About this study

OOsteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by progressive degeneration of cartilage and bone tissue, leading to the appearance of subchondral cysts, osteophyte formation and synovial inflammation. Although the causes of OA are still poorly understood, biomechanical stresses able to reach the articular cartilage and subchondral bone, biochemical changes in cartilage and synovial membrane, as well as genetic factors are important items in its pathogenesis. Although there is no cure for OA, treatment is directed to each individual patient, seeking to minimize pain, maintain or improve joint range of motion and limit disability. New therapies able to accelerate regeneration and tissue repair process are being discussed. The viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid (HA) have been shown to be an effective and safe treatment alternative in the fight against knee OA, in addition to HA, worth highlighting the therapeutic effects of growth factors derived from autologous platelets. The platelet-rich plasma (PRP) appears as an autologous therapy, non-immunogenic, able to induce healing and repair of bone soft tissue. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy, comparing treatment with PRP and the combination of HA and PRP in the treatment of knee OA. To this, 120 will be selected OA patients with mild, moderate and severe (Grade II, III and IV). Selected patients will be scheduled for the procedures and randomly assigned randomly. In PRP be determined concentrations of the growth factor PDGF, TGFb 1, VEGF, EGF, by the method Bio Plex®.\. Functional evaluations will be conducted through questionnaires (WOMAC and SF-36) as measures of function and quality of self-reported life. The walking and strength test will be performed before and during periods of 90.180 and 360 days after the first application. The main motivation for the development of this study is the lack of randomized, double-blind clinical studies in the literature, and also based on the favorable results researchers have obtained, both with the use of HA, as the use of PRP in accelerating the process scar, preventing the development of arthrosis above. Therefore, we believe that the PRP, with its growth factors associated with synthetic HA play a synergistic action that should be studied in detail, in order to establish an effective therapeutic approach in the treatment of patients with knee OA.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Platelets Rich Plasma, Leucocyte - Platelets Rich Plasma and Hialuronic Acid in people with Osteoarthrosis, run by University of Campinas, Brazil at 1 site in Brazil.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2016. 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 Brazil. 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 combined 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Womac (time frame: 1 year). 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 4 Oct 2016.
