ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring the use of a tissue graft to improve surgery for wrist osteoarthritis, a painful condition that affects the wrist joint. Researchers want to see if using a graft from a donor (called an allograft) can provide better stability and fewer side effects compared to synthetic materials like silicone. The study is currently looking for participants who are experiencing symptoms of wrist arthritis, particularly those with specific types of joint damage, and who are between the ages of 30 and 80.

If you or someone you know is interested in participating, the trial is open to both men and women who meet these age requirements and have not had previous surgery for wrist osteoarthritis. Participants will have the opportunity to contribute to important research that could help improve treatment options for this condition. Throughout the study, participants will receive close monitoring and care from the research team.
