A Phase 4 interventional study of DBX Putty and Mosaicplasty in Osteochondritis Dissecans, sponsored by Synthes GmbH. Withdrawn at 1 site in Finland. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2012-06-26.
Sponsored by Synthes GmbH (part of Johnson & Johnson) · Phase 4, Interventional, and Treatment
This is a 1:1 randomised pilot study in 30 patients in 1 site in Helsinki, Finland.
The investigators hypothesize that function, pain, type and quality of cartilage in adult patients with osteochondritis dissecans of the knee will be better in the DBX group compared to the mosaicplasty group.
30 studies on the registry are indexed under Osteochondritis Dissecans; 7 are open to participants now.

Females of childbearing potential must be willing to use effective means of for at least 1 year post surgery. Medically acceptable contraceptives include:
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
