Trial Outcomes & Findings for Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis With Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cells (NCT NCT01183728)

NCT ID: NCT01183728

Last Updated: 2015-01-15

Results Overview

Clinical review, questionaires (VAS - Visual Analogue Scale (a psychometric response scale which can be used for subjective measurements of knee pain), WOMAC - Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (questionnaire to quantify the pain, stiffness and physical function in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip), Lequesne Index (is a composite measure of pain and disability, with specific self-report questionnaires for knee (osteoarthritis)), SF36 life quality - Short Form 36 (is a questionnaire for the detection of changes in quality of life)). In all cases, the scale was from 0 to 100%. Measurements were performed before cell transplantation (0) and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months afterwards depending on the questionnaire. For VAS, WOMAC and Lequesne, lower values represent a better outcome. For SF-36, higher values represent a better outcome. VAS-DA, VAS for pain associated to daily activities. VAS-SP, VAS for pain associated to sports activities.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 0, 6, 12, 24 months

Clinical exploration, questionaires (VAS, WOMAC, Lequesne Index, SF-36 life quality) at all the periods. To evaluate effectiveness through development of criteria for quantitative MRI (Cartigram) denoting regeneration of articular cartilage at 6, 12 and 24 months after the implantation of MSV. Magnetic Resonance imaging measurements of T2 relaxation (Cartigram) performed at 0, 6 and 12 months to quantify articular cartilage degeneration. The values (in milliseconds) are T1/2 for decay of the T2 MRI signals. Normal values are below 50 ms; values above 50 ms correspond to inflamed cartilage. Mean (SD) are expressed as the percent of values (of a total of 88 measurements) that are between 50 and 90 ms. A value =5 is considered normal (can be attained by chance). Values above 5 are considered pathological. The worst possible is 100.
