The Effects of Patient and Visit Characteristics on Health Outcomes in Knee Osteoarthritis
NCT06574191 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand the patient and clinic visit characteristics that affect health outcomes for individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA) pain using topical diclofenac gel. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What baseline patient characteristics predict response to topical diclofenac? * Does patient physiology during the study visit predict response to topical diclofenac? * Do study visit characteristics predict response to topical diclofenac? Participants will: * attend 2 study visits to complete study questionnaires and have blood drawn * apply topical diclofenac to their knee for 8 weeks * complete biweekly questions about knee pain and diclofenac use between study visits

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06574191
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06574191 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 220 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of California, Davis, which has 653 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Knee Osteoarthritis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Topical Diclofenac gel 1% is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06574191 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include California. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
