UPCOMING EDITIONS:

Clinical Trial Symposium
Moderators, Dr. Virginia Kraus and Dr. Morten Karsdal
Optimal clinical trials design is needed to bring new treatments to patients. OARSI aims to be the place to go for clinical research and pharma-academia interactions for shaping the future of OA research, and advancing clinical trials design. To facilitate these discussions, and information sharing, OARSI will host a clinical trial symposium, consisting of 6-8 to the point lectures followed by in depth discussions.
Clinical Science in OA, Jeymi Tambiah, MB, ChB
- How does clinical study design look today and tomorrow in OA? How did we change after the new FDA draft guidelines? Reflection from a sponsor interactions with the agencies
- Do we need TKR? & how do PROs fit into modern clinical development?
- How can we enrich and standardize for TKR? And should we?
- The relationship between structure and symptoms: Concordance or discordance?
- Implication for approvals of novel treatment for OA – Symptoms or structure or both?
How to reduce the placebo effect in clinical studies, Nathaniel Katz, MD, MS
- What drives the placebo response in clinical trials?
- What have people tried to do about it, and what is the evidence for or against effectiveness of various approaches?
- Does anything predict who will respond to placebo? (Hint: yes)
- Can we measure how accurately patients report subjective symptoms?
- Do patients differ in how accurately they report pain?
- Does training to improve accuracy of symptom reporting work?
- Why is it that the same people who can’t report their symptoms accurately also have a high placebo response?
- Given all the above, what should we be doing in our clinical trials?
Update on OA clinical studies in later stages of development, Timothy McAlindon, MD, MPH
- ADAMTS-5 – where are we today? (Servier/Galapagos)
- FGF-18 – does more cartilage translate into clinical efficacy? (Merck)
- Wnt signaling in OA – today and tomorrow. (Samumed)
- Anti-NGF – What is the optimal patient population and future use? (Lilly/Pfizer)
- Invossa – stem cell therapy in OA. (Tissuegene)
- New-commers and news from drug development.
