  • Ability and willingness to use only acetaminophen as the analgesic (rescue) study medication

  • If subject has known chronic liver disease, the maximum dose of acetaminophen must not exceed 2 grams/day (2000 mg)
  • The subject must be willing and able to discontinue acetaminophen at least 24 hours prior to all study-specific visits
  • The study specific acetaminophen provided will only be used for knee pain.
  • Ability to perform procedures required of the pain index evaluations (unassisted walking 50 feet on a flat surface and going up and down stairs).
  • Willingness and ability to complete efficacy and safety questionnaires and ability to read and understand study instructions
  • Signed study-specific Subject Informed Consent Form

排除标准

  • Any major injury (including sports injuries) to the target knee within the 12 months prior to the Screening Visit
  • Any surgery to the target knee within the 12 months prior to the Screening Visit, or surgery to the contralateral knee or other weight-bearing joint if it will interfere with knee assessments

  • Significant anterior knee pain due to diagnosed isolated patella-femoral syndrome or chondromalacia in the target knee
  • Significant target knee joint infection or skin disorder/infection within the previous 6 months prior to study enrollment
  • Symptomatic OA of the hips, spine, or ankle, if it would interfere with the evaluation of the target knee
  • Known hypersensitivity to acetaminophen, EUFLEXXA™, or Phosphate buffered saline solution
  • Women of childbearing potential who are pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant, and those who do not agree to remain on an acceptable method of birth control throughout the entire study period
  • Recurrent medical history of severe allergic or immune-mediated reactions or other immune disorders
  • Vascular insufficiency of lower limbs or peripheral neuropathy severe enough to interfere with the study evaluation
  • Current treatment or treatment within the previous 2 years prior to the Screening Visit for any malignancy unless specific written permission is provided by the Sponsor (excluding basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin)
  • Active liver disease based on liver profile of AST, ALT, and conjugated bilirubin >2 times the upper limit of normal
  • Renal insufficiency based on serum creatinine >2.0 mg/dL
  • Any clinically significant laboratory value based on clinical history that the Investigator feels may affect the study evaluation
  • Any intercurrent chronic disease or condition that may interfere with the completion of the 6-month (or 12-month) follow-up of the study, such as liver disease, severe coronary disease, drug abuse, disordered mental state, or other clinically significant condition
  • Current alcoholism, and/or any known current addiction to pain medications
  • Any clinically significant finding that would place the patient at health risk, impact the study, or affect the completion of the study
  • Any psychiatric illness that would prevent comprehension of the details and nature of the study
  • Participation in any experimental drug or device study within the 6 months prior to the Screening Visit

结局指标

主要结局

Observed Pain Scores on 50-foot Walk Test During the Double-blind Study

时间窗: Weeks 0, 26

The level of pain is estimated by the participant following a walk of 50 feet in length which is observed by the investigator. Pain estimates were evaluated on a 100 millimeter visual analog scale. A score of 0 millimeters means there was no pain observed; a score of 100 millimeters means extreme pain was observed.

Percent Change From Baseline in Observed Pain Scores on 50-foot Walk Test During the Double-blind Study

时间窗: Weeks 0 and 26

The percent difference in participant pain recorded by the participant during a walk of 50 feet in length between the baseline (week 0) and week 26 scores. Scores are measured on a visual analog scale of 100 millimeters; a score of 0 millimeters meaning no pain was observed; a score of 100 millimeters meaning extreme pain was observed.

Shifts From Extension Study Baseline (Week 26) in Range of Motion Findings at Week 52

时间窗: weeks 26 and 52

Number of participants in various categories of target knee joint examination findings from baseline (week 26 pre-injection) to week 52. Range of motion indicates the flexibility of the knee, and is measured by the number of degrees between when the knee is hyper-extended and when the knee is flexed.

Shifts From Extension Study Baseline (Week 26) in Ratings of Knee Tenderness at Week 52

时间窗: weeks 26 and 52

Number of participants in various categories of target knee joint examination findings from baseline (week 26 pre-injection) to week 52. Tenderness of the knee was subjectively rated by participants as none, mild, moderate or severe.

Shifts From Extension Study Baseline (Week 26) in Ratings of Knee Local Warmth at Week 52

时间窗: weeks 26 and 52

Number of participants in various categories of target knee joint examination findings from baseline (week 26 pre-injection) to week 52. Local warmth of the target knee was recorded as Yes (warmth present) or No (knee was not warmer than expected).

Shifts From Extension Study Baseline (Week 26) in Ratings of Knee Redness at Week 52

时间窗: weeks 26 and 52

Number of participants in various categories of target knee joint examination findings from baseline (week 26 pre-injection) to week 52. Redness of the knee was subjectively rated as Yes (knee was red) and No (knee was not red).
