Recruiting studies
- NCT07785401Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma plus hyaluronic acid for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to hyaluronic acid injections improves knee osteoarthritis pain and function better than hyaluronic acid alone. You may be eligible if you have moderate knee osteoarthritis and no other knee problems.
Warsaw, Masovian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07784907Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid for knee arthritis
This trial tests whether a combination of platelet-rich plasma (a concentrate from your own blood) and hyaluronic acid (a joint lubricant) helps reduce pain and improve function in people with knee arthritis. You may be eligible if you have moderate knee pain but your other knee is relatively pain-free.
Chełm, Lublin VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06611618Recruiting
Predicting fall risk in knee osteoarthritis using muscle tests
This study looks at how loss of muscle strength and control in people with knee osteoarthritis can predict falls. It uses tests and MRI to understand your risk, with the goal of helping prevent future falls.
BolognaAges 65–80 - NCT06781463Recruiting
Knee arthritis treatment registry
This study tracks patients with knee arthritis who undergo a procedure called genicular artery embolization (GAE), a minimally invasive option for those not ready for or not eligible for knee replacement. The goal is to see how well GAE works for pain relief.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06859164RecruitingPhase 2
Knee artery treatment for chronic osteoarthritis pain
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization to reduce pain in people with knee osteoarthritis that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if blocking certain blood vessels can relieve pain and help you avoid or delay knee replacement surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 40–80 - NCT07224958Recruiting
Knee brace for inner knee arthritis: a study
This study tests whether wearing a special knee brace for at least 4 hours a day can help reduce pain and improve function in people with arthritis in the inner part of the knee. It compares wearing a brace to not wearing one, so you could help find out if braces are a good option for managing knee pain.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 40–85 - NCT07731737Recruiting
Biofeedback vs foam roller for knee osteoarthritis
This trial compares two non-surgical therapies—pressure biofeedback and foam rolling—to see which better reduces pain, improves muscle function, and boosts quality of life in people with early-stage knee osteoarthritis.
LahoreAges 45–65 - NCT04651673Enrolling by invitation
Knee brace program for adults with knee osteoarthritis pain
This trial looks at using a prescribed knee brace to help relieve knee pain and symptoms from knee osteoarthritis. You may be able to join if your knee braces are being provided through participating clinics and you can consent and complete study questionnaires.
Hässleholm, Skåne CountyAges 18–100 - NCT06191848RecruitingPhase 4
Tirzepatide for obesity and knee osteoarthritis
This trial tests a once-weekly injection called tirzepatide to help people with obesity and severe knee osteoarthritis lose weight and potentially reduce knee pain. It may be a good option if you're already waiting for knee replacement surgery and have struggled to lose weight in the past.
Fitzroy, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07351981Enrolling by invitation
Cooled radiofrequency for knee osteoarthritis pain
This study tests a new approach called cooled radiofrequency (TcPRF) to calm knee pain from osteoarthritis. It may be an option if standard treatments haven't worked and you haven't had certain other treatments recently.
AthensAges 45 years+ - NCT07522489Recruiting
New knee replacement surgery guidance methods compared
This study compares two ways doctors use computer guidance during robotic knee replacement surgery for severe knee arthritis. The trial tests whether both methods work equally well or if one is better for patient recovery and results.
Warsaw, MazovianAges 18 years+ - NCT07464080Recruiting
Brain imaging study for knee replacement patients
This study uses advanced brain scans to understand how pain and recovery change after knee replacement surgery. It may help researchers develop better ways to manage pain after surgery.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07231471Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma for muscle and joint pain
This study tests whether an injection of your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can help heal muscle, tendon, or joint problems that haven't gotten better with other treatments like physical therapy or medications.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT06872567Recruiting
Knee artery block vs. steroid injection for arthritis pain
This study compares two treatments for knee arthritis pain: a procedure that blocks blood flow to the painful area (genicular artery embolization) versus a steroid injection into the knee joint. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 40 years+ - NCT06896032Recruiting
Walking backward vs forward on an underwater treadmill for knee osteoarthritis
This study compares walking backward versus walking forward on an underwater treadmill to see which helps reduce pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. It may be a good fit if you have mild to moderate knee OA in one knee and are between 40 and 60 years old.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 40–60 - NCT07130630Recruiting
Pain and activity confidence in Vietnamese knee osteoarthritis
This study tests a questionnaire that measures how confident people with knee osteoarthritis feel about doing daily activities despite pain. Your answers will help doctors better understand and support Vietnamese-speaking patients.
Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi MinhAges 50 years+ - NCT06845553RecruitingPhase 2
Vutiglabridin for knee osteoarthritis: a phase 2 study
This trial tests an experimental pill called Vutiglabridin for people with knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective at reducing knee pain and improving function.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 40–75 - NCT06875817Recruiting
Feldenkrais exercises for knee osteoarthritis pain
This study tests if gentle, slow Feldenkrais movement exercises can reduce knee pain and improve mobility in people with moderate knee osteoarthritis. It is designed for those who are still able to walk and get up from the floor, but are experiencing significant pain.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07589127Recruiting
Nerve Block for Pain Relief During Knee Replacement
This study tests whether blocking a specific nerve in the knee can reduce pain and improve recovery after total knee replacement surgery. You would receive this nerve block alongside standard anesthesia to see if it helps you need fewer pain medications afterward.
Hjelset, Møre og RomsdalAges 18–80 - NCT06094660Recruiting
Nerve blocking for knee arthritis pain
This study tests two treatments for knee arthritis pain when knee replacement isn't an option: a nerve block using heat (radiofrequency ablation) or a chemical injection (phenol), compared to standard care. It aims to find a better way to reduce pain and improve daily function.
Hoorn, North HollandAges 35–90 - NCT07178951Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided nerve treatment for knee osteoarthritis pain
This trial tests a non-surgical treatment that uses ultrasound to target nerves causing pain on the inner side of your knee due to osteoarthritis. It may help reduce pain and improve function for people with moderate to severe knee pain.
North York, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06986694Recruiting
Voodoo flossing for knee arthritis pain and mobility
This study tests if a special flossing technique (tight elastic bands wrapped around the knee) can improve pain, stiffness, and walking in people with knee osteoarthritis. It is designed for patients who have had knee pain for at least 3 months and have trouble walking or balancing.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT06809998RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Steroid injection in non-surgical knee before knee replacement

Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05839535RecruitingPhase 2
Baduanjin plus brain stimulation for knee osteoarthritis pain
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining Baduanjin (a guided mind-body movement) with neuromodulation can improve knee osteoarthritis symptoms and function. It compares education-based stretching/control and uses MRI scanning as part of the research.
