NCT06032442

Brief Summary

The goal of the interventional study is to assess the effectiveness of the supporting properties and safety of the dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®), capsules with an average weight of 585 mg, in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint of both sexes aged 40 to 75 years. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. 1.To evaluate the effectiveness of the supporting properties of dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®) in patients with knee osteoarthritis in comparison with active control;
  2. 2.To evaluate the safety of the dietary supplement ARTNEO (ARTNEO®) in patients with knee osteoarthritis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in the mean of the total score on The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scale

    Change in total WOMAC score at Visit 9 (day 180 ± 4) from baseline at Visit 2 (day 1)

    Baseline to month 6

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Change in mean WOMAC total score (baseline to day 7, months 1 and 3)

    Baseline to day 7, months 1 and 3

  • Change in the mean on the subscales of the WOMAC (scales of pain, stiffness, functional insufficiency)

    Baseline to day 7, months 1, 3, 6

  • Change in the mean score on the Lequesne scale

    Baseline to day 7, months 1, 3, 6

  • Evaluation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signs of damage to the target joint

    Baseline to month 6

  • Change in mean 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS) in the target knee joint

    Baseline to day 7, months 1, 2, 3, 6

  • +6 more secondary outcomes
