SVF Therapy for Human Knee Osteoarthritis

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Knee Osteoarthritis
Interventions
Procedure: SVF treatment
Registration Number
NCT05019378
Lead Sponsor
Zhongnan Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to asses the safety and efficacy of SVF for treatment of knee osteoarthritis, and establish a novel method to provide 3D MRI imaging for human knee cartilage to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate cartilage regeneration.

Detailed Description

Study participants voluntarily provided written informed consent to participate in the study. The two knees of each patient were randomly assigned to autologous SVF treatment group or non-treatment control group. The patients were evaluated every 4 weeks for safety and efficacy of autologous SVF therapy for 24 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Radiologic evaluation of knee articular cartilage ThicknessChange from Baseline articular cartilage Thickness at 24 weeks

The Thickness (millimeter) of knee articular cartilage are measured.

Radiologic evaluation of knee articular cartilage VolumeChange from Baseline articular cartilage Volume at 24 weeks

The Volume (cubic millimeter) of knee articular cartilage are measured.

Knee pain evaluation and functional evaluation (The Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale)Change from Baseline Lysholm Knee Scale score at 12 weeks.

The Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale questionnaire has been designed to evaluate how patients' knee pain has affected their ability to manage everyday life. The values ranging from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum) and the higher scores mean a better outcome.

Radiologic evaluation of knee articular cartilage AreaChange from Baseline articular cartilage Area at 24 weeks

The Area (square millimeter) of knee articular cartilage are measured.

Knee pain evaluation and functional evaluation (the Western Ontario and McMaster University arthritis index [WOMAC])Change from Baseline WOMAC arthritis index score at 24 weeks.

Knee pain and functional mobility were assessed using WOMAC arthritis index patient questionnaire including 24 parameters for pain, stiffness and physical function. The values ranging from 0 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) and the lower scores mean a better outcome.

Knee pain evaluation and functional evaluation (The Lysholm Knee Scale)Change from Baseline Lysholm Knee Scale score at 24 weeks.

The Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale questionnaire has been designed to evaluate how patients' knee pain has affected their ability to manage everyday life. The values ranging from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum) and the higher scores mean a better outcome.
