Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The specific aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of oral colchicine in primary TKA patients at 3 months following a manipulation under anesthesia.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Adult primary unilateral TKA patients with less than 90° of knee flexion between 5 and 12 weeks after their index surgery will be screened for trial eligibility based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria above. Only patients from the protocol surgeons will be eligible to participate in this trial. MUA will be performed prior to 12 weeks after the index TKA. Patients will be randomized to either oral colchicine 0.6 mg twice daily for 6 weeks (treatment arm) or to oral placebo twice daily for 6 weeks in the placebo arm. All patients will follow a standardized post-MUA physical therapy protocol. Data will be collected prospectively, including study data collection sheets and medication diary. Other data sources will include office and inpatient medical records, operative reports, physical therapy records, hospital picture archiving and communication system (PACS) and radiology records. Outcomes will be collected at MUA, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 1 year.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Colchicine

Manipulation under Anesthesia (MUA) will be performed prior to 12 weeks after the index TKA. Patients will be randomized to oral colchicine 0.6 mg twice daily for 6 weeks. All patients will follow a standardized post-MUA physical therapy protocol.

Drug: Colchicine
Colchicine is an anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory drug
Other Names:
  • Colcrys
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo

    Manipulation under Anesthesia (MUA) will be performed prior to 12 weeks after the index TKA. Patients will be randomized to oral placebo twice daily for 6 weeks. All patients will follow a standardized post-MUA physical therapy protocol.

    Other: Placebo
