Platelet-rich plasma for knee osteoarthritis
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests two different ways of preparing platelet-rich plasma (a treatment made from your own blood) to see which one works better for knee osteoarthritis. You'll also do physical therapy as part of the study.

This trial tests if platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections into and around the knee joint can reduce pain and improve function for people with moderate knee osteoarthritis who haven't gotten relief from other treatments.
This trial compares two types of injections (PRP and ACS) to see which one works better for knee osteoarthritis. It may help people with knee pain who have not had these injections recently.
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 whether platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections can help knee arthritis in both younger and older adults. If you have knee pain from arthritis and haven't had other treatments recently, you might be able to join.
This study tests whether injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from your own blood can help knee pain caused by osteoarthritis or injuries to the cartilage and meniscus. It may be an option if you are between 20 and 60 years old and have not had recent steroid shots or certain health problems.
