This is mainly due to the lack of appropriate outcome measures that can robustly identify patients that can benefit from a specific therapy. Different phenotypes of OA may benefit from different types of treatment. Therefore, novel markers to identify selected phenotypes of osteoarthritis may encourage drug development.\n\nObjective: To prospectively describe in detail pre-identified progressing phenotypes of patients with knee OA by use of conventional and novel clinical, imaging, and biochemical (bio)markers, and to validate and refine a predictive model for these (and new) progressing phenotypes based on these markers.\n\nStudy design: APPROACH is an exploratory, European, five-centre, 2-year prospective follow-up, cohort study, with extensive measurements. In this study patients are treated according to regular care by their own physician with no study related treatment prescribed. Study related diagnostic and/or monitoring procedures are applied to the patients.\n\nStudy population: Patients with tibiofemoral knee osteoarthritis, according to the clinical ACR classification criteria, pre-identified based on demographic (e.g. age), clinical (e.g. Pain NRS) and tissue structure (e.g. radiographic joint space width) parameters.\n\nMain study parameters/endpoints: Joint tissue structure based on radiographs, MRI, and biochemical (bio)markers as well as symptoms (pain, function) and quality of life by questionnaires.\n\nSecondary parameters: A multitude of (novel and conventional) clinical, imaging, and biochemical parameters related to osteoarthritis.\n\nNature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The participants will not have any direct benefit from their participation in this study other than that their OA is maximally diagnosed and followed in detail for up to 2 years (screening, baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months).', 'detailedDescription': 'Patients will stay in the hospital for 4-5 hours per visit (for screening about 30 min) for physical examination, blood draw, MRI scans, radiographs of knees and hands (only at baseline and 24 months), CT scan of the knee (only at baseline and 24 months), low radiation whole body CT scan (only at baseline and 24 months), HandScan (only at baseline and 24 months), motion analysis, and performance based tests. They will be asked to fill out questionnaires about knee, hand and hip osteoarthritis, and about general health and pain. The patient council in the consortium indicated that the load is acceptable. The patient council will be involved in the execution of the study. The assumed risk is minimal for an individual patient and minimal compared to the contribution to the development of knowledge of their disease. These risks include minimal events due to blood sampling itself (such as hematoma or localized bleeding), radiation exposure by radiographic imaging techniques (with a minimal increased healthcare risk), and exposure to MRI techniques (without known risks and without use of contrast agents).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients with tibiofemoral knee osteoarthritis, according to the clinical ACR classification criteria, pre-identified based on demographic (e.g. age), clinical (e.g. Pain NRS) and tissue structure (e.g. radiographic joint space width) parameters.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
