Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with a musculoskeletal condition amenable to BMAC or PRP treatment will be enrolled upon registration for the selected procedure. Proper counseling regarding the selected procedure and alternatives will be done prior to enrollment. Patients with contraindications for the procedure will not undergo the procedure and therefore will not be enrolled. The study will be non-randomized; therefore, patient selection will be based upon patient request for the procedure after proper counseling. Counseling regarding cost of each procedure will also be provided. All costs for the procedure will be the responsibility of the patient. Proper documentation will also be signed by the patient indicating that procedure is elective and PRP/BMAC injections will not be billed to their insurance carriers. Upon enrollment, patients will be consented for the procedure and longitudinal data collection.

Who may be able to join

  • Musculoskeletal Condition that is able to undergo an injection
  • Patient requests the procedure and enrolls with agreement to pay for the procedure

Who cannot join

  • Active Cancer
  • Allergies to local anesthesia

About this study

The use of Bone Marrow Autologous Collection (BMAC) in musculoskeletal conditions including osteoarthritis and tendon injuries has been growing. Outcome evidence continues to be sparse. The purpose of this study is collect a longitudinal case series of patient reported outcomes following BMAC injections for musculoskeletal conditions including osteoarthritis, tendinopathy and injuries to ligaments, tendons and muscles.

Being tested
Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate Injection
Medical subject headings
Musculoskeletal Pain, Osteoarthritis, Tendinopathy, Sprains and Strains

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate InjectionProcedure or surgery

    BMAC will be collected in the outpatient setting with local anesthesia. The collection site will be the Posterior Superior Iliac Spine (PSIS). This will be visualized under ultrasound prior to collection. Local anesthesia with 1% lidocaine will be performed prior to the harvest. BMAC harvest will be performed using the Arthrex Angel BMAC System using the Arthrex collection protocol. The Arthrex Angel machine will be used to separate BMAC contents for injection based on Arthrex collection protocol. Machine settings, volume of collection and volume of output have not been standardized and will be based upon harvest and the condition treated. These will be variables recorded for consideration of optimal settings based on the patient-reported outcomes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Musculoskeletal Pain and Osteoarthritis, run by Rush University Medical Center 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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2021. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

WOMAC Score (time frame: 5 years). 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 27 May 2021.
