This will be a multi-center, prospective, single-blinded randomized clinical trial to investigate the effectiveness of using cooled radiofrequency ablation (CRFA) for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) hip pain and function in subjects treated with CRFA compared with standard of care intra-articular steroid injections
This prospective, single-blinded randomized clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of using cooled radiofrequency ablation (CRFA) for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) hip pain and function compared with standard of care intra-articular steroid injections. This study also aims to determine if CRFA is more effective at decreasing hip pain from OA after treatment and improving hip function in terms of range of motion and walking mobility when compared to corticosteroid hip injections. The primary outcome of interest is a decrease in visual analog scale (VAS) pain as reported following treatment with either a hip injection or following RFA treatment for patients who are not candidates for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Secondary objectives include physical performance at each follow-up time point including range of motion and 50 ft walk test, Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) and PROMIS questionnaires at each follow-up time point, patient satisfaction at 24 weeks after treatment, and the number of subjects requesting additional treatment for hip pain during the follow-up period.
The assessments will be conducted by comparing patients with pain from hip OA who get CRFA treatment versus patients who get a hip corticosteroid injection. The research hypothesis is that CRFA will lead to a greater reduction in pain up to 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment compared to a hip corticosteroid injection. This may result in patients having greater relief of their hip pain which may improve joint function and quality of life with the availability of a new alternative to treat hip OA.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intra-articular corticosteroid injections | Active Comparator | The hip and groin areas will be prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion with ChloraPrep. Preprocedural vital signs will be performed and will be in the nursing chart for review. Radiology guidance will be used to guide needle placement within the affected hip to administer lidocaine and a corticosteroid intra-articularly. |
|
| Cooled radiofrequency ablation | Active Comparator | The hip and groin areas will be prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion with ChloraPrep. Preprocedural vital signs will be performed and will be in the nursing chart for review. The HALYARD* COOLIEF* SINERGY* Cooled Radiofrequency Probe (sterile, single use) is inserted through a COOLIEF* SINERGY* Introducer used with fluoroscopy guidance in the AP view to visualize the hip joint and sensory nerve areas over the acetabulum (femoral) and ischium (obturator) where the cooled radiofrequency ablation will be applied to create a focal thermal lesion to encompass and denervate the targeted nerves. |

| Cooled RFA treatment with COOLIEF* device | Procedure | Patients who are randomized to receive CRFA will be given the treatment by a specialist into the affected hip with OA, and the patient will be followed to determine amount of pain relief and improved hip joint function. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in visual analog scale (VAS) pain by 1.5 points | VAS Pain score is is scored using a ruler where the score is determined by measuring the distance (mm) on the 10-cm line between the "no pain" anchor and the patient's mark, providing a range of scores from 0-100. A higher score indicates greater pain intensity. Based on the distribution of pain VAS scores in post-surgical patients who described their postoperative pain intensity as none, mild, moderate, or severe, the following cut points on the pain VAS have been recommended: no pain (0-4 mm), mild pain(5-44 mm), moderate pain (45-74 mm), and severe pain (75-100 mm) | up to 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks after either a hip injection or following CRFA treatment for hip OA pain. |

| 4 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 8 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 12 weeks +/- 2 weeks, and 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment, and 6 months and 1 year after the procedure |
| Physical performance (hip range of motion) | 4 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 8 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 12 weeks +/- 2 weeks, and 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment |
| Physical performance (50 ft walk test) | 4 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 8 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 12 weeks +/- 2 weeks, and 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment |
| Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) | This is a patient reported joint-specific score, which may be useful for assessing changes in hip pathology over time, with or without treatment. Scores range from 0 to 100 with a score of 0 indicating the worst possible hip symptoms and 100 indicating no hip symptoms. | 4 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 8 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 12 weeks +/- 2 weeks, and 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment, and 6 months and 1 year after the procedure |
| Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) | PROMIS® (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. PROMIS measures use a T-score metric in which 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population and 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population. For PROMIS measures, higher scores equals more of the concept being measured (e.g., more Fatigue, more Physical Function). Thus a score of 60 is one standard deviation above the average referenced population. | 4 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 8 weeks +/- 2 weeks, 12 weeks +/- 2 weeks, and 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks following treatment, and 6 months and 1 year after the procedure |
| Patient satisfaction with the study treatment via Likert scale questionnaire | At the final study visit (week 24+/- 2 weeks), subjects will be asked about their satisfaction with the study treatment via a Likert scale questionnaire. Satisfaction will be measured by the following scale: Very dissatisfied (1), Somewhat dissatisfied (2), Neutral satisfaction (3), Somewhat satisfied (4), and Very satisfied (5). The minimum value will be 1 and the maxim value will be 5. Higher scores are a better outcome, while lower scores are a worse outcome. | 24 weeks +/- 2 weeks after study treatment |
