Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to verify the superiority of 16 weeks of MT-5547 treatment to placebo, as evidenced by the WOMAC pain score (the efficacy outcome measure), in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip. Additional objectives of the study are to investigate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of MT-5547 in long-term use.


Description:

The blind will be maintained, including for the study sponsor, until the key code is opened after the data have been fixed for all subjects in Week 24. In addition, in order to eliminate any bias that could affect the study assessments, to the extent possible, the blind will be maintained with respect to the study site and the subject even after the opening of the study sponsor key code.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary WOMAC Pain Score (Change From Baseline at Week 16) The WOMAC is a scale that is used to assess the activities of daily living in osteoarthritis, the WOMAC pain subscale score was defined as the average of 5 items (during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable), where higher scores indicated worse pain. Baseline to Week 16
Secondary WOMAC Physical Function Score (Change From Baseline at Week 16) The WOMAC physical function subscale score was defined as the average of 17 items(the level of difficulty of activities of daily living: stair use, rising from sitting, standing, bending, walking, getting in and out of a car, shopping, putting on and taking off socks, rising from bed, lying in bed, getting in and out of the bath, sitting, getting on and off the toilet, heavy household duties, light household duties). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no difficulty) to 10(extremely difficult), where higher scores indicated worse function limitation. Baseline to Week 16
Secondary WOMAC Pain Score (Change From Baseline at Each Assessment Time Point) The WOMAC is a scale that is used to assess the activities of daily living in osteoarthritis, the WOMAC pain subscale score was defined as the average of 5 items (during walking, using stairs, in bed, sitting or lying, and standing). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable), where higher scores indicated worse pain. Baseline to Week 68
Secondary WOMAC Physical Function Score (Change From Baseline at Each Assessment Time Point) The WOMAC physical function subscale score was defined as the average of 17 items(the level of difficulty of activities of daily living: stair use, rising from sitting, standing, bending, walking, getting in and out of a car, shopping, putting on and taking off socks, rising from bed, lying in bed, getting in and out of the bath, sitting, getting on and off the toilet, heavy household duties, light household duties). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no difficulty) to 10(extremely difficult), where higher scores indicated worse function limitation. Baseline to Week 68
Secondary WOMAC Stiffness Score (Change From Baseline at Each Assessment Time Point) The WOMAC stiffness subscale score was defined as the average of 2 items(after first waking and later in the day). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no stiffness) to 10(extremely stiffness), where higher scores indicated worse stiffness. Baseline to Week 68
Secondary WOMAC Total Score (Change From Baseline at Each Assessment Time Point) The WOMAC total subscale score was defined as the average of 24 items(5 pain subscale items, 17 physical functioning subscale items, and 2 stiffness subscale items). The participants assessed the past 48 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale, from 0 (no stiffness) to 10(extremely stiffness), where smaller values being better. Baseline to Week 68
Secondary Patient Global Assessment (PGA) (Change From Baseline at Each Assessment Time Point) Patient Global Assessment(PGA) was a measure whereby the participant assessed global improvement in OA using the 5-level scale(1=very well; 2=well; 3=fair; 4=poor; and 5=very poor). Baseline to Week 68
Secondary Number of Participants With Adverse Events and Adverse Drug Reactions Baseline to Week 68 (Treatment period=48 weeks, Post-treatment Observation Period=20weeks)
Secondary Number of Participants With a Joint Replacement Procedure is Scheduled All the Joint Replacement surgeries that were performed within 20 weeks from the day after the end date of the treatment period were reported and tabulated in this study in order to assess the outcome of joint damage regardless of the presence or absence of related adjudicated arthropathy. The subjects who were going to undergo JR surgery were to be withdrawn from study treatment. Baseline to Week 68
