What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change of Pain Intensity compared to Baseline (VAS-slider)

    Evaluation of Pain Intensity by the Patient on a 10 cm VAS-slider. 10 cm equals the worst pain.

    Time frame: Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 84, Day 168, Day 252

  2. Change of Range of Motion compared to Baseline (Goniometer measurement)

    Assessment of the Range of Extension and Flexion of the Knee Joint using a Goniometer.

    Time frame: Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 84, Day 168

  3. Change of Subjective Therapy Evaluation (KOOS Questionnaire) compared to Baseline

    Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) to assess Stiffness, Pain, Function (daily living) and Quality of Life on a 5-point Likert scale.

    Time frame: Day 84, Day 168

  4. Change of Subjective Symptom Evaluation (Overall Impression on a scale from 1 to 5)

    The Change of Overall Subjective Symptom Evaluation on a scale from 1 (much improved) to 5 (much worse).

    Time frame: Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 84, Day 168, Day 252

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jan 2019 to primary completion in Jan 2023, 48 months.

Of 42 industry-sponsored observational studies under Osteoarthritis, Knee, half reached primary completion within 48 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 16 and three quarters within 165. This study's 48 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 215 studies reached it within 25 months; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 61.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 9, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
