Abstract:
:This paper reviews, in a first part, methods used for the clinical assessment of osteoarthritis (OA) with special reference, in a second part, to trials of drugs claimed to be chondromodulating agents. The agents examined include glycosaminoglycan-peptide complex (GP-C, Rumalon) and glycosaminoglycan-polysulfate (GAGPS, Arteparon), which both showed some beneficial clinical response. However, their effect on cartilage still remains controversial. The development of a functional hip and knee OA index in clinical assessment and the role of imaging methods and biochemical markers are discussed. In future clinical trials only validated OA indices such as the Lequesne or WOMAC index and the newly established ILAR guidelines for classifying and testing drugs in OA will be accepted for registration purposes. Imaging methods including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offer the capacity to provide more precise information concerning cartilage destruction in OA joints. In addition, the biochemical assessment of proteoglycan fragments, bone sialoprotein (BSP), cartilage oligometric matrix protein (COMP) and the balance between stromelysin and its inhibitor (TIMP) in synovial fluid would appear to offer potential applications for the determination of joint tissue damage in the early and later stages of OA. However, these biochemical markers have yet to be validated. It is clear that in the 1990s, for a drug to be designated as disease modifying in OA, it will require a more rigorous evaluation than was hitherto required.
