Embolization of knee arteries for osteoarthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure that blocks the blood supply to the knee joint to reduce pain from knee osteoarthritis. It is for people who have not found relief from usual treatments and want a non-surgical option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have knee osteoarthritis with X-ray changes that are not the most severe (grades 1-3).
- You have moderate to severe knee pain for at least 6 months.
- You have tried conservative treatments (painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapy, lifestyle changes, or joint injections) for at least 3 months without enough relief.
- You do not have conditions like inflammatory arthritis, previous knee replacement, severe circulation problems, bleeding disorders, kidney failure, pregnancy, or allergy to contrast dye.

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 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 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 new procedure called genicular artery embolization to treat knee pain from osteoarthritis. If you have moderate to severe knee pain and are not a candidate for knee replacement or other surgery, this treatment may help reduce pain and improve function.
This trial tests if a minimally invasive procedure that blocks small arteries can reduce pain and swelling in arthritic knees. It's for people with moderate knee osteoarthritis who still have pain after trying other treatments and are already considering knee replacement surgery.
