About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of a Second Course of Intra-articular Injections of TPX-100 in Subjects Who Previously Received TPX-100 for Patellar Osteoarthritis Involving Both Knees

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a second course of TPX-100 administered by intra-articular injection to subjects with osteoarthritis of the knee who participated in study TPX-100-1.

Read the detailed description

Recruit up to 70 subjects whom participated in protocol TPX-100-1. The opposing knee that was treated will be getting 200mg in 4 weekly injections. The knee that was treated in TPX-100-1 will get randomized to either 200mg dose or a placebo lookalike. The investigators will follow these subjects for 6 months. Two MRIs of bi-lateral knees will be assessed. Also collection of ADA samples at 4 time points through the 6 month period.

Being tested
TPX-100 200 mg 4 times weekly for 4 weeks
Medical subject headings
Osteoarthritis, Knee

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0. evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a second course of TPX-100 who participated in study TPX-100-1

    Safety, Tolerability and primary efficacy

    Measured: Follow subjects for 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in patellar cartilage thickness in each knee as measured on standardized MRI from baseline to 6 months.

    Longitudinal changes in Patellar compartment cartilage thickness/thinness

    Measured: Follow subjects for 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TPX-100 200 mg 4 times weekly for 4 weeks in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by OrthoTrophix, Inc.

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 28 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 19 Sep 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0. evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a second course of TPX-100 who participated in study TPX-100-1 (time frame: Follow subjects for 6 months). 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 19 Sep 2017.
