Osteoarthritis is a disorder affecting all joint tissues, including cartilage, subchondral bone, and synovium. Histological studies of synovial tissue of osteoarthritic joints showed that inflammation was common, 1 de Lange-Brokaar BJE Ioan-Facsinay A van Osch GJVM et al.

Methotrexate to treat hand osteoarthritis with synovitis (METHODS): an Australian, multisite, parallel-group, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trialTreatment of hand osteoarthritis and synovitis with 20 mg methotrexate for 6 months had a moderate but potentially clinically meaningful effect on reducing pain, providing proof of concept that methotrexate might have a role in the management of hand osteoarthritis with an inflammatory phenotype.
