The city of Stanford, California, currently has 3 active clinical trials seeking participants for Osteoarthritis research studies.
The Effect of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells for Knee Osteoarthritis
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical and functional outcomes of patients with mild to moderate arthroscopically confirmed osteoarthritis between the following two groups: Partial fat pad harvest with Adipose-Derived Stem Cell (ADSC) transplantation with standard arthroscopic treatment consisting of: partial meniscectomy, cartilage stabilization, loose body removal and selective synovectomy. Standard arthroscopic treatment (above) without cell transplant.

Effects of Movement Retraining on Knee Loading in Individuals With Knee Osteoarthritis
Recruiting
This study investigates how well individuals with knee osteoarthritis can learn to alter their calf muscle activation using haptic biofeedback while walking and evaluates how these changes affect knee loading. Prior research has utilized musculoskeletal simulations to determine that reducing the activation of one of the calf muscles, the gastrocnemius, can have a large impact on reducing knee loading. However, this has not been tested in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. In this study, part... Read More
