NCT02697682

Brief Summary

To investigate the feasibility and short term safety issues of treatment of knee osteoarthritis with intra-articular injection with the stromal vascular fraction of abdominal adipose tissue (SVF) harvested and prepared using the Lipogems System. Hereby we wish to pave the road for a high quality randomized controlled trial investigating effectiveness of treatment of knee osteoarthritis with SVF looking at patient reported outcome, function, homeostasis of the joint and cartilage regeneration.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse events

    An adverse event is defined as any event caused by the treatment leading to a less preferable situation for the patient. Patients will be screened for: Donor site morbidity: (Infection, swelling, pain). Implant site morbidity: (Infection, swelling, pain (increased VAS score))

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score

    3+12 months

  • Numeric Rating Scale for Assessment of Pain Intensity

    3+12 months

Study Arms (1)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

All patients are recieving the treatment.

Biological: injection with the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of adipose tissue

Interventions

Description of the active treatment The active treatment is an intra-articular injection with the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) harvested from the patient's own abdominal subcutaneous fatty tissue. SVF is harvested using the Lipogems system.
