Sixty patients of osteoarthritis of knees or hips were enrolled in this study. Inclusion criteria were: age 20 to 80 years; primary osteoarthritis in at least 1 knee or hip, verified; at least moderate pain during 2 weeks before random assignment to treatment, as identified by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) LK3.0 Osteoarthritis Index pain subscale for more than 4.

Primary outcome measures were WOMAC at week 12.

Secondary outcome measures were WOMAC at week 4 and 8; Visual analogue scale (VAS) , Quality of life by SF-36, patient global assessment (PGA), at week 4, 8 and 12; serum levels of osteocalcin, C-terminal telopeptide(CTX), Hs-CRP, and ESR.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing JING CEIH SHERN YUAN EXTRACT PILL in people with Osteoarthritis, run by Chung Shan Medical 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2019. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) (time frame: week 0, week 12). 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 1 Oct 2019.
