Summary

This study is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled with 3 parallel-groups and multicenter trial in patients suffering from knee OA (osteoarthrosis).

A first exploratory non comparative study (TILFLEXY002, NCT01909037, Henrotin et al., 2014 BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine) evaluated the efficacy of FLEXOFYTOL® at the dose of 2x3 caps/day, during a 3-month period, in 22 patients suffering from knee OA, on the serum levels of cartilage-specific and inflammatory biomarkers, on the evaluation of pain and on the global patient assessment of disease activity.

This study demonstrated a statistically significant decrease of sColl2-1 cartilage specific biomarker, an early decrease of the ultrasensitive C-reactive protein (CRP), an improvement of the global assessment of the disease by the patient as well as a good tolerance and compliance for the treatment. Results of this exploratory study are encouraging and justify the setup of a randomized, placebo-controlled double blind and dose-ranging trial.
