A Phase 1/2a to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Adipose Tissue Allograft (BRC-OA) in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee
NCT06828666 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of BRC-OA for pain treatment in patients with mild to severe OA of the knee, focusing particularly on two distinct doses. Alongside safety assessments, the study also aims to investigate the initial efficacy of BRC-OA in treating pain among these patients. The study product is a cryopreserved devitalized adipose tissue allograft (BRC-OA). BRC-OA is composed of a devitalized human adipose particulate that retains the inherent properties of adipose such as tissue architecture, extracellular matrix, and signaling molecules.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06828666
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06828666 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 42 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Britecyte, which has 1 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Osteoarthritis of Knee appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Cryopreserved Devitalized Adipose Tissue Allograft is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06828666 reports 7 study locations spanning 3 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
