A Decentralized Clinical Study Evaluating the Effectiveness of Two Different Doses of MyCondro™ on Physical Mobility and Joint Health

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Joint Health

In brief

This study evaluates the effect of two different doses of a consumer-grade product, MyCondro™, on individuals experiencing mobility issues related to knee osteoarthritis. The primary goal is to measure improvements in overall joint health and mobility by tracking changes in participants' total WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) scores from the beginning to the end of the trial. Additionally, the study aims to assess secondary outcomes, including the product's impact on pain, stiffness, knee function, patient-reported improvement, inflammatory blood markers (CRP), and daily physical activity.
