About this study

Official title: Effect of Colchicine on Range of Motion After Manipulation Under Anesthesia for the Stiff Total Knee Replacement: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

The specific aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of oral colchicine in primary TKA patients at 3 months following a manipulation under anesthesia.

Read the detailed description

Adult primary unilateral TKA patients with less than 90° of knee flexion between 5 and 12 weeks after their index surgery will be screened for trial eligibility based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria above. Only patients from the protocol surgeons will be eligible to participate in this trial. MUA will be performed prior to 12 weeks after the index TKA. Patients will be randomized to either oral colchicine 0.6 mg twice daily for 6 weeks (treatment arm) or to oral placebo twice daily for 6 weeks in the placebo arm. All patients will follow a standardized post-MUA physical therapy protocol. Data will be collected prospectively, including study data collection sheets and medication diary. Other data sources will include office and inpatient medical records, operative reports, physical therapy records, hospital picture archiving and communication system (PACS) and radiology records. Outcomes will be collected at MUA, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Colchicine in people with Manipulation Under Anesthesia, run by Hospital for Special Surgery, New York at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Range of Motion (time frame: Change from baseline to 3 months post-operative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Jul 2020.
