Osteoarthritis Drug Pipeline Analysis Report 2025

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by the breakdown of cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. It accounts for around 528 million cases globally. There is a significant unmet clinical need for better therapies to treat osteoarthritis, as current treatments, such as pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs, only provide limited relief. Furthermore, the growing focus on disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOADs) and regenerative therapeutics is likely to support pipeline growth in the coming years, offering hope for more effective treatment options.

Report Coverage

The Osteoarthritis Drug Pipeline Insight Report by the publisher gives comprehensive insights into osteoarthritis therapeutics currently undergoing clinical trials. It covers various aspects related to the details of each of these drugs under development for osteoarthritis. The osteoarthritis report assessment includes the analysis of over 100 pipeline drugs and 50+ companies. The osteoarthritis pipeline landscape will include an analysis based on efficacy and safety measure outcomes published for the trials, including their adverse effects on patients suffering from the condition, and alignment with osteoarthritis treatment guidelines to ensure optimal care practices.

The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis Drug Pipeline Outlook

Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative joint disease caused by cartilage breakdown and inflammation, leading to joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. The osteoarthritis drug pipeline focuses on disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs (DMOADs), anti-inflammatory agents, and regenerative therapies aimed at slowing disease progression, reducing pain, and improving joint function.

Osteoarthritis treatment aims to alleviate pain and improve function. Common approaches include pain relievers, anti-inflammatory medications, corticosteroid injections, and physical therapy. In severe cases, joint replacement surgery may be necessary. Recent advancements in biologics and regenerative treatments also show promise in addressing the root causes of osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis Epidemiology

The osteoarthritis (OA) drug pipeline is evolving to address the high global burden of the disease. Osteoarthritis affects approximately 528 million people globally, with over 50 million cases in the United States. In the United Kingdom, knee osteoarthritis impacts 5.4 million people, while India reports a prevalence of 22% to 39%. This growing incidence underscores the urgent need for advanced therapeutics in the pipeline.

Osteoarthritis - Emerging Drugs Profile

This section covers the detailed analysis of each drug under multiple phases, including phase I, phase II, phase III, phase IV, and emerging drugs for osteoarthritis. It includes product description, trial ID, study type, drug class, mode of administration, and recruitment status of osteoarthritis drug candidates.

Drug: TG-C

The Phase 3 study, sponsored by Kolon TissueGene, Inc., aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TG-C in subjects with Kellgren/Lawrence Grade 2 or 3 osteoarthritis of the knee. The study, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, is expected to be completed by March 2026 with approximately 531 participants. It will assess both symptomatic relief and disease-modifying effects of TG-C, administered via intra-articular injection.

Drug: LNA043 Dosing Regimen A

The study sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals aims to examine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of LNA043 in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The Phase 2 study will evaluate the optimal dosing regimen of LNA043. The study is expected to be completed by October 2027, with 583 participants enrolled.

Drug: SAR446959

The drug SAR446959, sponsored by Sanofi, is currently undergoing a Phase 1 study to assess its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in participants with knee osteoarthritis. The study aims to evaluate the effects of ascending single intra-articular doses of SAR446959. It is expected to be completed by December 2025, with an estimated 32 participants involved.
