Brief summary in lay language

The influence of a cell-free autologous conditioned serum (ACS) will be investigated on the processes of osteoarthritis of the knee. Autolog conditioned serum is a special serum which is obtained from the own blood of the respective patient. This serum contains a significantly higher concentration of anti-inflammatory substances and various growth factors, as conventional, obtained from whole blood serum.

Brief summary in scientific language

In this study safety and effectiveness of cell-free autologous conditioned serum (ACS) will be investigated in daily routine in a wide population (1000 patients) with knee osteoarthritis (OA) (Kellgren-Lawrence Grades II–IV). Safety and effectiveness of cell-free ACS will be investigated over 3 years.

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
With the medical device EOT®II, using a special process the investigator prepares cell-free autologous conditioned serum which will be injected intra-articular in knee joint four to six times within two weeks.

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Intraindividual comparison of the pain sub scale of the "Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score" (KOOS) between week 0 and 48 weeks.
Secondary outcome:
1) Intraindividual comparison of the "Numeric Rating Scale" (NRS) between week 0 and 48 weeks. 2) Intraindividual comparison of the sub-scales of the "Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score" (KOOS) between week 0 and 48 weeks. 3) Intraindividual comparison of the "EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire15" (EQ-5D) between week 0 and 48 weeks. 4) Intraindividual comparison of the "Work Productivity and Activity Impairment" (WPAI) between week 0 and 48 weeks.
