Device: Autologous Protein Solution "APS(TM)"
Registration Number
NCT01773226
Lead Sponsor
Zimmer Biomet
Brief Summary

This prospective single-center study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of "APS(TM)" treated patients with OA of the knee who have failed conservative OA therapy. The study will also evaluate efficacy by assessing patient pain and functionality.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Adverse EventsUp to 6 months post-injection

Safety and tolerability will be assessed from AEs and injection-site reactions, physical examinations, knee examinations, vital signs, ECGs, and clinical laboratory tests (hematology, coagulation, blood chemistry, and urinalysis) evaluated at baseline (pre-injection) and post-injection up to 6 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Patients Using Rescue MedicationUp to 6 months post-injection

Explore the potential for an analgesic effect of a single dose of APS in patients with OA of the knee.

Pain ScoreBaseline, Week 1, Week 2, and at Months 1, 3, and 6.

The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index questionnaire using the Likert scale (WOMAC LK), Version 3.1 questionnaire has 24 items that the patient addresses about the knee: 5 items on the pain subscale, 2 on the stiffness subscale, and 17 on the physical function subscale. Each item was to be answered on a 5-point Likert scale, with grading from 0 (none or never) to 4 (extreme or always). The scores are summed for items in each subscale, with possible ranges as follows: pain=0-20, stiffness=0-8, physical function=0-68. A higher score indicates worse pain, stiffness, or functional limitation.

Stiffness ScoreBaseline, Week 1, Week 2, and at Months 1, 3, and 6.
