Trial summary

It was previously proved an association of TGF-β1 and PDGF-BB with the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) by experiments of OA animal models. In this study, we aimed to determine whether serum concentrations of TGF-β1, PDGF-BB and CTX-1 were related to the knee OA. Read more about this study

  • Ages 38 to 78 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: 210 patients diagnosed with knee OA in clinics were found in hospital patients . Healthy controls were recruited from community questionnaires in Shihezi city, Xinjiang province, China.

Who may be able to join

  • OA diagnosis was on the basis of the diagnosis and treatment guideline of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons

Who cannot join

  • Participants who met the following criteria were excluded:
  • the knee OA concomitant with hip OA,
  • suppurative and rheumatoid arthritis,
  • gout patients,
  • patients who underwent knee arthroscopy surgery within 6 months,
  • bilateral or unilateral knee replacements,
  • the knee joint trauma patients,
  • histories of glucocorticoid and/or sterol hormones.

About this study

It was previously proved an association of TGF-β1 and PDGF-BB with the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) by experiments of OA animal models. In this study, we aimed to determine whether serum concentrations of TGF-β1, PDGF-BB and CTX-1 were related to the knee OA. knee OA cases were collected from the first affiliated hospital of Shihezi university and healthy controls were recruited from the community. The severity of knee OA was defined as kellgren-lawrence (K-L) classification criteria.Serum levels of chemical biomarkers were compared between knee OA cases and controls or among K-L grade 2 to grade 4 groups. The serum concentrations of the TGF-β1, PDGF-BB and CTX-1 were determined by ELISA .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Shihezi University.

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 8 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 10 Jan 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. 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?

Serum levels of Transforming Growth Factor Beta1 (TGF-β1) and Platelet Derived Growth Factor BB (PDGF-BB) may be novel biomarkers in knee osteoarthritis (time frame: 3 years). 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 10 Jan 2017.
