研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the combined single-step approach with biomaterials and mesenchymal stem/stromal cells in the treatment of knee articular surface lesions. The clinical analysis of the treatment outcomes, regarding postoperative improvements and safety, is going to be accompanied with laboratory analysis of the intraoperatively applied cellular products.
The main hypothesis are: (1) such combined single-step procedure significantly improves patients' functioning and quality of life; (2) this therapeutic approach is safe; (3) cellular parameters of the applied filtered bone marrow aspirate (fBMA) impact treatment outcomes, among other potential predictors.
Researchers will compare subjective (questionnaire) and objective (clinical examination) status of patients before and after the operation, record any potential complications and perform regression analysis to assess the influence of potential predictors on postoperative improvements.

结局指标
主要结局
Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) subscale Pain postoperative improvement
时间窗: At least 24 months after the operation
Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) assesses patients' pain (9 items), other symptoms (7 items), function in daily living (17 items), function in sport and recreation (5 items), and knee related quality of life (4 items). Scores range from 0 to 100 with a score 0 being the worst score and 100 indicating no impairment. KOOS subscale Pain postoperative improvement will be calculated as difference between preoperative and postoperative scores at the final follow up. Paired Student t test will be applied to compare preoperative and postoperative values of KOOS subscale Pain.
次要结局
- Tegner Activity Scale (TAS) postoperative improvement(At least 24 months after the operation)
- Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) subscales postoperative improvements(At least 24 months after the operation)
- Complications (SAE and GF)(Recording until the final follow up (minimum 24 months after the operation))
- Potential predictors (patients' demographics, medical history, joint and lesions' characteristics, surgical and cellular parameters) of the clinical outcomes (KOOS subscales, EQ-5D-3L, EQ-VAS, TAS)(At the time of statistical analysis)
- Cellular parameters of intraoperatively applied filtered Bone Marrow Aspirate (fBMA)(Finsihed in 14 days after the procedure)
- European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions 3 Level (EQ-5D-3L) postoperative improvement(At least 24 months after the operation)
- EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-VAS) postoperative improvement(At least 24 months after the operation)
