are registered for all patients visiting the Mobility Clinic of the University Medical Center Utrecht for orthopaedic knee treatment. Patients also fill out questionnaires for function, pain and mobility of the knee, before and after treatment. Objective: The main objective of this registry is to collect patient characteristics and treatment parameters together with data from the questionnaires in a database. This knee registry can be used for future research questions. Study design: This is a longitudinal observational registry. Study population: All patients that visit the Mobility Clinic will be asked to participate in the knee registry. Patients that meet one or more of the following criteria will be excluded: are below the age of 16, not able or willing to sign the broad consent form, not being able to read and understand Dutch language, or receiving medical treatment for their knee elsewhere. Main study parameters/endpoints: Data will be collected for future research for which the purpose is not known at this time. When new research will be conducted, study parameters will be set. A study application has to be submitted to the institutional ethical review board of the University Medical Center Utrecht. Patients do not need to be asked permission for the use of their data for each study individually. Only when additional information is needed. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The burden for patients to participate in this registry is minimal and consists of time. Any future results may be beneficial for patients. Participation or refusal to participate in the registry has no consequences for their treatment.

This study will evaluate the efficacy of Transcutaneous Vagal Stimulation in people whit knee osteoarthritis.

The aim of the study is to compare the clinical effects of treatment of knee osteoarthritis using adipose tissue mesenchymal stromal cells obtained by an enzymatic method with the outcomes of the therapy with the mechanically fragmented adipose tissue. Identification and functional analysis of the regenerative capacity of MSCs derived from the adipose tissue depending on three variables (body weight, sex and age) will help to develop a targeted therapy for different groups of patients and will determine the effectiveness of both methods of treatment. An attempt was made to identify the groups of patients with the greatest regeneration potential of the adipose tissue, and thus indicate those with the most probable improvement of the joint condition.
