To demonstrate the efficacy of the combined use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with lipoaspirate and/or bone marrow aspirate in osteoarthritis of major joints, and to compare the outcomes achieved using three combinations: PRP plus lipoaspirate, PRP plus bone marrow aspirate, and PRP plus both lipoaspirate and bone marrow aspirate.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of the combined use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with lipoaspirate and/or bone marrow aspirate in osteoarthritis of major joints, and to compare the outcomes achieved using three combinations: PRP plus lipoaspirate, PRP plus bone marrow aspirate, and PRP plus both lipoaspirate and bone marrow aspirate.
A total of 240 participants will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: Group A will receive PRP plus lipoaspirate, Group B will receive PRP plus bone marrow aspirate, and Group C will receive tri-partite therapy of PRP + lipoaspirate + bone marrow aspirate which allows for 80 in each group. The combination of biologic materials will be injected in to an arthritic joint.

| Changes from baseline through to end of study for the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). | Visual analogue scales (VAS) are psychometric measuring instruments designed to document the characteristics of disease-related symptom severity in individual patients and use this to achieve a rapid (statistically measurable and reproducible) classification of symptom severity. This scale measures ranges from 0 whereby the patient has no discomfort or distress to 10 where the patient has agonizing pain and is in unbearable distress. (0 - None, 1, 2 - Annoying, 3, 4 - Uncomfortable, 5, 6 - Dreadful, 7, 8 - Horrible, 9, 10 - Agonizing). The patient can place an x anywhere on the continuum between 0-10 based on their level of discomfort . We will then measure the scale using a ruler to the tenth of a point. The VAS scale will be completed at each visits 2-7. Comparisons will be made from baseline to end of study to determine the overall improvement. | The VAS will be measured at baseline (week 1) through to the end of the study (week 104). To test for improvement, comparisons to baseline will be made at 6 months (week 26,) 12 months (week 52) and 24 months (week 104). |
| Changes from baseline through to the end of study for the Short Form 12 item version 2 (SF12-v2) | The SF-12 is a validated and widely used twelve question health survey used to assess health related quality of life from the patients perspective. The SF12-v2 items are scored so that a higher score means a better health. For example, the functioning items are scored so that a higher score represents better functioning, whereby pain items scored so that a high score indicates freedom from pain. The SF12-v2 will be completed at each visits 2-7. Comparisons will be made from baseline to end of study to determine the overall improvement. | The SF12-v2 will be measured at baseline (week 1) through to the end of the study (week 104). To test for improvement, comparisons to baseline will be made at 6 months (week 26,) 12 months (week 52) and 24 months (week 104). |

| Comparison to evaluate the degree of change among treatment arms (Group A, Group B and Group C) from baseline visit through to end of study. | To evaluate the variations among the three treatment arms (lipoapirate [group A], bone marrow aspirate [group B], and lipoasiprate and bone marrow aspirate [group c] we will use the overall average of the VAS for each group. It is the investigator's hypothesis that we anticipate that group c might have a superior outcome to either group A or group B. |
