This study tests whether low-level laser therapy (a painless, non-surgical treatment using light) can reduce knee pain and improve knee function, cartilage health, and muscle strength in people with moderate knee osteoarthritis. It may be an option if you haven't had recent knee injections or physical therapy.
Ankara, YENIMAHALLEAges 50 years+ - NCT07108400Recruiting
Combination therapy for hip osteoarthritis pain and function
This trial tests if combining ultrasound-guided hyaluronic acid injections with laser therapy and rehabilitation can improve hip function and reduce pain in people with hip osteoarthritis. It may be an option if you have moderate hip pain and are not currently taking anti-inflammatory medications.
Catanzaro, CZAges 18–85 - NCT07121556Recruiting
Fat tissue vs fat tissue plus gel for knee osteoarthritis
This trial compares two injections for knee arthritis: one uses your own fat tissue, the other adds a lubricating gel. Researchers want to see if the combination helps pain and function more than fat tissue alone.
BolognaAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT07134244Recruiting
Predicting cartilage damage and pain after knee injury or early arthritis
This study uses computer models and MRI scans to predict how knee cartilage and pain may change over time in people with early osteoarthritis or a recent ACL tear. It aims to find better ways to manage these conditions and prevent long-term damage.
Aalborg, North DenmarkAges 18–70 - NCT07166068Recruiting
Movement therapy for knee osteoarthritis inflammation
This study tests whether specific mobilization exercises can reduce inflammation in people with knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if these movements help lower markers of inflammation and improve pain.
Jizan, Jazan RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07168590Recruiting
Knee X-ray and its link to pain and fear of movement in osteoarthritis
This study looks at whether the shape of your knee on an X-ray is related to how much pain you feel and how afraid you are of moving. It may help doctors better understand knee osteoarthritis.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07178223Recruiting
Thumb base replacement surgery for arthritis
This study tests a new type of thumb joint replacement surgery for people with arthritis at the base of the thumb. The goal is to see if it relieves pain and improves function better than current treatments.
StockholmAges Any age - 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+ - NCT07198555RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BBM-A101 for knee osteoarthritis
This trial tests a new medicine called BBM-A101 for people with moderate knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if it is safe and helps reduce pain and improve function.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 40–75 - NCT07219771RecruitingPhase 3
Testing MOTYS injection for knee osteoarthritis pain
This trial tests an injection called PTP-001 (MOTYS) for people with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if the injection can reduce knee pain and improve function.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40–80 - NCT07238751Recruiting
Bowen technique and backward walking for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests whether the Bowen technique (a gentle hands-on therapy) combined with walking backward can improve hamstring flexibility and reduce pain in people with knee osteoarthritis. It may help if you have tight hamstrings and mild to moderate knee arthritis.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07245121Recruiting
Sugar water injections for chronic knee arthritis pain
This trial tests whether injecting a sugar-water solution around the nerves of the knee can reduce chronic pain from osteoarthritis. It is for people with long-term knee pain, stiffness, and cracking who have not had recent knee treatments or surgery.
Athens, AtticaAges 38 years+ - NCT07300384Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for knee pain relief before surgery
This study tests whether a special type of strength training (called blood flow restriction training) can reduce pain in people with severe knee arthritis who are waiting for knee replacement surgery. The training uses a cuff on the thigh to lightly restrict blood flow while doing exercises until failure.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 50–85 - NCT07302204Recruiting
Exercise for knee osteoarthritis pain relief
This study compares two types of exercise — aerobic (like walking or cycling) versus specific therapeutic exercises — to see which one better helps people with knee osteoarthritis who do not get pain relief from exercise. It aims to find an exercise plan that reduces knee pain and improves movement.
São PauloAges 40–75 - NCT07308873Recruiting

Hyaluronic acid plus fibrinogen for knee arthritis
This study tests whether a combination of two natural substances—hyaluronic acid (a joint lubricant) and fibrinogen (a blood protein that helps healing)—given as an injection into the knee, can safely reduce pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. It is for Vietnamese patients who have not recently used certain painkillers or had other knee treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for osteoarthritis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 611 recruiting osteoarthritis studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a osteoarthritis 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 osteoarthritis 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.
