What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Microdrilling SurgeryProcedure or surgery

    All patients will undergo an arthroscopic surgical procedure in which small holes are drilled throughout the areas of damaged cartilage (standard of care)

  • Injections of BMAC + PRP + HAProcedure or surgery

    All patients will receive up to 12 intra-articular knee injections of BMAC (derived from iliac crest), PRP (derived from peripheral blood) and HA

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score

    Measured: Change from baseline at 5 years post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Joint Space Changes

    Evaluated by plain radiographs

    Measured: 2 and 5 years post-operatively

  2. MRI appearance of repair cartilage

    Evaluated using the MOCART scoring system

    Measured: 2 and 5 years post-operatively

  3. Frequency of adverse events requiring additional procedures

    Measured: Continuously for 5 years post-operatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Microdrilling Surgery and Injections of BMAC + PRP + HA in people with Unilateral Primary Osteoarthritis of Knee and Osteoarthritis Knee, run by Joseph E. Broyles.

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 0 inclusion and 18 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 27 Jul 2023. 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 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?

Change in International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score (time frame: Change from baseline at 5 years post-operatively). 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 27 Jul 2023.
