Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of micronized dehydrated human amnion chorion membrane as compared to the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP placebo control for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis

Description:

Each subject will receive 1 injection (micronized dHACM or placebo) and be evaluated for efficacy and safety during a 12-month observation period. A second injection (open-label access to micronized dHACM) will be offered to all subjects at the 180-day, 270-day, and 365-day time points, it may only be used once. Blinding for the first injection treatment allocation will be maintained until the end of the study.

Subjects who receive the open-label access treatment will continue to be followed for 180 days after this second injection, regardless of the time at which treatment was received.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Exploratory Endpoint: Change From Baseline in the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for Pain at 270, and 365 Days	VAS: 0 to 100 mm horizontal visual analog scale with a higher score indicating greater pain	Up to 365 days
Other	Exploratory Endpoint: Change From Baseline in the WOMAC Scores at 270 and 365 Days	Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) evaluation of Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis. Self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 questions divided into 3 subscales: Pain (5 questions); Stiffness (2 questions); Physical Function (17 questions); The test questions are scored on a scale of 0-4, which correspond to: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4).; The scores for each subscale are summed up, with a possible score range of 0-20 for Pain, 0-8 for Stiffness, and 0-68 for Physical Function. A sum of the scores for all three subscales gives a total WOMAC score, with a possible total score range of 0-96.; Higher scores on the WOMAC indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.

Other	Exploratory Endpoint: Change From Baseline in the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for Satisfaction at 90, 180, 270 and 365 Days	VAS: 0 to 100 mm horizontal visual analog scale with a higher score indicating greater satisfaction	Up to 365 days
Other	Exploratory Endpoint: Change From Baseline in the KOOS Scores at 90, 180, 270, and 365 Days	Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS): 5 subscales scored on a 5 point scale where the final score is summed and transformed into a 100 point scale with a higher score representing no disability and a lower score representing extreme disability	Up to 365 days
Primary	Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Change From Baseline in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for Pain at 90 Days	Visual Analog Scale (VAS): 0 to 100 mm horizontal visual analog scale with a higher score indicating greater pain	90 days
