Recruiting studies
- NCT05067543Recruiting
Shoulder replacement study using a new humerus implant device
This study tests a specific device used for shoulder arthroplasty (shoulder replacement) in adults. You may be able to join if you need a shoulder replacement and meet safety checks around infection, bone quality, and allergies.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07199738Recruiting
Knee replacement study with a new implant option
This study tests a specific knee implant insert (LEGION Medial Stabilized) in people who need a total knee replacement due to arthritis or similar joint disease. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well over time.
Newton, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT04572256RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Montelukast after ACL surgery to protect knee cartilage
This early trial tests whether montelukast, a tablet used for allergies, can help protect knee cartilage after ACL surgery. It is specifically for people who have a meniscus injury along with their ACL tear.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 25–50 - NCT04875052Recruiting
Study vibration after ACL injury and future arthritis risk
This study looks at whether using vibration after an ACL injury helps predict or reduce the risk of developing post-traumatic osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis) later. It may help researchers learn which patients are more likely to develop arthritis after ACL reconstruction.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 16–35 - NCT05227924Recruiting
Testing safety and performance of a hip implant device type
This study checks how safe and well a specific brand of hip implant (SYMBOL range) works in people getting a total hip replacement. It may help by confirming the device performs as expected for primary or revision surgeries.
BeaumontAges 18 years+ - NCT05412381RecruitingPhase 3
PRP after ACL injury to help prevent knee arthritis
This study tests whether PRP (platelet-rich plasma) given after an ACL injury and surgery can lower the chance of developing long-term knee arthritis. It may help protect the knee over time by targeting early healing after ACL reconstruction.
New York, New YorkAges 14–50 - 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.
Laguna Woods, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT05848622Recruiting
Gait retraining after ACL surgery for fast knee recovery
This trial tests a walking (gait) rehabilitation program to improve how you move after ACL reconstruction. It may help if you are still having walking mechanics issues in the months to years after surgery.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 16–35 - NCT06096259RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing knee arthritis after ACL injury
This trial tests whether metformin, a common diabetes medicine, can prevent arthritis after an ACL injury. If you are planning to have ACL surgery soon, you may be able to join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–45 - 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.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–55 - NCT06686680Recruiting
Shockwave therapy for knee arthritis after ACL repair
This study tests whether shockwave therapy can help knee pain and function in people who developed knee osteoarthritis after an ACL reconstruction. If you had ACL surgery at least a year ago and still have knee pain, this treatment might offer a new option without surgery.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges 18–55 - NCT06892899Enrolling by invitation
Exercise study for knee health after ACL surgery
This study tests whether a specific exercise program can improve knee health in people who have had ACL surgery. It aims to understand how exercise affects the knee after injury and may help prevent arthritis.
Oslo, OsloAges 16–40 - NCT03404778Enrolling by invitation
Collecting data on reverse shoulder implants for weak rotator cuff
This study collects real-world information about a reverse shoulder implant used when the rotator cuff is badly damaged. It may help improve how these implants are chosen and how well they work for pain relief and improving arm function.
Towson, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05062252Recruiting
Study of a new mirrored shoulder replacement system
This trial looks at a “mirror” shoulder replacement system for adults with painful shoulder arthritis who need their shoulder replaced. It aims to see how well the implant works and how safely it can be used for people who can follow study instructions.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT05719935Recruiting
KinematX wrist replacement registry for people with wrist arthritis
This trial is a registry that follows people who get (or already had) a KinematX total wrist replacement. It collects health and recovery information to better understand outcomes for different wrist problems, like arthritis or certain bone alignment issues.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT07104279Recruiting
Zimmer Biomet hip implant follow-up study
This study is for people who need a hip replacement for the first time. It is testing a specific hip implant system called the Z1 Hip System and will follow patients to see how well it works over time.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03048201Recruiting
Total Knee Replacement Registry Study for a Specific Knee Implant
This study tracks outcomes for people getting a total knee replacement using a specific knee implant system. It may help doctors understand which patients do best and how the implant performs over time.
Rancho Mirage, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06546345Recruiting
Study of KeriFlex® implant for hand joint replacement
This trial tracks how well the KeriFlex® implant works over time in people who need a finger joint replacement due to arthritis or injury. It aims to see if the implant helps reduce pain and improve hand function.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for post-traumatic osteoarthritis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting post-traumatic 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 post-traumatic 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 post-traumatic 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.
