NCT03117608

Brief Summary

The study proposes to compare performances and safety of intra-articular injections of aMAT with those of a control group (PRP injections) for the treatment of symptomatic OA of the knee. The end-points will be determined evaluating the performances of the treatment group in terms of improvement of the symptomatology, functional recovery and radiological appearance.
