Joint Osteoarthritis

This post-market clinical investigation is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TrHCROSS®, a CE-marked cross-linked hyaluronic acid viscosupplement, in patients with mild to moderate osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, or shoulder who have experienced an inadequate response to conservative treatments and standard analgesic therapy. The study is a prospective, randomized, single-blind, active-controlled, non-inferiority trial enrolling 150 participants, who will receive a single intra-articular injection of either TrHCROSS® or a reference viscosupplement and will be followed for 12 months. The primary effectiveness endpoint is pain reduction at 24 weeks, while safety will be assessed through the incidence of treatment-related serious adverse events. Secondary and exploratory assessments will evaluate changes in pain, joint function, mobility, quality of life, patient satisfaction, investigator global assessment, rescue medication use, and the occurrence of adverse events over 52 weeks. Outcomes will be measured using validated, joint-specific instruments, including WOMAC and KOOS for knee osteoarthritis, WOMAC and HOOS for hip osteoarthritis, and SPADI and WOSI for shoulder osteoarthritis. The results of this investigation are intended to generate post-market clinical evidence supporting the safety and clinical performance of TrHCROSS® across different joint indications and to further characterize its benefit-risk profile in routine clinical practice.

Chronic illness is a public health issue and mobility loss is frequent in this population. Among its' multiple physical and psychological consequences, increased mortality and cardiovascular morbidity seem the main concern. Therefore, the exploration of locomotor deficiencies, physical capacities and metabolism of patients with chronic illnesses constitutes a major challenge both for the treatment of causal pathologies, as well as for evaluating the impact of therapeutic interventions, the benefit of which will be an improvement in physical capacities and ultimately mobility. In view of the hypothesis of an increase in the prevalence of mobility disorders in this population, this approach is part of a logic of screening and improving the effectiveness of the care of these patients with a multidisciplinary evaluation of individual risks. The EVALMOB protocol was designed in order to try to determine a standard profile of "dysmobility" in patients with chronic illness
