Hyaluronic acid plus fibrinogen for knee arthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a combination of two natural substances—hyaluronic acid (a joint lubricant) and fibrinogen (a blood protein that helps healing)—given as an injection into the knee, can safely reduce pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. It is for Vietnamese patients who have not recently used certain painkillers or had other knee treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether a hyaluronic acid injection (a natural lubricant for joints) can reduce inflammation markers in the knee for people with osteoarthritis. It may be a good option if you have moderate knee pain that hasn't improved with other treatments.
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.
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to hyaluronic acid injections improves knee osteoarthritis pain and function better than hyaluronic acid alone. You may be eligible if you have moderate knee osteoarthritis and no other knee problems.
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 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 study tests if injecting Botox and hyaluronic acid into the knee joint can reduce pain and improve function in people with advanced knee osteoarthritis. It compares this combination to a standard treatment.
