La sperimentazione clinica NCT07255248 è uno studio interventistico per Hoffa's Fat Pad Impingement, attualmente non ancora in arruolamento. L'arruolamento dovrebbe iniziare il 17 novembre 2025, con l'obiettivo di raggiungere 62 partecipanti. Sotto la guida di Boston Children's Hospital, dovrebbe concludersi entro il 2 gennaio 2028. I dati più recenti da ClinicalTrials.gov sono stati aggiornati l'ultima volta il 28 novembre 2025.
Sommario breve
The aim of our study is to investigate treatment outcomes for refractory anterior knee pain due to Hoffa's Fat Pad Impingement (HFPI) in young female athletes. Specifically, we will study pediatric female athletes with HFPI, and treatment outcomes of US-guided Hoffa's Fat Pad (HFP) corticosteroid injection compared to standard care (physical therapy, bracing, no injection) and saline injection. There will be two arms in this study, 1, a corticosteroid injection and physical therapy and 2, physical therapy and a saline injection. The intent of this study is to measure treatment outcomes, and we are not looking at the safety and effectiveness of the lidocaine-methylprednisolone mixture.

Comparatore placeboControl Group: Saline Injection
If you are randomized to the control group, you will receive a saline injection to the hoffa's fat pad at your visit. Saline injections are safe for the intended use of being a placebo injection. After your injection, you will be required to continue with physical therapy. You will be sent patient reported outcomes including quality of life, pain interference, symptoms and function, and level of activity at 4 weeks and 8 weeks following your injection.
Saline Injection (Octreotide LAR Placebo)
If you are randomized to the control group, you will receive a saline injection to the hoffa's fat pad at your visit. Saline injections are safe for the intended use of being a placebo injection. After your injection, you will be required to continue with physical therapy. You will be sent patient reported outcomes including quality of life, pain interference, symptoms and function, and level of activity at 4 weeks and 8 weeks following your injection.
Comparatore attivoIntervention Group: Corticosteroid Injection
If you are randomized to the intervention group, you will receive an ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection to the hoffa's fat pad at your visit. Ultrasound guided corticosteroids injections are a common and approved procedure for this condition done at Boston Children's Hospital in the sports medicine clinic. You will be sent patient reported outcomes including quality of life, pain interference, symptoms and function, and level of activity at 4 weeks and 8 weeks following your injection.
Methylprednisolone Acetate and Lidocaine
If you are randomized to the intervention group, you will receive an ultrasound guided corticosteroid injection to the hoffa's fat pad at your visit. Ultrasound guided corticosteroids injections are a common and approved procedure for this condition done at Boston Children's Hospital in the sports medicine clinic. You will be sent patient reported outcomes including quality of life, pain interference, symptoms and function, and level of activity at 4 weeks and 8 weeks following your injection.
Esito primario
Misure di esitoDescrizione della misuraArco temporale
International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC Score)
The IKDC is a patient-reported outcome measure on a 0-100 scale assessing knee function, symptoms, and sports activities, with higher scores indicating better function.
From enrollment to 8 weeks after enrollment
Esito secondario
Misure di esitoDescrizione della misuraArco temporale
Peds Quality of Life Score (Peds-QL)
The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) is a brief measure of health-related quality of life in children and young people. Scoring involves transforming a 0-4 Likert scale (0=never, 4=almost always) into a 0-100 scale by reverse scoring and linear transformation, where higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life (HRQL).
From enrollment to 8 weeks after enrollment
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference Short Form (PISF)
The PISF is designed to measure the extent to which pain interferes with a person's: Work or household chores, Social activities, Enjoyment of life, and Physical activities. Each question has five response options ranging in value from one to five. To find the total raw score for a short form with all questions answered, sum the values of the response to each question.
From enrollment to 8 weeks after enrollment
Level of Activity per week
Patients will report hours of activity per week during the study
From enrollment to 8 weeks after enrollment
Self-report pain flare post injection
Patients will self-report any pain flares that occur 4 weeks after receiving the injection
4 weeks post injection
