Overview
Struggling with shoulder pain? Join an Osteoarthritis Research Study!
Living with the aches and pains of osteoarthritis, also known as OA, can feel like your body is working against you, especially if it cramps your active lifestyle. While there are some options for symptom management, they range from home remedies to surgery, and their effectiveness may vary from patient to patient.
Whether it’s you or someone you love living with OA, gaining a clearer picture of this condition is important for managing it, and clinical trials offer a pathway to do just that. The best tool is research.
By participating in a clinical trial, individuals with osteoarthritis can help researchers advance our understanding of rheumatic diseases and contribute to the development of new treatment strategies.
Take our short survey to see if you or a loved one may be a good fit. There is no obligation.
