Chondromodulating Effect of Diacerein in Osteoarthritis of the Hip (ECHODIAH)

July 24, 2008 updated by: Laboratoires NEGMA

Evaluation of the CHOndromodulating Effect of DIAcerein in Osteoarthritis of the Hip. ECHODIAH.

We carried out a 3 years, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial in patients with hip osteoarthritis in order to:

  • evaluate the ability of diacerein, an interleukin-1β inhibitor, to slow the progressive decrease in joint space width observed in patients with hip osteoarthritis
  • to investigate the potential structure-modifying effect of diacerein in patients with hip osteoarthritis

This study compare also after ten years the percentage of patients in each treatment group who require a hip replacement surgery
