About this study

Official title: Evaluation the Side Effect of Bone Marrow Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell in Patients With Osteoarthritis of Hip Joint

Osteoarthritis of the hip is a common type of osteoarthritis which can cause significant problems. First-line of management for patient with osteoarthritis consists of weight reduction, education, and analgesic medication. If necessary, invasive treatment like total hip replacement are performed for the patient. The objective of this study was to assess the safety of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) implantation in patients with hip osteoarthritis

Read the detailed description

This is a phase one clinical study designed to investigate the safety of intra-articular injection of cultured autologous BM-MSCs in patients with severe hip osteoarthritis candidate for total hip replacement. All subjects will undergo bone marrow aspiration. Autologous MSCs will be extracted and cultured for 4 weeks. Patients will receive intra-articular injection of cultured MSCs under the guide of fluoroscopy. Paraclinical studies (X-Ray and MRI) will be done before and 6 months after treatment. Pain relief and functional improvement of the joint will be assessed by VAS, WOMAC, and Harris Hip Score questionnaire before treatment, and 2 and 6 months after treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing stem cell injection in people with Hip Osteoarthritis, run by Royan Institute at 1 site in Iran.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

swelling of hip joint (time frame: 2 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01499056, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Dec 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
