Uncemented Tritanium TKR vs Cemented Triathlon TKR

Knee Osteoarthritis

The Study aims to investigate whether there is a clinically important difference in peri-articular bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS) between patients undergoing two different types of knee replacement fixation - uncemented Tritanium total knee replacement (TKR) and cemented Triathlon TKR. Before undertaking a full randomised control trial however, it is necessary to establish that the proposed methodology and approach are feasible. Therefore an internal pilot study will be performed first. This registration is for the internal pilot study.

Impact of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Knee Osteoarthritis

Musculoskeletal PainKnee Osteoarthritis2 more

Many patients with osteoarthritis of the knee fail non-operative measures and elect to have knee arthroplasty to improve their quality of life. If successful, intra-articular mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) injections into the knee may offer another viable non-operative treatment modality. Additionally, this modality may have reparative or regenerative potential, which could lead to the first treatment for osteoarthritis that treats the underlying disease as opposed to symptomatic control. Additionally, there are no acceptable non-surgical treatments for focal chondral defects of the knee. Surgical treatments that do exist have diminished outcomes if performed on patients older than age 30-40 years. If successful, intra-articular MSC injections into the knee would represent the first non-operative treatment for focal chondral defects and also represent a potential option for treatment in patients over the age of 30-40 years. This trial will be a prospective, single-center phase I pilot study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intra-articular injection of autologous bone marrow-derived MSCs in 16 subjects, 8 who have knee osteoarthritis and 8 who have a focal chondral defect in the knee. Patients will undergo a bone marrow harvest procedure at the Dahms Clinical Research Unit (DCRU) of University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center. MSCs will be isolated and expanded. After approximately 2-3 weeks, patients will return for an intra-articular injection of 50x106 MSCs Subsequent study visits will occur on post-injection day 7 and months 2, 6, 12, and 24. Safety of intra-articular injection of MSCs will be evaluated at study visits by interval history, physical examination and assessment of any adverse events that are observed/reported. Additionally, efficacy will be evaluated by having patients complete functional outcome measures including: Visual Analog Score (VAS) for pain, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Knee Form, and Lysholm Knee Scale. These will be completed at the pre-treatment visit and then repeated at the 2, 6, 12, and 24-month follow-up visits. Lastly, T1 rho and T2 mapping on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) will be used to assess for improved cartilage quality after intra-articular injection of MSCs. An MRI will be obtained at the pre-treatment visit. At the 12 and 24 month follow up visit, additional MRIs will be obtained and analyzed to compare the pre-treatment MRI to post-treatment MRIs.

Navio Robotic Versus Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty

OsteoarthritisKnee

Total knee replacement surgery is a conventional approach to alleviating the pain and lack of function resulting from arthritis of the knee. While conventional knee replacement surgery is highly successful, incidences of improperly installed replacement parts are not uncommon. To improve outcomes, robotic-assisted total knee replacement surgery has recently become available, and has been shown to be extremely effective for partial knee replacement surgery. However, further research is needed to determine if this same technology can be equally effective for total knee replacement surgery. The present study will evaluate outcomes of robotic-assisted versus conventional total knee replacement surgery in patients between 40 and 85 years old with end stage arthritis of the knee. Other than surgical technique, patients will receive the same operative care and knee replacement implants. In addition to standard x-rays, subjects will be asked to complete several short-term clinical and functional tests and questionnaires to determine outcomes of their surgery.

Colchicine for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee

OsteoarthritisOsteo Arthritis Knee

This prospective, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial will enroll 120 SKOA subjects at the NYU Center for Musculoskeletal Care. Patients meeting entry criteria will be randomized 1:1 to treatment with colchicine or placebo daily for 3 months. Subjects will have detailed evaluation of standardized clinical pain outcomes, candidate peripheral blood biomarkers, baseline knee radiographs as well as MSK-US, and a subset will undergo evaluation of their synovial fluid.

Knee OsteoarthritisArthropathy of Knee

This study aims to compare the postoperative clinical outcomes of Infrapatellar Fat Pad (IPFP) preservation versus resection after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Participants will be identified as normal IPFP or abnormal IPFP based on MRI findings before randomization. The primary outcome is the summed score of Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) covering pain, symptoms, activities of daily life, sport & recreation, knee-related quality of life, and KOOS subscale assessing activities of daily life, sport & recreation. The secondary endpoints will be included: KOOS subscales (pain, symptoms and quality of life), Knee Society Score (KSS), 100 mm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain, timed up-and-go test, depression, patellar tendon shortening, 100 mm VAS self-reported efficacy of reduced pain and increased quality of life. Adverse events will be recorded. Primary and secondary outcomes will be evaluated or reported blindly at baseline and at postoperative 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year. Intention-to-treat analyses will be used.
