Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Osteoarthritis, the most common joint disease, has a high social and individual impact and the development of therapeutic options is a public health priority. It's multifactorial etiology is still a source of active research
Most common conservative treatments for osteoarthritis treatment include painkillers, active physical therapies, orthotics, infiltrations of corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid (HA), and platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
PRP may be beneficial in osteoarthritis by interfering with catabolic and inflammatory events and by subsequently promoting anabolic responses. Activation of PRP releases biologically active components, including platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor-β (PGF-β), type I insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). These proteins are responsible for a range of critical tissue healing roles such as chondrocyte and mesenchymal stem cells proliferation, bone and vessel remodelling, inflammatory modulation and collagen synthesis.
For osteoarthritis, an improvement of clinical outcomes has been found in several clinical trials, presumably associated with the chondroprotective effect of PRP. Nevertheless, an in-vivo effect on human cartilage regeneration is not yet demonstrated despite the numerous studies approaching the subject.
Preclinical models elucidated how injected Adipose Derived- Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AD-MSC) coordinate the cartilage regeneration process through paracrine mechanisms, producing cytokines and trophic bioactive factors that stimulate cellular proliferation, reduce inflammation, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and chondrocytes senescence.
Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF), a product from specific adipose tissue processing, contains mesenchymal stem cells, endothelial precursor cells, T regulatory cells, macrophages, smooth muscle cells, pericytes and preadipocytes. SVF extraction and injection techniques have been recently used as an alternative to harvest AD-MSC due to its logistic simplicity and feasibility in clinical practice.
SVF injections produce a clinically significant effect on the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and a possible improvement in cartilage quality.
This clinical trial aims to assess the clinical efficacy of SVF as adjuvant therapy to PRP on functionality and tissue regeneration on osteoarthritis.

Follow-up and outcome assessment will be identical for both arms.
Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
SVF (Stromal vascular fraction)
Patients will receive a venepuncture to obtain PRP, and a lipoaspirate to obtain SVF. Then an ultrasonographic guided PRP+SVF injection will be performed.
Patients will consecutively receive two monthly PRP injections.
Stromal Vascular Fraction infiltration
Procedure to prepare SVF: In the operations room and after aseptic technic, local anesthesia is applied in the liposuction incision site with lidocaine 1% without epinephrine subcutaneously. 60 ml of tumescent solution are injected. After 15-20 minutes waiting, 15 ml of lipoaspiration per side are recollected into a double syringe. This is centrifuged for 4 minutes at 2.500 rpm and the remaining fat is separated from the other fractions. Two 1.4 mm GEMS syringes are attached together, and fat is transferred at least 30 times from one syringe to the other. Syringe content is again centrifugated for 4 minutes. The oil is discarded and approximately 1.5ml SVF fraction remains.
PRP (Platelet-rich plasma)
Patients will receive a venepuncture to obtain PRP, and a sham lipoaspirate. Then an ultrasonographic guided PRP injection will be performed.
Patients will consecutively receive two monthly PRP injections.
Plattelet Rich Plasma infiltration
Procedure to prepare PRP: 15 cm of peripheral blood obtained by venipuncture are centrifugated at 1500 RPM during 5 minutes. Using PRP Arthrex kit platelets poor plasma is discarded and 1-3 mm of PRP are ready to be injected
