Recruiting studies in Georgia
- NCT06096259RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing knee arthritis after ACL injury

Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–45 - NCT07641517RecruitingPhase 2
Testing LY4065967 for chronic knee osteoarthritis pain

Woodstock, GeorgiaAges 40 years+ - NCT06884865RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an experimental knee injection for osteoarthritis pain
This study tests a new investigational medicine injected into the knee to see if it is safe and tolerable for people with painful knee osteoarthritis. It may help reduce pain and improve knee function.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 45–80 - NCT07353931RecruitingPhase 3
Study of eloralintide for knee osteoarthritis pain in people with overweight or obesity
This trial tests an investigational drug called eloralintide to see if it can reduce knee pain in people with osteoarthritis who also have overweight or obesity. You may be able to join if you have knee osteoarthritis, a BMI of 27 or higher, and have tried to lose weight with diet before.
Decatur, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07153471RecruitingPhase 3
A study of an experimental pill for weight loss and knee arthritis
This trial tests an investigational medication (orforglipron) to see if it helps people with knee arthritis lose weight. You may qualify if you have overweight or obesity and have tried dieting before without lasting success.
Decatur, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07481630RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new medicine for weight loss and knee pain
This study tests if a new medicine called NNC0487-0111 can help people with extra weight and knee osteoarthritis lose weight and reduce knee pain. If you have knee pain most days and are willing to stop pain relievers for short periods, you may be able to join.
Conyers, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06058169RecruitingTeam says not enrolling
Home vibration therapy for arthritis knee pain
This study tests if doing whole-body vibration exercises at home can help reduce knee pain from arthritis. You stand on a gently vibrating platform for short periods over several weeks.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 40–75 - NCT06319911Recruiting
Testing a new shoulder replacement implant system
This study tests a new shoulder implant system for people who need their first shoulder replacement due to arthritis or a shoulder deformity. It helps researchers see how well the implant works and if it improves shoulder function and pain.
Columbus, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05292339RecruitingPhase 4
Ketorolac shot for painful hand and arm tendon/joint problems
This trial studies whether a ketorolac injection can safely reduce pain and symptoms from certain shoulder, elbow, hand, or wrist tendon or joint conditions. It may help people who haven’t had surgery for the problem yet.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05603728Recruiting
Follow-up study for Exactech shoulder implants after surgery
This study follows people who get (or already had) a shoulder replacement to see how the implant is doing over time. It may help improve future care by tracking long-term performance and safety.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 21 years+ - NCT05986292RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new treatments for chronic pain
This study tests new treatments for chronic pain that lasts at least 3 months. Participants must stop their regular pain medicines and use only a rescue painkiller if needed. The goal is to find better ways to manage long-term pain.
Woodstock, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06040827Recruiting
Study of a knee implant extension for knee replacement
This trial is for adults having their first knee replacement surgery. It tests a special part (tibial extension) of a common knee implant system. Researchers will follow participants over time to see how well it works.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06193343Recruiting
Steps to prevent osteoarthritis after ACL surgery
This study tests whether increasing your daily steps after ACL reconstruction can help prevent knee osteoarthritis. It involves walking more and tracking your activity over time.
Athens, GeorgiaAges 16–40 - NCT06292169Recruiting
Comparing two ways to release a muscle in reverse shoulder replacement
This trial tests if releasing a small chest muscle (the pectoralis minor) during reverse total shoulder replacement leads to better recovery or pain relief compared to not releasing it.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06311513RecruitingPhase 4
Concentrated bone marrow injection during repeat ACL surgery
This study tests whether adding a concentrated bone marrow injection during repeat ACL surgery helps healing and recovery better than surgery alone. If you have had a previous ACL reconstruction that failed, you may be eligible.

What taking part in a osteoarthritis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there osteoarthritis clinical trials in Georgia?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 15 recruiting osteoarthritis studies with a site in Georgia, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a osteoarthritis study in Georgia?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Georgia to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Georgia, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a osteoarthritis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
