Official title A Phase III Study of CLS2901C in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06549686
What this study is testing
What is CLS2901C (human [allogeneic] chondrocyte sheets)?
CLS2901C (human [allogeneic] chondrocyte sheets) is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee.
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
- To evaluate the efficacy and safety of CLS2901C human allogenic chondrocyte sheets used in the osteotomy + RMSC group compared to in the osteotomy alone group of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee (OAK).
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
