Comparing two knee injections for osteoarthritis pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares two treatments for knee pain from osteoarthritis: a natural substance made from your blood (platelet-rich fibrin) and a joint lubricant (hyaluronic acid). Both are injected into the knee to see which gives better pain relief.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have moderate knee osteoarthritis
- You are generally healthy or have only mild health problems (ASA I or II)
- You do not have any uncontrolled serious medical conditions
- You do not have any neurological diseases that affect movement or feeling

This study compares two treatments—platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid (a lubricating injection)—for people with severe knee arthritis seen on MRI. The goal is to see which better reduces pain.
This trial tests whether a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) shot works better than a standard hyaluronic acid (“gel”) injection to reduce knee osteoarthritis pain. It may help people with ongoing knee pain choose the treatment that relieves symptoms more effectively.
This study tests whether platelet-rich plasma (a treatment made from your own blood) can reduce symptoms of knee osteoarthritis. It focuses on people with specific types of knee pain and X-ray findings, and compares against rules around current pain medicines and injections.
This trial tests whether combining two types of injections—platelet-rich plasma (a concentration of healing cells from your own blood) and hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant)—can reduce knee osteoarthritis pain and improve function over one year. You're eligible if you've already received or are about to receive these injections at Amiens University Hospital.
This trial compares three common injection treatments for knee osteoarthritis to see which one works best for pain relief. It tests a steroid, a dextrose solution, and platelet-rich plasma (a treatment made from your own blood).
This trial tests whether a combination of platelet-rich plasma (a concentrate from your own blood) and hyaluronic acid (a joint lubricant) helps reduce pain and improve function in people with knee arthritis. You may be eligible if you have moderate knee pain but your other knee is relatively pain-free.
