What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study looks at whether a 12-week group exercise program called Les Mills Thrive can change how muscles work and improve strength, balance, and symptoms in 42 older adults with knee osteoarthritis. Participants will attend weekly classes that include flexibility, strength, and coordination exercises. Researchers will measure muscle activity, balance, and symptom changes before and after the program.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Les Mills Thrive group exercise class
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, group-based exercise program to help manage knee osteoarthritis symptoms and improve mobility.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with no control group, so results may not be generalizable. The exercise may not change muscle activation patterns or symptoms for everyone.

Participants

About 42 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Expected to finish

Jun 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have received a diagnosis of knee OA from a physician and/or meet the American College of Rheumatology Clinical Classification Criteria for Osteoarthritis of the knee. The American College of Rheumatology criteria specify that a participant needs to have pain and fulfill three of the following six items: 1) aged 50 years or older, 2) no early morning stiffness or morning stiffness less than 30 minutes, 3) crepitus, 4) bony tenderness, 5) bony enlargement, 6) no palpable warmth * They must pass the Get Active Questionnaire to ensure that they are safe to begin an exercise program (determined via recruitment email). Exclusion Criteria: * i) severe knee trauma, knee surgery, or intraarticular knee joint injections in the previous six months, ii) active synovitis, iii) concurrent neurological (i.e. Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's dementia, or polyneuropathy), endocrine (i.e., diabetes mellitus) and/or vestibular disorders which may affect balance, iv) chronic disease that may put them at risk during the exercise classes (i.e., history of heart failure, stroke, chronic obstructive lung disease), v) uncorrected visual impairment which may affect balance, or vi) an inflammatory rheumatic disease (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and chronic reactive arthritis).
