Casper Orthopedics are about to have a new way of managing pain in the ankle and knee joints.
The company has patented a new compound that’s designed to slow down the healing process and ease the burden of arthritis.
The new compound will be tested on human patients before being approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.
Casper Orthopaedics are looking to move beyond the current technology, which uses a topical medication called arboron, to the development of a new technology that targets the more active joint tissues.
“Our approach is focused on controlling inflammation in the joint tissues, and the compound is able to do that,” Mr Gilder, Casper’s chief executive officer, said.
“In terms of pain management, the compound helps to decrease inflammation, and in terms of the progression of arthritis, the compounds have been shown to improve the ability of the joints to heal.”
The new compound, called the arboroplastin (AR), has already been approved by regulators in Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
It’s the latest addition to a range of anti-inflammatory medicines that have been developed by Casper, which has been involved in developing several other therapies including arthritis-fighting creams, knee-protective glasses and wristbands.
The company has been developing the compound in a lab in the US and in a clinical trial in a small trial in Japan.
The US approval was first announced in February.
Mr Gilders team has spent years developing the new compound and are confident it will help patients with arthritis and joint pain.
“We have developed a new therapeutic compound that targets all the joint surfaces, including the muscles and ligaments,” he said.
He said the compound works with two different molecules in the blood and on the surface of the skin.
There are two types of compounds in the human body, called cytokines and chemokines, and each has a specific effect on how a substance is made.
According to Dr Gildert, there is one compound that binds to all the cells in the body, and that’s called the cytokine receptor.
This receptor is found in every cell in the central nervous system and is responsible for sending signals to other cells in a system.
Dr Gilderman said this compound, known as arborosol, was the only compound that worked in the animal models of arthritis that he was involved in.
Its use in the clinical trial was approved by a third-party regulatory body.
While the compound does not appear to cause any direct side effects in the humans tested in the trial, it does have some side effects, Dr Galderman said.
“The first thing we’re seeing in the study is increased sensitivity to heat, and you’ll see increased inflammation,” he explained.
“There’s some pain relief and some pain management in some cases, but not in others.”
It’s important to note that the compound has been tested in humans before, so we know it’s safe.
“A number of studies have shown that the arboretin compound has some of the same anti-cancer properties as the active ingredient in the arthritis medication, arborolacin, which was originally developed to treat cancer.
ArborolAcin is also used in skin creams and other products.”
Arborosocins have been proven to inhibit tumor growth in multiple cancer types and can help with the prevention of osteoarthritis, joint pain and other conditions associated with arthritis,” Dr Gaulder said.
The compound’s use in treating arthritis has been backed by several international research groups, including those at the University of Cambridge and the University College London.
Professor Robert A. Miller, an orthopedic surgeon and head of the University’s Division of Orthopedic Surgery, said the results from the trial indicated that the new AR compound could be a valuable alternative to other treatments.
A report published in the American Journal of Orthopsychiatry last year showed that the drug AR was more effective at reducing pain in patients with osteo-arthritis than traditional non-steroidal anti-inflammatories.
Although the trial was not conducted in humans, it was the first to show a compound that works in humans.
After a year and a half of testing, Dr Miller said he was satisfied with the results.”
These findings show that AR is more effective than either of the newer active agents, and is more likely to be more effective in reducing pain and improving quality of life in people with arthritis, such as those with hip or knee pain,” he wrote in the report.
With a price tag of about $40,000, the AR compound is cheaper than other treatments, such to relieve symptoms of joint pain, pain in joints, stiffness and swelling, as well as pain management.
Casper said it has also developed a treatment for people with osteoporosis. Earlier
