Recruiting studies
- NCT06891807Recruiting
Robotic vs augmented reality knee replacement
This study compares two advanced technologies for total knee replacement: a robot that uses a CT scan for guidance versus an augmented reality system that uses no scan. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes for patients with osteoarthritis.

This study compares how much noise the knee makes (and how it feels to the patient) after two different kinds of total knee replacement surgery. It aims to help patients know what to expect after surgery.
AuxerreAges 18 years+ - NCT06839807Recruiting
Testing a new device for knee replacement loosening
This study tests a new device (AtMoves Knee System) to help diagnose if a knee replacement is loose. It is for people who have had a knee replacement and have symptoms that might mean the implant is loose, but standard tests have not given a clear answer.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06829433Recruiting

This study looks at how people with knee arthritis or a knee replacement walk and move. It aims to find better ways to measure knee function and improve treatments.
Portsmouth, HampshireAges 40–85 - NCT06758297Recruiting
AI motivational talk after knee replacement
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence-guided motivational conversation can help reduce fear of moving after knee replacement surgery, and improve how much you can move.
Samsun, SamsunAges 18 years+ - NCT07629388Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after knee replacement surgery
This trial tests whether adding a nerve block (a numbing injection near the nerve) to the usual pain plan can better control pain after a total knee replacement. The goal is to help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06670651Enrolling by invitation
Study of a new total knee replacement system
This trial is testing a new knee replacement system called LinkSymphoKnee. It is for people needing a first-time total knee replacement to help reduce pain and improve function.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–79 - NCT06676189Recruiting
Comparing two types of plastic knee implants for replacement
This study compares two different types of plastic knee implants (polyethylene) used in total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see which one works best for patients with knee arthritis.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18–90 - NCT06596031Enrolling by invitation
Health coaching for people waiting for hip or knee replacement
This study tests whether health coaching can help people who are waiting for hip or knee replacement surgery. It aims to improve your health and wellbeing while you wait for your operation.
SheffieldAges 18 years+ - NCT06581965RecruitingPhase 4
Personalized blood clot prevention for hip or knee replacement
This trial compares a personalized approach to preventing blood clots after hip or knee replacement surgery with the standard one-size-fits-all method. The goal is to see if tailoring prevention to each patient works better and is safer.
Apeldoorn, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07577869Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain relief after knee replacement
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) around the knee to help manage pain after total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if these injections reduce pain and improve recovery compared to standard pain treatment.
Kayseri, KocasinanAges 18–80 - NCT06447922Enrolling by invitation
Metal Levels After Knee Replacement
This study measures metal levels in the blood after knee replacement surgery. It may help researchers understand how metal from the new joint affects the body.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–100 - NCT07485803RecruitingPhase 4
Methadone for pain after knee replacement
This study tests whether methadone, a type of pain medicine, helps control pain better after knee replacement surgery. It is for people who have not used narcotics recently and are otherwise healthy.
Denver, ColoradoAges 21–75 - NCT06290336Recruiting
Exercise and education before knee replacement surgery
This study tests if exercise therapy and patient education before total knee replacement can improve recovery. It may help people waiting for their first knee replacement due to osteoarthritis.
Linköping, Östergötland CountyAges 40–85 - NCT06280352Recruiting
Robotic vs custom knee replacement trial
This study compares two modern ways of doing knee replacement: robot-assisted surgery versus a custom-made implant tailored to your knee shape. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and function for people with osteoarthritis.
Graz, StyriaAges 40–90 - NCT06203756Enrolling by invitation
Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement Outcomes Study
This study tests a robotic-assisted system for knee replacement surgery. It aims to see how well patients do with the robotic help.
Flagstaff, ArizonaAges Any age - NCT05992064Recruiting
Wearable sensors to track recovery after knee replacement
This study uses a small wearable sensor placed on your leg after knee replacement surgery to track your recovery. It helps doctors see how well you are moving and healing, without extra visits to the hospital.
Frederikshavn, North DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT05966519Recruiting
Study testing flexible planning for knee replacement with ROSA
This study looks at how flexible pre-op planning can be when you get a total knee replacement using the ROSA system. It may help doctors fine-tune surgery planning while keeping outcomes safe and effective.
Fukuoka, FukuokaAges 20 years+ - NCT05842538Recruiting
Robotic surgery for total knee replacement in arthritis
This trial studies whether robotic-assisted surgery can improve or standardize outcomes for people getting a total knee replacement for severe arthritis. It may help by using a robot to assist during the knee operation, but you must meet specific knee and health criteria.
GothenburgAges 18–80 - NCT05736549RecruitingPhase 2
Tested stronger pain-blocking shot for knee replacement surgery
This Phase 2 study compares two ways to reduce pain after total knee replacement (TKA): a steroid-enhanced nerve block versus a numbing shot called Exparel. It aims to see which option improves comfort and recovery after surgery done with spinal anesthesia.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05653102Recruiting
Collecting data on a knee replacement system after surgery
This study collects real-world health and surgery records to better understand how the Truliant total knee replacement performs. It may help doctors and patients by improving future guidance on this knee system’s safety and effectiveness.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05642260Recruiting
Fall-prevention program after knee replacement for older women
This trial tests whether a structured fall-prevention program can reduce the number of falls in older women after total knee replacement surgery. It may help you stay safer as you recover and move around.
Kuwait CityAges 60 years+ - NCT05279092RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two pain-control injections for knee replacement surgery

New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05290818Recruiting
Robotic vs standard knee replacement for inner-joint wear
This trial compares robotic-assisted knee replacement with the usual (non-robotic) approach for people with severe arthritis on the inner (medial) side of the knee. It aims to see which method works better for pain and function while matching the right knee anatomy for certain implant types.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for total knee replacement?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 122 recruiting total knee replacement 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 total knee replacement 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 total knee replacement 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.
