Testing IOBP treatment for knee bone lesions seen on MRI
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial studies whether an IOBP® procedure can reduce knee pain in adults with a specific bone lesion under the joint surface. It focuses on people whose MRI shows one target lesion and who are already planned for IOBP surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can read, understand, and sign the consent form
- You’re between 18 and 60 years old and have knee pain for over 3 months
- Your MRI shows one specific subchondral bone lesion (in the tibia or femur), and it’s confirmed on several MRI views
- Your knee ligaments are stable and your leg alignment is near straight (not more than about 5° inward or outward)
- Your pain is at least 5 out of 10, and you’re scheduled to have the IOBP procedure
- You must not have major exclusions like uncontrolled diabetes, recent leg surgery, active infection, or severe arthritis

This trial tests a procedure called subchondroplasty for people with severe knee arthritis who have bone marrow lesions. It aims to relieve pain and delay the need for knee replacement.
This trial tests a new type of implant (a fiber-reinforced kneebar) for people with knee pain caused by a bone marrow lesion (BML) and osteoarthritis. The goal is to see if it helps relieve pain and improve knee function.
This trial tests a BioPoly implant to repair a small damaged cartilage spot in your knee. If you have a specific type of cartilage injury that didn't get better with other treatments, this implant may help relieve pain and improve function.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses your own bone marrow cells to grow a piece of tissue to repair damaged knee cartilage. It's for people with a single, medium-sized cartilage injury on the thigh bone part of the knee joint that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
This trial studies knee tissue to find better ways to diagnose early osteoarthritis. It may help people who need a knee injection for pain relief.
This trial tests a bone graft putty called In'Oss to repair bone defects in the upper arm, forearm, thigh, or shin. It aims to see if it helps heal bone gaps during surgery.
