Brief summary

This double-blind, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) will evaluate the efficacy of a single dose of Autologous Protein Solution (APS) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee who have failed at least 1 conservative osteoarthritis (OA) therapy (e.g. physiotherapy, simple analgesics, intra-articular injection).

Change From Baseline to 6 Months in Pain Measured With WOMAC Questionnaire (Day 1, Week 2, Month 1, 3 and 6)6 monthsThe WOMAC LK 3.1 questionnaire is a validated tool commonly used for assessing knee pain, stiffness, and function. The WOMAC LK 3.1 questionnaire has 24 items that the patient addresses about the knee: 5 items on the pain subscale, 2 on the stiffness subscale, and 17 on the physical function subscale. Each item is answered on a 5-point Likert scale, with grading from 0 (none or never) to 4 (extreme or always). A higher score indicates worse pain, stiffness, or functional limitation. The WOMAC pain subscale consisted of five questions scored from 0 to 4. The pain has a range of 0 (no pain) to 20 (maximal pain).

The WOMAC LK 3.1 questionnaire has 24 items that the patient addresses about the knee: 5 items on the pain subscale, 2 on the stiffness subscale, and 17 on the physical function subscale. Each item is answered on a 5-point Likert scale, with grading from 0 (none or never) to 4 (extreme or always). A higher score indicates worse pain, stiffness, or functional limitation. The WOMAC Physical Functioning subscale consisted of seventeen questions scored from 0 to 4.

General Health Measured With Short Form-36 (SF-36) Subscale General Health Questionnaire at Day 1, 6 Months and 12 Months

The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability.

Pain as Measured With Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Subscale Pain at Day 1, Week 2, 1 Month, 3 Months, 6 Months and 12 Months

The KOOS questionnaire is a commonly used instrument to assess the patient's opinion about their knee and associated problems. KOOS consists of 5 subscales: Pain (9 questions), Symptoms (7 questions), Function in daily living (ADL) (17 questions), Function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) (5 questions) and knee related Quality of Life (QOL) (4 questions). The previous week is used as the time period for answering the questions. A higher score on the KOOS questionnaire indicates no problems, and 0 indicates extreme problems. Each subscale score is calculated independently. The mean score of the individual items of each subscale is calculated and divided by 4 (the highest possible score for a single answer option). on). Traditionally in orthopedics, 100 indicates no problems and 0 indicates extreme problems. The normalized score is transformed to meet this standard.

The Visual Analogue Scale is a common tool for measuring general pain. A 100 mm line is marked from 0 to 10 in 10 mm increments. Knee pain severity is indicated by drawing a vertical mark at the point on the line that best represents the severity of pain. No pain is indicated by the 0 at the far left, and the worst possible pain is indicated by the 100 at the far right.

The WOMAC LK 3.1 questionnaire has 24 items that the patient addresses about the knee: 5 items on the pain subscale, 2 on the stiffness subscale, and 17 on the physical function subscale. Each item is answered on a 5-point Likert scale, with grading from 0 (none or never) to 4 (extreme or always). A higher score indicates worse pain, stiffness, or functional limitation. The WOMAC Stiffness subscale consisted of two questions scored from 0 to 4. The Stiffness has a range of 0(no stiffness) to 8 (maximal stiffness)

Symptoms Measured With Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Subscale Symptoms at Day 1, Week 2, 1 Month, 3 Months, 6 Months and 12 Months

The KOOS questionnaire is a commonly used instrument to assess the patient's opinion about their knee and associated problems. KOOS consists of 5 subscales: Pain (9 questions), Symptoms (7 questions), Function in daily living (ADL) (17 questions), Function in sport and recreation (Sport/Rec) (5 questions) and knee related Quality of Life (QOL) (4 questions). The previous week is used as the time period for answering the questions. A higher score on the KOOS questionnaire indicates no problems, and 0 indicates extreme problems. Each subscale score is calculated independently. The mean score of the individual items of each subscale is calculated and divided by 4 (the highest possible score for a single answer option). on). Traditionally in orthopedics, 100 indicates no problems and 0 indicates extreme problems. The normalized score is transformed to meet this standard.

Time frame: 12 months

Population: The 12 Month efficacy analyses were done on the mITT/PP analysis set.

Vitality Measured With Short Form-36 (SF-36) Subscale Vitality Questionnaire at Day 1, 6 Months and 12 Months

The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability.

Time frame: 12 Months

Population: The 12 Month efficacy analyses were done on the mITT/PP analysis set.
