Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of Different Injection Regimens of Autologous Conditioned Plasma for Knee Osteoarthritis (NCT NCT03889925)

NCT ID: NCT03889925

Last Updated: 2025-02-24

Results Overview

Patient reported outcome measure; The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function. A sum of the scores for all three subscales gives a total score. Higher scores indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.

Measure
Autologous Conditioned Plasma Group
Participants in this group will receive a three-injection series of autologous conditioned plasma over the course of 3 consecutive weeks. Autologous conditioned plasma: Patients will receive 3 intra-articular injections of autologous conditioned plasma dosed at once a week for 3 weeks.
Autologous Conditioned Plasma With Hyaluronic Acid Group
Participants in this group will receive a two-injection series of autologous conditioned plasma and hyaluronic acid (Hymovis, Fidia Pharmaceuticals) and a third injection on the third week of autologous conditioned plasma. Hyaluronan: Patients will receive 2 intra-articular injections of autologous conditioned plasma and hyaluronic acid once a week for 2 weeks and a third injection on the third week of ACP.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months post injections

Patient reported outcome measure; Scores are obtained by summing the individual items, then transforming the crude total to a scaled number that ranges from 0 to 100. This final number is interpreted as a measure of function with higher scores representing higher levels of function.
