Hyaluronic acid drink for early knee osteoarthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a daily drink with hyaluronic acid (a natural joint lubricant) to see if it can help delay knee pain in people with early osteoarthritis. If you qualify, it might offer a drug-free way to ease your knee discomfort.

This trial tests whether one injection of hyaluronic acid, a substance that helps lubricate joints, can reduce knee pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. If you have knee pain and are looking for a non-surgical option, this study might be a good fit.
This study tests whether a single injection of hyaluronic acid (a gel-like substance that helps cushion the knee) can improve knee pain and function over the long term. It's for people with mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis who haven't found enough relief from other treatments.
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 tests a gel made of hyaluronic acid (a natural lubricant) injected into the hip joint to reduce pain and improve movement. It is for people with moderate hip osteoarthritis who have had hip pain for more than 3 months.
