The Efficacy and Safety of Intraarticular Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyalgan) After Proximal Tibial Osteotomy in Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis Patients

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Knee Osteoarthritis
Interventions
Drug: Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyalgan)
Procedure: Osteotomy alone
Registration Number
NCT01267214
Lead Sponsor
TRB Chemedica
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Hyalgan after proximal tibial osteotomy in treatment of knee osteoarthritis patients. Normally, OA patients who were treated with osteotomy will not be treated with any SYSADOA after operation, even though their cartilage's not completely loss, so osteotomy plus HA injection should provide more benefit to patients than osteotomy alone.
