March 1, 2021 updated by: Richard Meehan, National Jewish Health

Alterations in Knee Synovial Fluid Biomarkers and Volume Following Hymovis Injections Using a Pneumatic Assistive Compression Device and Ultrasound Guided Arthrocentesis: Correlation With Clinical Outcomes

This NJH Investigator Initiated Study funded by Fidia will prospectively perform 2 ultrasound (US) guided knee aspirations in patients with knee osteoarthritis using a pneumatic compressive device (KneeTap ™) at baseline and at 3 months following 2 Hymovis® injections. Synovial fluid catabolic and anabolic proteins will be compared to those values in the peripheral blood and correlated with clinical outcome measurements at 3 ,6 and 12 months compared to baseline values; WOMAC, SF 36, visual analog pain scale, 6 minute walking distance and SF volumes quantitated by US.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

50 Subjects between 21-80 years with a BMI < 40 with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis on x ray (KL grade II or III) will have a ultrasound guided arthrocentesis with an external pneumatic compression device (KneeTap) and if > 0.5 ml of synovial fluid is obtained they will received the first of 2 FDA approved Hymovis knee injections. A second ultrasound guided Hymovis intra-synovial space injection will be administered in one week with a repeat arthrocentesis in 3 months. Subjects will be compensated $ 50 for each of 4 of 5 study visits. Clinical outcome measures at study visits 1, 3 (3 months) 4 at (6 months) and 5 (12 months will include: VAS (Visual analog Global pain (1-10), SF -36 ,WOMAC questionnaires (Western Ontario and McMaster University Arthritis Index pain Scale), measured distance on 6 minute walking distance test and synovial fluid depth measured by ultrasound. The Synovial fluid biomarker panel will include values of over 45 separate cytokines,.chemokines and proteins from subjects pre vs post Hymovis injections and compared to values in the peripheral blood obtained simultaneously. SF biomarker analysis will be performed on cryopreserved samples using fluorescence multiplex bead based assays (Luminex) or by ELISA. All values as well as clinical outcome parameters will be entered into the REDCap system for statistical analysis

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
WOMAC scores (Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index)
Time Frame: Change from baselinescore values to those over 12 months
Self reported numeric values: on pain, stiffness and 17 items of limitations on physical function scored as 0-5 (none, mild, moderate, severe or extreme)
Change from baselinescore values to those over 12 months
SF 36 scores (Quality of Life Questionnaire)
Time Frame: Change from baseline score values to those over 12 months
Self reported numeric values based upon multiple domains; assessment of over all health, 0-4, (excellent , very good, good, fair and poor) and score compared to the prior year, 0-4, (much better, somewhat better, about the same, somewhat worse, much worse) and 10 functional daily living activity questions with score 0-2, (not at all limited, limited a little, and limited a lot) and 4 questions on patients health compared to others expectations or worsen or excellent health and if they more easily become sick 0-4, (false, mostly false, don't know, mostly true or definitely true. Higher scores indicate worse health and disability.
Change from baseline score values to those over 12 months
VAS (Visual analogue scale) score for self reported pain
Time Frame: Change from baseline score values to those over 12 months
Self Reported patient assessment of pain from 0 I(no pain) on the left to 10 worst pain ever. The paint selects their value on a continuous 10 cm line. A higher numeric number on a 0 -10 scale selected indicates more severe pain.
Change from baseline score values to those over 12 months
6 minute walking distance
Time Frame: Change in distance walked from baseline to that distance walked over 12 months
The measured distance in meters walked during a 6 minute supervised walk on level ground.
Change in distance walked from baseline to that distance walked over 12 months
Synovial fluid depth
Time Frame: Change in the depth of knee synovial fluid from baseline values to those at 12 months
Ultrasound measurement in millimeters of the maximum SF depth during external pneumatic compression.
Change in the depth of knee synovial fluid from baseline values to those at 12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Synovial fluid and peripheral blood biomarkers
Time Frame: Change in the baseline levels of biomarkers in pg/ml to the levels 3 months after the first of 2 Hymovis injections
54 separate cytokines ,chemokines and proteins which can impact cartilage health will be measured in the synovial fluid by ELISA and Luminex multiplex platforms on cryopreserved samples to determine the levels of these catabolic inflammatory or anabolic proteins which may impact cartilage health.
Change in the baseline levels of biomarkers in pg/ml to the levels 3 months after the first of 2 Hymovis injections
