Minneapolis, Minnesota
The need for exploration of more definitive and cost effective non-arthroplasty treatments of osteoarthritis (OA) has been demonstrated by the orthopedic and health economic research.
Embolotherapy of neovessels associated with OA joints has been shown to be promising in patients with knee OA. There is a need for level one evidence drawn from randomized clinical trials to prove the safety, feasibility and efficacy of knee embolotherapy compared to standard of care.
This randomized pilot study will assign 10 patients with mild-moderate OA to undergo geniculate artery embolization plus standard of care (defined in this study as: physical therapy and oral anti-inflammatory medications, with a maximum of 1 joint injection at the time of enrollment) and 10 patients to receive only medical standard of care (also having had a maximum of 1 joint injection prior to enrollment). The goal of this pilot study is to obtain preliminary estimates of safety and efficacy of embolotherapy to provide sustained symptom control and modify disease progression in patients with mild to moderate knee OA.

Genicular Artery Embolization for Osteoarthritis
Chicago, Illinois
Genicular Artery Embolization for Reducing Pain in Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Randomized Sham-Controlled Study (SHAM-PAIN) is a NIH-NIAMS funded project designed to assess enrollment feasibility and detect any differences between GAE and a similar sham intervention in reducing KOA-related pain at 3 months as measured by the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) pain subscore. Additionally, this study aims to determine the magnitude of difference in pain response between GAE and sham to adequately power a larger, more definitive randomized sham-controlled trial (RCT). The influence of psychosocial and psychocognitive factors, changes in analgesic use, and conditions of knee joint cartilage and effusion will similarly be explored to determine their impacts on perceived pain response to GAE.

Artery Embolization for Knee Osteoarthritis
Santa Monica, California
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine whether genicular artery embolization (GAE) is an effective way to treat knee pain from osteoarthritis. Pain from arthritis is often due to underlying inflammation in the joint. The inflammation is associated with increased abnormal blood flow going to the specific area of pain. If the investigator can reduce the blood flow, the inflammation can be reduced and the pain can be controlled.
The GAE procedure is an experimental procedure to decrease the blood flow (embolize) to the specific region of the knee that is causing the pain. This will be done by infusing microscopic spheres into the specific blood vessel (genicular artery) supplying the area of pain in the knee. This is done through a procedure which is called an angiogram, which is done entirely through a pinhole at the creased of the thigh, using twilight (conscious) sedation.
The investigators have already completed an initial trial at UCLA, and shown that this procedure is safe and effective. The purpose of this new trial is to compare outcomes of people undergoing the GAE procedure to those who do not undergo the procedure. A total of 100 patients will be enrolled, and 2/3 of the patients will be randomly selected to undergo the GAE procedure. 1/3 will not undergo the procedure. This is known as a randomized trial. During the trial, all subjects will also get MRIs and fluid withdrawn from their knee joints at various timepoints in order to precisely figure out how the procedure works on a closer (microscopic) level.

Artery Embolization vs Nerve Ablation for Knee Osteoarthritis
Kingston, Ontario
The genicular artery embolization vs nerve ablation intervention (GENI) knee OA study is a three-arm randomized controlled trial to evaluate symptoms of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in patients after receiving one of three interventions: sham procedure, geniculate artery embolization (GAE) or genicular nerve phenol nerve ablation (PNA).
The main question\[s\] the study aims to answer are:
* Does GAE or genicular nerve PNA result in OA symptom alleviation compared to sham procedure?
* Are there molecular or imaging biomarkers that aid in predicting treatment response for GAE or genicular nerve PNA?
Subjects (N=150) patients with knee OA, resistant to non-surgical treatment for at least 3 months will be randomized 1:1:1 to either after GAE, genicular nerve PNA or sham procedure. Clinical outcomes will be measured using Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) for pain completed at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months and then every 6 months for either two years or until the time of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery.

Artery Embolization for Knee Pain
New York, New York
Single-arm, single-center, no sham or placebo, prospective pilot trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter arterial embolization in patients with persistent knee pain resistant to conservative management for at least 9 months after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Eligible participants will receive geniculate artery embolization (GAE) using Embozene™ Color-Advanced Microspheres. Patients will be followed up for a total of 24 months after GAE.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.How do clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length is 12 months.How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.Do I need to be insured to participate in a medical study ?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.What are the newest clinical trials ?
Most recently, we added Genicular Artery Embolization for Osteoarthritis, Artery Embolization for Knee Pain and Artery Embolization vs Nerve Ablation for Knee Osteoarthritis to the Power online platform.Popular Searches
