Active clinical trials for "Osteoarthritis, Knee"

Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label, multicenter clinical trial comparing treatment with allogeneic mesenchymal cells versus autologous mesenchymal cells and versus active control with hyaluronic acid in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

It is hypothesized that a single Intra-articular Injection of TTAX03, 100mg in 2mL of saline, will have more benefit with respect to the proportion of responders 12 weeks post-injection than an equal volume of saline, based on the OMERACT-OARSI responder criteria.

Excessive knee joint loads during walking can contribute to knee osteoarthritis progression. Changing the rotation of the foot (in-toeing or out-toeing) while walking can lower knee joint loads and improve pain and function. Telerehabilitation (using video or telephone communication to delivery rehabilitation) has shown promise in delivering exercise therapy for knee osteoarthritis, but it is unknown if walking modifications can be delivered using this method. This study consists of a six-week walking modification program in people with knee osteoarthritis. Performance of the modification will be measured using motion capture and wearable sensors during practice and daily life.

Osteoarthritis (OA), the most common type of arthritis, affects more than 32.5 million adults in the United States. It is also among the most expensive condition to treat when joint replacement surgery is required. Although biomechanics plays an important role in OA disease, the non-surgical treatment options addressing biomechanics are scarce with limited effect. AposHealth is the fist biomechanical treatment that was shown to have a significant short-term effect on patients with knee OA. The main objectives of this study are: To assess AposHealth, a non-invasive home-based biomechanical treatment, as an alternative treatment for patients who are eligible for Total Knee Replacement (TKR). To assess AposHealth as a new post-operative rehabilitation tool for patients post TKR.

metformin alleviates drug-induced osteoarthritis (OA)-like change in mice knee joint through activating autophagy and downregulating apoptosis. Metformin exerts its protective effects against OA through the AMPKa2/ SIRT1 pathway. Metformin suppresses IL-1β-induced oxidative and osteoarthritis-like inflammatory changes by enhancing the SIRT3/PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway, thereby indicating metformin's potential in prevention and treatment of osteoarthritic joint disease.

PPV-06 immunotherapy targets interleukin-6 (IL-6), a key molecule of the immune system whose overproduction is implicated in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. The benefit of vaccination with PPV-06 is to induce, in response to immunizations, the production of antibodies directed against IL-6. The antibodies produced will neutralize the biological activity of IL-6 involved in the body's inflammatory process. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety/tolerability of vaccination with PPV-06.

The objective of this investigation is to evaluate the safety of the geniculate artery embolization (GAE) procedure with HydroPearl® Microspheres in 30 patients with knee pain caused by osteoarthritis with 24 months follow-up. The GAE procedure is an arterial embolization procedure that blocks abnormal blood vessels caused be knee arthritis in order to evaluate the effect on knee pain.

The need for exploration of more definitive and cost effective non-arthroplasty treatments of osteoarthritis (OA) has been demonstrated by the orthopedic and health economic research. Embolotherapy of neovessels associated with OA joints has been shown to be promising in patients with knee OA. There is a need for level one evidence drawn from randomized clinical trials to prove the safety, feasibility and efficacy of knee embolotherapy compared to standard of care. This randomized pilot study will assign 10 patients with mild-moderate OA to undergo geniculate artery embolization plus standard of care (defined in this study as: physical therapy and oral anti-inflammatory medications, with a maximum of 1 joint injection at the time of enrollment) and 10 patients to receive only medical standard of care (also having had a maximum of 1 joint injection prior to enrollment). The goal of this pilot study is to obtain preliminary estimates of safety and efficacy of embolotherapy to provide sustained symptom control and modify disease progression in patients with mild to moderate knee OA.

The primary purpose of this study was to determine if cannabinoid use decreases narcotic consumption in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

This study aims to compare the efficacy of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell and secretome between arthroscopy and without arthroscopy intervention in OA patients. This study has 4 arms namely Arthroscopy + Booster, Arthroscopy + Pre-conditioning, Non-Arthroscopy + Booster, Non-Arthroscopy + Pre-conditioning.
