In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Gonarthrosis is a chronic pathology affecting the knee joint and tissues. It is characterized by progressive degeneration of articular cartilage, bone and surrounding structures. Diagnosis is based on clinical, biological and radiological criteria. When knee osteoarthritis becomes symptomatic, it leads to pain associated with stiffness and functional discomfort, impacting on patients' quality of life. Patients become sedentary and isolated, which has cardiovascular and psychological consequences, with a proven excess mortality rate. To date, there are no curative treatments for gonarthrosis. Available treatments are generally aimed at relieving pain, improving joint function and slowing disease progression. Therapeutic approaches most often combine non-pharmacological treatments such as dietary measures, regular physical activity and therapeutic education, with pharmacological treatmen
