Extracellular vesicles in fibrin gel for cartilage repair
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial studies whether adding special healing particles (extracellular vesicles) to a natural gel can help repair cartilage in people with knee or hip osteoarthritis. It looks at patients already scheduled for surgery or regenerative treatments like PRP.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid injections for knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if these injections together can reduce pain and improve function better than standard treatments.
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.
This trial tests whether tiny particles called extracellular vesicles can help treat severe knee osteoarthritis. If you have advanced knee arthritis and are otherwise healthy, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a treatment made from stem cell proteins combined with growth factors from your own blood. It is injected into the knee to help repair cartilage and reduce pain in people with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis.
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 tests a treatment using your own cells (stromal vascular fraction) to repair knee joint damage and reduce pain. It may help people with knee arthritis, tendon injuries, or persistent knee pain.
