Precision knee-saving treatment for knee osteoarthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a new precision system to treat knee arthritis by preserving your natural knee as much as possible. It is for people with mild-to-moderate inside knee pain and a specific type of cartilage (meniscus) problem, and aims to improve pain and function without replacing the whole knee.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 70 years old
- You have knee pain mainly on the inside of your knee that is mild to moderate, not severe
- Your knee has a mild bow-leg angle (between 5 and 15 degrees)
- An MRI shows that the inner shock absorber (meniscus) of your knee has shifted out of place more than 3 mm, and you can still straighten your knee fully (less than 10 degrees of stiffness)
- The outer part of your knee joint is healthy (no tears or damage)
- You have not had major knee trauma, infection, or surgery on that knee, and you don't have other inflammatory arthritis

This trial is testing different ways to correct the alignment of the shin bone (high tibial osteotomy) to find the best angle for relieving pain from osteoarthritis on the inner side of the knee. This surgery may help you by redistributing weight away from the damaged area.
This study compares two types of surgery to fix knee alignment in people with mild to moderate inner-knee arthritis and a bow-legged leg shape. The goal is to see which approach gives better pain relief and function.
This trial tests a treatment for people with knee arthritis affecting the inner and front parts of the knee. It aims to help relieve pain and improve function without needing a full knee replacement.
This study tests a new type of partial knee replacement where only the damaged bone and cartilage are replaced, instead of the whole knee. It aims to help people with severe knee arthritis keep an active lifestyle and delay or avoid a total knee replacement.
This trial compares two computer-assisted surgical methods for realigning the shinbone (high tibial osteotomy) to treat inner-knee arthritis. It aims to find which technique gives better results for pain and function.
This trial tests a new way to treat arthritis in the kneecap area using specially grown cartilage. If you have kneecap pain and haven't been helped by other treatments, this might be an option to discuss with your doctor.
