Brief Summary

The purpose is to explore the possible benefit of administration of Fisetin, (a senolytic agent) to improve the benefit of Platelet-Rich Plasma and losartan for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement and labral tear.

We believe that giving Fisetin, a senolytic agent, will improve the benefit of PRP by eliminating senescent cells and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), known to exist in PRP. The main objectives of this study are to determine if pre- and post-operative administration of a senolytic agent will improve the beneficial effects of PRP when used in conjunction with surgical treatment of FAI and/or labral tear, to determine whether pre- and postoperative administration of Fisetin is associated with adverse events, and to determine if pre- and post-operative administration of Fisetin leads to a decrease in systemic senescence, serum SASP, and fibrotic markers.

Patients suffering from femoroacetabular impingement and labral tear, who are planning to undergo hip arthroscopy combined with standard of care intra-operative PRP injection and post-operative losartan administration will be recruited from the clinical practice of the Principal Clinical Investigator or his designee at The Steadman Clinic (TSC).

Detailed Description

This is a pilot, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo control clinical trial is proposed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a senolytic agent (Fisetin) to improve the benefits of standard of care platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection and antifibrotic medication (Losartan) in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and/or labral tear (LT).
