Bioibérica Presents Symposium on Synovitis at EULAR
Congress
As a company specializing in research in
osteoarthritis (OA) and chondroitin sulfate, Bioibérica has decided
to study the synovial membrane in cases of OA in greater depth due
to growing interest in its role in the disease and the new
scientific findings from the GAIT trial, which indicate that the
synovial membrane is an important therapeutic target and that
chondroitin sulfate is an effective treatment. These data were
presented at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology (EULAR) in
June 2007 in Barcelona.
Satellite symposium carried out by
Bioiberica was entitled:
THE ROLE OF SYNOVITIS IN THE
PHYSIOPATHOLOGY OF OSTEOARTHRITIS: NEW EFFECTS OF CHONDROITIN
SULFATE
This symposium focuses on the role of synovitis in
OA, its diagnosis and treatment with Chondroitin Sulfate based on
new data on its efficacy in synovitis. Synovitis is an
inflammatory process of the synovial membrane and constitutes one of
the main characteristics of inflammatory joint diseases, with a
prevalence of about 50% among people suffering from OA. Results from
GAIT (Glucosamine/Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial) Study
demonstrated that Chondroitin Sulfate reduced very significantly (p
0.01) synovitis / joint effusion at 6 months of
treatment.
After this successful symposium, two others will
be held at the international congresses of other major organizations
in 2007: the American College of Rheumatism (ACR) and Osteoarthritis
Research Society International (OARSI).
