Dec 4, 2023

Key Takeaways

Patients with osteoarthritis can now access a new long-term relief option called Arthrosamid at the private MSK Doctors clinic in London.
Arthrosamid is administered through a single minimally invasive injection and may provide relief from pain and stiffness for up to several years.
This treatment uses a unique non-biodegradable hydrogel to provide lubrication and cushioning for the joint, differentiating it from traditional options.
Patients can go home immediately after the appointment with no mobility restrictions or additional medications.
While individual results may vary, research suggests that Arthrosamid provides fast relief from stiffness and pain that may last significantly longer than traditional options, up to or possibly beyond two years.

Since the 1970s researchers have been working to create a long-lasting treatment for osteoarthritis, and have often used biodegradable injections under the patient’s kneecap. This new treatment from MSK Doctors, known as Arthrosamid, uses a similar technique and an updated formula to provide lubrication and cushion the joint, using a unique non-biodegradable hydrogel.

This new treatment differs in several ways from the traditional options, though from the patient’s perspective, the operation is nearly identical. Each treatment consists of a single, minimally invasive injection, with temporary and minimal side effects such as redness, swelling, or itching at the injection site.

Patients are able to go home nearly immediately after their appointment with no mobility restrictions or additional medications. While individual results may vary, research suggests that this treatment provides fast relief from stiffness and pain that may last significantly longer than the traditional options, up to or possibly beyond two years.

Although Arthrosamid has been carefully researched and tested for decades, so far no clinical trial has run long enough to determine the maximum duration of the potential relief from a single injection. However, in the longest-running trials, patients reported still feeling relief from both pain and stiffness at approximately 2 years after the initial treatment.

While this treatment is not unique to MSK Doctors, it is one of the first private clinics in the UK to receive approval for Arthrosamid, and one of the few with experienced specialists. Prof. Paul Lee, the founder of MSK Doctors and the clinic’s Arthrosamid specialist, has also launched a brief report explaining the various options for osteoarthritis treatment.

When dealing with osteoarthritis, the report explains, a single approach is rarely effective in the long term. The MSK Doctors team takes a holistic approach and will work closely with each patient to find the right solution for their unique situation. This may include working with a physiotherapist, taking medications, or considering surgical options in some situations.

An excerpt from the report explains, “Living with osteoarthritis can be a significant challenge, but with the expertise of MSK doctors, effective management is entirely possible. Through accurate diagnosis, personalised treatment plans, and a holistic approach to care, MSK doctors can help you lead a more comfortable and active life.”
