Bio glue for fixing knee meniscus tears
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a medical bio glue to repair a torn meniscus in the knee. It may be a good option if you have a single tear and are otherwise healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have a tear in the meniscus (cushion) of one knee only.
- You can move your knee through its full range of motion.
- Your weight is within a healthy range (BMI below 32).
- You have no other knee conditions (like bad cartilage damage or multiple torn ligaments).
- You are not pregnant or planning pregnancy during the study.

This trial tests a surgical technique to fix a certain type of meniscus tear (called a root tear) by stitching it to the knee's posterior cruciate ligament. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients recover better.
This study tests a new surgical technique that uses a donor (allograft) bone-patellar tendon-bone graft to fix a torn ACL and also replaces the missing or damaged meniscus. It may help people whose knee problems haven't improved with other treatments and who are otherwise healthy enough for surgery.
This trial tests whether adding a fibrin clot to standard meniscus repair helps heal a torn knee cartilage better. You'd get surgery, then an MRI one year later to check healing.
This early-phase study tests whether AM3101 can improve healing of a meniscus tear in the knee. Participants must meet age, scan, and health-lab requirements, and they will be closely followed during recovery to check safety and benefit.
This trial tests a new surgical approach for a specific type of meniscus tear (the cartilage that cushions the knee) in people who have a mild bow-legged (varus) knee. It combines a small bone cut near the knee with arthroscopic repair to fix the tear.
This trial compares different treatments for knee osteoarthritis caused by a tear where the medial meniscus (the inner cushion of your knee) attaches to the bone. It aims to find the best approach to relieve pain and improve function in people with early to moderate arthritis.
