Recruiting studies
- NCT07625150Recruiting
PET/MRI Imaging Study of Kneecap Joint Osteoarthritis
This research study uses advanced imaging (PET and MRI scans) to better understand osteoarthritis in the front of the knee, where the kneecap meets the thighbone. You'll help researchers learn how to detect and track this condition earlier.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06576583RecruitingPhase 2
Cartilage graft for kneecap arthritis
This trial tests a new graft made from lab-grown cartilage to treat knee pain under the kneecap. It compares the graft to standard surgery for people with moderate-to-severe kneecap arthritis who haven't improved with other treatments.
ViennaAges 18–70 - NCT06163573RecruitingPhase 2
Cartilage repair for kneecap arthritis
This trial tests a lab-grown cartilage implant for people with arthritis behind the kneecap. It aims to reduce pain and improve knee function.
ZagrebAges 18–65 - NCT04937998Recruiting
PRP or hyaluronic acid injections for knee cartilage pain
This trial compares two injection treatments—platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid (HA)—for pain from osteoarthritis in the kneecap area. It looks to see which injection works better and for whom, using symptom follow-up and imaging.
BolognaAges 30–65 - NCT06423300Recruiting
Testing a new implant for kneecap cartilage damage
This trial tests a new implant called the Patellar LIFT System to treat pain caused by cartilage damage behind the kneecap. It is for people who have tried other treatments like physical therapy but still have significant knee pain.
La Mesa, CaliforniaAges 22–65 - NCT07472088Recruiting
Knee pain study using weight-bearing CT scans
This trial uses a special CT scan taken while you stand to see how the shape of your knee joint relates to your knee pain. It may help researchers better understand knee arthritis and front-of-knee pain.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06762171Recruiting
Knee arthritis treatment for inner and front knee pain
This trial tests a treatment for people with knee arthritis affecting the inner and front parts of the knee. It aims to help relieve pain and improve function without needing a full knee replacement.
Sohag, Sohag GovernorateAges 35–60

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for patellofemoral osteoarthritis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 7 recruiting patellofemoral 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 patellofemoral 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 patellofemoral 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.
