NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline to Week 12 in WOMAC Pain Score (Intent-to-treat Set)Baseline and 12-week

To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 patch treatment compared with HP-5000 placebo patch treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score from baseline to week 12.

Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of five items. The total score ranges from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome.
