Knee artery embolization for osteoarthritis pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether blocking certain arteries in the knee can relieve pain from osteoarthritis. If you have moderate to severe knee pain that hasn't improved with other treatments, this procedure might be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis and have X-ray evidence of it (grades 1 to 3).
- You have had moderate to severe knee pain for at least 6 months (pain score of 5 or higher on a 0-10 scale).
- You have tried at least 3 months of other treatments like pain relievers, physical therapy, or knee injections without enough relief.
- You do not have severe arthritis (grade 4) or a replaced knee joint.
- You are not pregnant and do not have conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, infection, bleeding problems, or kidney issues.

This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure to block small blood vessels in the knee, which may reduce pain from osteoarthritis. It's for people with ongoing knee pain even after standard treatments like medication or physical therapy.
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization to reduce pain in people with knee osteoarthritis that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if blocking certain blood vessels can relieve pain and help you avoid or delay knee replacement surgery.
This study looks at whether blocking small blood vessels in the knee (genicular artery embolisation) can reduce pain from knee osteoarthritis when other non-surgical treatments haven't helped. It also checks safety and whether people can tolerate the imaging tests needed for the procedure.
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization, which blocks small blood vessels around the knee to reduce pain from moderate arthritis. It may help people whose knee pain hasn't improved with medications.
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization for people with knee osteoarthritis who have not found enough relief from other treatments. It aims to see if imaging can help predict who will benefit most.
This study tests a procedure that blocks tiny arteries in the knee to reduce pain from severe arthritis. It is for people who cannot have knee replacement surgery because of other health issues.
