Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain score at 3 months

    The change from baseline of the WOMAC Pain score at 3 months between Allocetra and Placebo. Total Pain score ranges from 0 (No pain) to 50 (Extreme pain).

    3 months.

  • Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) Function score at 3 months

    The change from baseline for the WOMAC Function score at 3 months between Allocetra and Placebo. Total Function score ranges from 0 (No difficulty) to 170 (Extreme difficulty).

    3 months.

  • Primary Safety Endpoint

    Incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AEs) up to 6 months. AE incidence will be represented as % per study group and AE severity will be represented as mild, moderate or severe.

    Day 0 to 6 months.

  • Index knee pain assessed during the screening period and following wash-out of pain medications.
  • Willingness to abstain from prohibited medications/treatments during the trial.

  • Severe or end-stage osteoarthritis of the index knee.
  • Clinically significant structural abnormalities or instability of the index knee.
  • Recent major injury, surgical procedure, or intra-articular treatment in the index knee.
  • Any known history of infection or tumor of the index knee, or active infection at the intended injection site.
  • Any known history of inflammatory arthropathy or crystal-deposition disease.
  • Any severe systemic cartilage, bone, or musculoskeletal disorder that may interfere with study outcomes.
  • Clinically significant widespread pain syndromes.
  • Immunosuppressive therapy, clinically significant immunodeficiency, or active infection.
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) \>40 kg/m²
  • Use of medications that may interfere with pain assessment or study outcomes.
