Study Summary

This trial will test if a new treatment using patient's own cells can safely relieve hip arthritis pain and inflammation. Follow-up will include 4,000 patients.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults aged 18-90 with hip pain from osteoarthritis lasting over 6 months, who have good heart, lung, kidney function and blood coagulation. They must not be dependent on alcohol or drugs, have had certain cancers in the last 5 years, recent steroid injections at the site, or use strong opioids or NSAIDs shortly before treatment.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests a cell therapy combining StroMed and PRP to treat hip osteoarthritis pain and inflammation. It's an open-label trial starting with 50 patients to assess safety and effectiveness before expanding to follow up with a larger group of 4,000 patients.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

While specific side effects are not listed here, autologous cell therapies like this one may cause injection site reactions such as pain or swelling, risk of infection due to immune system involvement and potential adverse reactions related to individual patient conditions.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.

Primary outcome measures

Change is being assessed for the HOOS survey (Hip Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores)

Secondary outcome measures

Change is being assessed by MRI of afflicted joint

Change is being assessed for the NRS survey (Numerical Rating Scale for Pain)

Change is being assessed for the SF36 survey (Short Form Quality of Life Survey)

Experimental Treatment

Group I: StroMed + Platelet Rich plasma [PRP]Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Because no enzymes or drugs are added with this mechanical process, the resulting (StroMed) cell concentrate still contains the extra-cellular matrix. In addition, the cells have not been altered by manipulation with enzymes or culturing. This autologous, cell concentrate is of minimal risk to the patient with no artificial ingredients added. Additional treatments with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) processed by the RegenLab (RegenKit BCT-3) PRP product by direct injection to affected joints.
