New treatment option for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Official title Concentrated Bone Marrow Aspirate in Revision ACL Reconstruction
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06311513
What this study is testing
What is Concentrated Bone Marrow Aspirate Injection?
Concentrated Bone Marrow Aspirate Injection is an investigational medicine, given as an injectable medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
Also referred to as cBMA, BMAC.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The goal of this pilot randomized clinical trial is to look into the efficacy of concentrated bone marrow aspirate (cBMA) in improving post traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) symptoms in patients undergoing revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are whether clinical outcomes, such as pain, are improved in patients who get cBMA with surgery, if there is a change in circulating markers of inflammation and what part of the cellular and molecular composition of cBMA may explain its effects.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
