About this study

Does the presence of gene polymorphisms -1575G / A in the MMP-2 gene, 836A / G in the MMP-9 gene and -77A / G in the MMP-13 gene, affect the risk of developing idiopathic knee osteoarthritis in the Greek population?

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective case-control study in which the patients' genotype will be studied against the genotype of the controls. The study is prospective and not retrospective, as data will be collected from patients with primary knee osteoarthritis as well as the control group from the outset. The study intends to include 200 people. The first group consists of 100 individuals suffering from knee osteoarthritis, while the second group will include 100 healthy controls without osteoarthritis. From each one DNA will be isolated and analyzed from collected blood. The prospective study allows valid data to be collected on patient demographics and disease severity. Due to the large number of cases of the disease, it is estimated that the necessary specimens will be collected within a reasonable time from the beginning of this thesis. The choice of the patient-control study is necessary to limit the influence of confounding factors (age, gender, obesity, etc.). This type of study includes rigorous selection of patients and controls with specific entry and exclusion criteria, selection of controls based on matching patient characteristics, stratification, and subgroup analyzes. The final result will be a comparison of the incidence of specific gene polymorphisms between patients with knee osteoarthritis and the normal population.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 18 Aug 2022. 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 Greece. 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.

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?

Contact Christos Milaras, Phd Cand. (+306942267715, mil1384@yahoo.gr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The frequency of presence of gene polymorphisms -1575G / A MMP-2 gene, 836A / G MMP-9 gene and -77A / G MMP-13 gene, in Greek patients with knee osteoarthritis comparing with healthy people (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04463290, which also lists 25 linked publications.

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.
