Brief Summary: Phase I/IIA randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess safety and efficacy of oral losartan for improving cartilage repair following microfracture to treat focal cartilage defects during hip arthroscopy.
Detailed Description: This is a prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial that will be conducted at The Steadman Clinic and Steadman Philippon Research Institute.

Articular cartilage defects that extend full thickness to subchondral bone rarely heal without intervention. Some patients may not develop clinically significant problems from acute full-thickness chondral defects, but many eventually suffer from debilitating degenerative changes. Microfracture is the most commonly used first-line treatment technique for chondral lesions in the hip, however, this procedure's effectiveness is limited by the repair tissue being a hybrid of hyaline and fibrocartilage. We hypothesize that administration of a transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) blocker, losartan (an approved hypertension drug, angiotensin II receptor antagonist) with microfracture will enhance articular cartilage repair as assessed on quantitative magnetic resonance imaging. We will also measure patient benefit through the recording of patient reported outcomes in the 18 months following surgery. The Division of Pulmonary, Allergy and Rheumatology Products within the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at the Food and Drug Administration has granted an investigational new drug (IND) exemption to pursue this trial in accordance with 21 CFR 312.2(b).
