Summary

This trial will test a new treatment for osteoarthritis pain that involves injecting fat cells into the knee joint.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 35-85 with knee osteoarthritis who've tried at least two treatments without success, including physical therapy or injections. They must not have had recent major knee injuries, surgery, or certain other joint conditions. Participants need to understand English, be able to attend follow-up visits, and have a BMI between 22 and 37.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of a single injection using autologous adipose-derived SVF produced by the GID SVF-2 device system in reducing pain and improving function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not explicitly listed but may include typical risks associated with injections such as pain at the injection site, infection risk, allergic reactions to components like lidocaine or epinephrine used during the procedure.

Other Research
Regenerative therapies for osteoarthritis, such as autologous adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) injections and platelet-rich plasma (PRP), work by utilizing the body's own cells to promote healing and reduce inflammation. SVF contains a mixture of cells, including mesenchymal stem cells, which can differentiate into various cell types and release anti-inflammatory cytokines, aiding in tissue repair and reducing joint inflammation. PRP, derived from the patient's blood, is rich in growth factors that stimulate cell proliferation and tissue regeneration while also modulating the inflammatory response. These mechanisms are crucial for osteoarthritis patients as they offer potential relief from pain and improved joint function by addressing the underlying causes of tissue degeneration and inflammation.
