Overview
Brief Summary
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of ASKC200 in subjects with OA of the knees and determine the phase II recommended dose. Assigned doses will be applied for 60 minutes on each of four consecutive days.
Detailed Description
Subjects will be randomized to one of the two Arms in this study: 5% ASKC200 or 1% ASKC200. All subjects will receive 4 consecutive days of treatment and will then be followed up until the Day 34 visit. The NRS score of weekly average of average daily pain intensity (WAADPI) of the study knee should ≥ 5 and the NRS score of WAADPI of the contralateral knee should \< 4 at screening. Data will be collected from Day 1 through Day 5 and then again on Days 19 and 34 for efficacy, tolerability, and safety measures.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Safety:Incidence of adverse events（AEs）
Time Frame: 34 days
All adverse medical events occurring after the subject receives the investigational drug, which may be manifested as symptoms, signs, diseases, or abnormalities in laboratory tests, but may not necessarily have a causal relationship with the investigational drug.
Secondary Outcomes

- Efficacy:Remission ratio of study knee according to NRS score(Day 19, Day 34)
- Efficacy:Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Score From Baseline(Day 19, Day 34)
- Efficacy:Change in patients clinical general impression (PCGI-C)(Day 19, Day 34)
- Efficacy:The use of acetaminophen(34 days)
- Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) for ASKC200(Day1-Day5)
