Study Summary
This trial is testing whether amobarbital can prevent post-traumatic osteoarthritis in people who have fractured their ankle joints. The study is double-blind, meaning that neither the patients nor the researchers will know who is receiving the placebo or the active treatment. The study team will assess safety and begin to evaluate efficacy of amobarbital/Gel-One in patients having sustained tibial pilon fractures. The study team will use advanced imaging-based methods we have developed to characterize how joints subjected to varying levels of fracture severity and residual elevated contact stress respond in treated and control groups.

Group I: Phase I single amobarbital/Gel-One doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase I: An open label study of 3 patients will be done. If no dose limiting toxic (DLT) side effects occur, then an additional 3 patients will be done. If no DLT events occur, the study will proceed to Phase II.
Group II: Phase IIa Part 2 amobarbital/Gel-One doseActive Control1 Intervention
20 subjects will be randomized to one dose of amobarbital/Gel-One during the initial surgical intervention. A second dose will be administered during the second surgical intervention.
Group III: Phase IIa Part 1 amobarbital/Gel-One doseActive Control1 Intervention
20 subjects will be randomized to amobarbital/Gel-One single dose.
Group IV: Phase IIa Part 1 PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
10 subjects will be randomized to amobarbital/Gel-One single dose.
Group V: Phase IIa Part 2 placeboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
20 subjects will be randomized to one dose of placebo during the initial surgical intervention. A second dose will be administered during the second surgical intervention.
