About this study

Official title: Observational Study on the Feasibility, Safety and Efficacy in the Biological Reconstruction of the Hip Joint With Full Thickness Cartilage Defects With an in Situ Polymerizable and Chondrocyte Populated Biomaterial (NOVOCART® Inject)

Non-interventional study to evaluate safety and efficacy of NOVOCART® Inject in patients with full thickness cartilage defects in the hip.

Read the detailed description

Prospective and multicenter non-interventional study to evaluate safety and efficacy of NOVOCART® Inject in patients with impingement syndrom in the hip.

Safety: 24-month post treatment follow up period by measuring the number of adverse drug reactions/serious adverse drug reactions.

Efficacy: 24-month post treatment follow up period using iHOT 33 and EuroQuol-5D-5L.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cartilage Disease, run by Tetec AG at 3 sites in Germany.

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 7 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

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?

Number of adverse drug reactions/serious adverse drug reactions as a measurement of safety. (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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?
