The study will identify the efficacy of Apitox, purified honeybee toxin, in 330 patients with diagnosed osteoarthritis of the knee. The subjects will be evaluated for relief of pain using Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and Physician and Patient Global Assessments and primary efficacy measure of relief of pain and inflammation over a 12 week treatment period after randomization into the trial. Secondary efficacy is improvement of mobility Treatment effect will be compared in a 2-1 Apitox vs active control

The purpose of this study is to determine the surgical and clinical outcomes of patients receiving total knee replacement with the same implant using two different types of cutting guides during surgery: 1. Standard knee cutting guides; 2. MRI generated patient specific custom cutting guides. Both types of cutting guides used in this study are registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are routinely used for knee replacement surgery. However, it is unknown if one type of cutting guide has risks or benefits over the other.
The investigators will study how well knee joint prostheses become fixed to the bone when patients get teriparatide, compared to placebo. Measurements will use high resolution 3D radiography (radiostereometry, RSA).
The purpose of this exploratory randomised trial is to study the effect of pulsatile cupping in osteoarthritis of the knee compared to waiting list control.
