Overview

Brief Summary

This is a 1:1 randomised pilot study in 30 patients in 1 site in Helsinki, Finland.

The investigators hypothesize that function, pain, type and quality of cartilage in adult patients with osteochondritis dissecans of the knee will be better in the DBX group compared to the mosaicplasty group.

  • Surgical sterilisation
  • Approved hormonal contraceptives
  • Barriers methods combined with a spermicide
  • An intrauterine device
  • Abstinence alone is not considered an acceptable method of contraception
  • Late stage Osteochondritis Dissecans (ICD-10 code M93.2) of the knee classified as stage III or IV (Anderson MRI classification)
  • Mature skeleton

Exclusion Criteria

  • More than 1 knee affected
  • Patients who can be treated with conservative treatment alone, unless there is evidence of at least 6 months failed previous treatment
  • Systemic disease including AIDS, HIV, Hepatitis or any other disease that would prevent normal organ and marrow function.
  • Patients undergoing systemic cortisone treatment or immunosuppressive therapy (e.g. avascular necrosis)
  • Patients undergoing active cancer therapy (chemotherapy, radiation treatment).

  • Participation in any other device or drug trial within 3 months prior to the inclusion in the study
  • Presence of at least one contraindication for DBX® Putty

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change of Brittberg-Peterson functional assessment score from baseline until 12 months post-op

Time Frame: At enrollment (day -7), at full weight-bearing (6-8 weeks post-operative), 6 months post-operative, 12 months post-operative

Score 0-130 (see Clin Orthop Relat Res 2000 May;374:212-34) to assess function and pain

Secondary Outcomes

  • Number of patients with complications to assess the safety of the use of the treatment(Enrolment (day -7) until 12 months post-operative)
  • Type and quality of the formed cartilage to assess the effectiveness of the treatment(12 months post-operative)
