Secretome vs hyaluronic acid for knee osteoarthritis
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares a new treatment called secretome (from stem cells) to a standard gel injection (sodium hyaluronate) for knee arthritis. It aims to see if secretome can better reduce pain and improve function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
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 tests whether an injection of stem cells (special cells that can help repair tissue) works better than a standard hyaluronic acid injection for knee osteoarthritis pain. Both treatments are injected into the knee to reduce pain and improve function.
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 using donor stem cells injected into the knee for people with moderate knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if these cells can reduce pain and improve function.
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.
