- Brief Summary
Preclinical trials in animal models have suggested that the estimated dose of TD0015 in clinical presents no safety concerns.The investigational product is TD0015 pilulae, which is based on the traditional prescription named "Độc hoạt tang ký sinh thang" (Thien Kim Phuong).
The traditional prescription has the effect of circulating blood in the tendons and bones to bring out evil spirits, blood tonic, kidney tonic to prevent recurrence of diseases and against joint degeneration, joint deformation, muscle atrophy, stiffness to recover normal joint function.
- Detailed Description
The study objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TD0015 pilulae to determine the optimal dose for investigational product. Phase II analyzes is performed on 90 patients and based on the results of phase II to adjust sample size and study design (if applicable) for phase III.
The trial lasts for \~ 30 months with 6 subject visits (from T0 to T5) and is conducted in National Hospital of Traditional Medicine (Hanoi, Vietnam).
Screening procedure occurs at T0 visit, followed by T1 (15+/-3 days), T2 (30+/-3 days), T3 (45+/-3 days), T4 (60+/-3 days) and T5 (90+/-3 days). The telephone contact visits are performed every 2 weeks by Investigators There are 2 levels of dosages: estimated dose - 5g (arm 1) and 1.5 times (arm 2) of estimated dose - 7.5g. There is also another arm using placebo, thus the trial have 3 arms in total.
As for 3 arms, patients is allowed to use oral NSAIDs (meloxicam 7,5mg x 1-2 tablets/day) when pain is severe.
Treatment time is 60 days. IP is used after a meal, 1 pack/time x 2 times/day.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change from baseline on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthrities Index) WOMAC to evaluate the level of symptoms Day 15th, day 30th, day 45th, day 60th and day 30th after end of study WOMAC was scored by investigator in visits (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5) and compared with T0
Change from baseline in Pain Scores on the Visual Analog Scale day 15th, day 30th, day 45th, day 60th and day 30th after end of study VAS scale: 0 = no pain \| 0--\>2: mild \| 2--\>4: moderate \| 4--\> 6: severe \| 6-\>8: extreme \| 8--\>10: untolerable
Evaluate outcome of treatment according to VAS scale:
* Very Good: 0
* Good: 1 - 4
* Average: 5 - 7
* Weak: \>8Change in symptoms severity was reported by patient on the Lequesne Index day 15th, day 30th, day 45th, day 60th and day 30th after end of study Lequesne Index at prior and after treatment (day 15th, day 30th, day 45th, day 60th and day 30th after end of study).
Percentage of patients taking rescue medication 90 days 3 Arms were allowed to use oral NSAIDs (meloxicam 7,5 mg x 1-2 tablets/day) when pain was severe. All NSAIDs in the study need to be documented in detail
