Finger joint fusion study using KeriFuse implant
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a small metal implant (KeriFuse) that fuses the arthritic joint at the tip of your finger to reduce pain. It's for people with finger arthritis who are healthy enough for surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a new implant (TOUCH® CMC) for people with thumb arthritis. It aims to see if the implant relieves pain and improves function.
This study tests if a procedure that quiets the nerves around a painful finger joint (PIP joint denervation) can reduce pain and improve hand function for people with osteoarthritis. It offers a possible alternative before considering more invasive surgery.
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.
This trial studies a new implant (the CapFlex) to replace a damaged finger joint (the PIP joint) when conservative treatments are not enough. It may help reduce pain and improve stability for the right type of joint problem.
This trial tests whether surgical “nerve disconnection” (joint denervation) can reduce pain from osteoarthritis in a finger joint. It focuses on people who have ongoing finger pain despite usual treatments for at least 3 months.
This trial tests two surgical treatments for thumb base arthritis (rhizarthrosis) when other treatments like splints and injections haven't worked. It compares a newer joint implant (arthroplasty) with a standard procedure to remove a small bone (trapezectomy). The goal is to see which helps patients recover hand function better.
