Official title
A Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Intra-articular, Autologous Adipose Tissue Injections for the Treatment of Mild-to-Moderate Osteoarthritis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
A new generation of "minimally manipulated" regenerative treatments are being offered at clinics across the country, but there is no strong efficacy data to support their use. The purpose of this study is to estimate the effect size of the treatment by comparing the efficacy of autologous fat to the current standard of care treatment, hyaluronic acid (HA). As a secondary aim, we will test for preliminary evidence of efficacy of autologous fat vs. HA and determine how these treatments effect the biochemical environment of the knee by comparing pre-injection and post-injection synovial fluid biomarker profiles.
