Physical therapy for shoulder arthritis pain
This study tests if a specific physical therapy program can help people with shoulder arthritis (wear-and-tear in the shoulder joint) feel better and move more easily without surgery. It may help you if you have this type of arthritis and have not tried physical therapy recently.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07745426RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing add-on treatments for rheumatoid arthritis
This trial compares two additional medicines (diosmin or rebamipide) taken with standard arthritis treatment to see if they help reduce joint pain and swelling better than standard treatment alone.
TantaAges 18–70 - NCT04238143Recruiting
Knee and other joint arthritis tissue therapy
This trial tests a regenerative therapy made from a patient’s own fat tissue (a “cellular” treatment) to reduce pain and improve function in arthritis-related problems. It may help people with inflammatory or degenerative arthritis changes, if they meet safety and tissue-donation requirements.
Valencia, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05291819Recruiting
Imaging-guided vs standard treatment for psoriatic arthritis
This study compares two “treat-to-target” strategies for psoriatic arthritis. One strategy uses imaging to guide treatment changes, and the other uses standard clinic assessments, to see which approach controls symptoms more effectively.
ÅlesundAges 18 years+ - NCT07730723RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Nicorandil for moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis
This study tests whether a heart medication called nicorandil can help reduce arthritis symptoms when added to your current treatment. It is for people with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who have been stable on their current treatments.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07721142RecruitingPhase 4
Chinese medicine and Western medicine for hard-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis
This trial combines traditional Chinese herbal medicine with standard Western treatments for people with rheumatoid arthritis that hasn't responded well to at least two prior medications. It aims to see if the combination is more effective and safe.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT07718815Recruiting
HLA B leader study in psoriatic arthritis
This study looks at a specific genetic marker (HLA B leader) in people with psoriatic arthritis compared to healthy individuals. It may help researchers understand how this gene affects the disease.
Amiens, PicardieAges 18 years+ - NCT07706777RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug for acute gout flares
This trial tests an oral medication (HRS-2129) to see if it can calm a sudden gout flare and reduce joint pain. It may help if you are currently having a moderate-to-severe gout attack and are otherwise in good health.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06640309RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide for rheumatoid arthritis: a clinical trial
This trial tests if taking a vitamin B3 supplement (nicotinamide) can improve outcomes for people with rheumatoid arthritis. Researchers want to see if adding this over-the-counter vitamin to your usual arthritis medicines helps reduce disease activity.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07684157RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug for active rheumatoid arthritis
This trial tests an investigational drug called JAB-8263 for people with active rheumatoid arthritis. It aims to see if the drug can help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07678112Recruiting
Trial of a device to keep rheumatoid arthritis in remission
This trial tests a medical device to help people with rheumatoid arthritis stay in remission while on biologic therapy. The goal is to see if the device can prevent flares and maintain disease control.
A Coruña, A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT07674134Recruiting

- How do I know if I qualify for a arthritis trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a arthritis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
