Safety and Efficacy Study of HYTOP® in the Treatment of Focal Chondral Defects.
Safety and Efficacy of a Novel, Cell-free Cartilage Repair Construct in the Treatment of Focal Chondral Defects Involving the Femoro-tibial Compartment of the Knee Joint.
The two-layer bioresorbable HYTOP® matrix consists of an upper layer of highly purified porcine splint-skin which contains natural pores, and a lower layer of highly purified collagen fleece containing hyaluronan (HA).
In this study, the medical device will be used and evaluated in a one-step procedure combining microfracturing with surgical implantation of HYTOP®. HYTOP® will support haemostasis in the articular cartilage defect, act as a support for cell growth and as a three-dimensional scaffold for cell differentiation. HYTOP® will protect the underlying tissue after cartilage debridement and/or microfracturing of the subchondral bone.
The primary working hypothesis is that HYTOP® is safe and suitable as a cell-free matrix to support haemostasis, as a cover for the cartilage lesion and eventually to enhance cartilage regeneration in a one-step surgical procedure.

Knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS)
Time Frame: Baseline
|
The KOOS score consists of five separate scores calculated for pain, symptoms, activities of daily living, sport and recreational function and knee-related quality of life.
Standardized answer options are given (5 Likert boxes) and each question gets a score from 0 to 4. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms) is calculated for each subscale.
The results can be plotted as an outcome profile.
