This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a medical device called MD-Small Joints Collagen Medical Device — a collagen-based injection — to see if it can help reduce pain and improve thumb function in people with osteoarthritis at the base of the thumb (where it meets the hand). Researchers will give participants five injections over five weeks and track how much pain improves and how well their thumb works at different time points over 16 weeks.
Arthritis at the thumb base is painful and can make everyday activities like gripping and pinching difficult. This trial exists to test whether this treatment can offer relief and restore function for people with this condition.

You would receive one injection at your first visit, then return weekly for four more injections (five total over five weeks), each delivering 2ml of the collagen-based treatment into and around your thumb joint. You would have follow-up visits at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, and 16 weeks after starting treatment to measure your pain levels and thumb function. The entire study takes about four months from start to finish.
