TREAT OA Translational Research in Europe – Applied Technologies for Osteoarthritis

Coordinator: KING'S COLLEGE LONDON (UK)

TREAT-OA will address the need for better treatment and diagnostics for osteoarthritis (OA) - the most common cause of disability in Europe. Currently there are no drugs that can cure, reverse or halt the disease. Nor are there yet reliable clinical biochemical markers for diagnosis or prognosis which is an impediment to the management of OA, costs of therapeutic trials and the development of disease modifying drugs. TREAT-OA represents a large-scale collaborative, integrated, trans-disciplinary project utilising a resource of 28,000 OA phenotyped subjects with available genome-wide associati…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €11.9M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5.5 years from 2008-01-01 to 2013-06-30.
