Trial summary

The primary objective of this study is to compare a combination of hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate (V0220) to Hyalgan® on pain relief in patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) over 24 weeks when administered in three weekly injections. Chondroitin sulfate is one of the components of cartilage. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of Efficacy and Safety of Three Intra Articular Injections of V0220 Versus Hyalgan® in Patients Suffering From Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis. A Multinational Multicentric, Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel-group Study

The primary objective of this study is to compare a combination of hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate (V0220) to Hyalgan® on pain relief in patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) over 24 weeks when administered in three weekly injections.

Chondroitin sulfate is one of the components of cartilage. Studies have shown that chondroitin sulphate improves the quality of the hyaluronic acid produced in the joint. The benefit of V0220 combination is based on two main physicochemical properties, in line with the characteristics of osteoarthritic disease: optimising the rheological behaviour and improving the buffering effect on synovial flow ("outflow buffering").

Being tested
Chondroitin sulfate and sodium hyaluronate, Hyaluronan

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chondroitin sulfate and sodium hyaluronate and Hyaluronan in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Pierre Fabre Medicament.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain relief assessed on a global pain Visual Analogic Scale (time frame: change from baseline over 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2013.
