NCT02686047

Brief Summary

Viscosupplementation has been widely used for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA). There is no well controlled trial comparing one injection regimen of HA for the treatment of knee OA. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of one intraarticular injection of a novel crosslinked HA (HYAJOINT Plus) with Synvisc-One for the treatment of knee OA.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • VAS pain score

    the change from baseline in the VAS pain score over 6 months.

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • WOMAC, Likert Scale

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

  • Lequesne index

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

  • Timed Up-and-Go test (TUG)

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

  • Single-leg stance test (SLS)

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

  • satisfaction based on a 100 mm VAS

    at 1, 3 and 6 months postinjection

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

the HYAJOINT Plus group

EXPERIMENTAL

the HYAJOINT Plus group received one intraarticular injection of 3 ml HYAJOINT Plus (2% microbial fermented HA, 20 mg/ml).

Device: HYAJOINT Plus

The Synvisc-One group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The Synvisc-One group received one injection of 6 ml Synvisc-One (0.8% avian derived HA, 8 mg/ml).

Device: Synvisc-One

Interventions

The patients in the HYAJOINT Plus group received one intraarticular injection of 3 ml HYAJOINT Plus (2% microbial fermented HA, 20 mg/ml).

Also known as: Hyaluronic acid
the HYAJOINT Plus group

The Synvisc-One group received one injection of 6 ml Synvisc-One (0.8% avian derived HA, 8 mg/ml).

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • symptomatic knee OA with pain for at least 6 months, despite conservative treatment such as analgesics, NSAIDs and/or physical therapy
  • average pain on knee movement of 30 mm or greater on a 100-mm VAS
  • grade 2 or 3 knee OA according to the Kellgren-Lawrence grading system based on radiographs taken within the previous 6 months
  • Radiological evidence of bilateral knee OA was accepted if global pain VAS in the contralateral knee was less than 30 mm.

You may not qualify if:

  • previous orthopedic surgery on the spine or lower limbs
  • disabling OA of either hip or foot
  • knee instability, clinical apparent joint effusion or marked valgus/varus deformity
  • known allergy to avian proteins or HA products
  • women ascertained or suspected pregnancy or lactating
  • intraarticular injections within the past 6 months
  • infections or skin diseases around the target knee
  • any specific medical conditions (rheumatoid arthritis, hemiparesis, neoplasm, etc.) that would interfere with the assessments
