Clinical trials

This study evaluates the effect of two different doses of a consumer-grade product, MyCondro™, on individuals experiencing mobility issues related to knee osteoarthritis. The primary goal is to measure improvements in overall joint health and mobility by tracking changes in participants' total WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) scores from the beginning to the end of the trial. Additionally, the study aims to assess secondary outcomes, including the product's impact on pain, stiffness, knee function, patient-reported improvement, inflammatory blood markers (CRP), and daily physical activity.

The study evaluates the effect of chondroitin sulfate derived from fermentation (MyCondro™) and bovine chondroitin sulfate, on the health and function of the skeletal system ex vivo, including cartilage, joint capsule, and bone tissue. The primary aim of the study is to determine the influence of human sera enriched with metabolites resulting from the ingestion of the ingredients on the metabolism of human primary cells of cartilage (chondrocytes), joint capsule (synoviocytes) and bone tissue (osteoblasts). Furthermore, the absorption kinetics of MyCondro™ and Bovine CS will be described.
