Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • VAS pain score

    The change from baseline in a Visual analog scale score for pain. The VAS scale uses a 100 mm line labelled at '0' with 'no pain' and '100' with 'worst pain'.

    Baseline, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

  • The reported adverse events

    Any adverse events reported by the patients during the study period and physical examination findings by the evaluator after injections and at each follow-up visit.

    1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • WOMAC, Likert Scale

    Baseline, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

  • VAS stiffness score

    Baseline, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

  • Timed Up-and-Go test (TUG)

    Baseline, 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

  • VAS satisfaction score

    1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months post-injection

Study Arms (2)

HYAJOINT Plus group

EXPERIMENTAL

The HYAJOINT Plus group received one intraarticular injection of 3 ml HYAJOINT Plus and be followed for 52 weeks. A single injection of HYAJOINT Plus was performed if criteria was met at 52 weeks, and a 4-weeks follow-up of adverse events was conducted.

Device: HYAJOINT Plus

Hyalgan group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The Hyalgan group received intraarticular injection of 2 ml Hyalgan for three continuously weeks and be followed for 52 weeks. A single injection of HYAJOINT Plus was performed if criteria was met at 52 weeks, and a 4-weeks follow-up of adverse events was conducted.

Device: Hyalgan

Interventions

Single-injection, 60 mg / 3 ml (2%) cross-linked hyaluronan

HYAJOINT Plus group
HyalganDEVICE

Three-injection, 20 mg / 2 ml (1%) linear hyaluronan

Hyalgan group
