  • Able to replace all current pain medications with acetaminophen for use as needed during the duration of the study [subject should be able to withhold all rescue medication (e.g., acetaminophen) use for at least 48 hours prior to all WOMAC pain score assessments at study.
  • Change in the total WOMAC pain subscale score for the target knee ≤ 2 from Visit 2 (Start of Placebo Run-in period) to Visit 3 (Baseline/Randomization).
  • Subjects who can read and understand the WOMAC pain sub-scale.
  • Patients who are able to understand the investigational nature of this study and able to provide a written informed consent form
