Brief summary

This is a double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FX006 in patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA) or shoulder adhesive capsulitis (AC).

Detailed description

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in separate cohorts of patients with a documented history of either glenohumeral OA or shoulder AC. Glenohumeral OA and shoulder AC patients will be randomized to receive a single intra-articular injection of either FX006 or placebo (saline) in a 1:1 ratio to the index shoulder with a 24-week Treatment Evaluation Period. Glenohumeral OA patients will be stratified by Baseline average daily shoulder pain with movement score according to the following classifications: 5.0 to \<7.0 or ≥7.0 to 9.0 (0 to 10 numeric rating scale \[NRS\]). Shoulder AC patients will be stratified by Baseline average daily shoulder pain with movement score according to the following classifications: 5.0 to \<7.0 or ≥7.0 to 9.0 (0 to 10 NRS), and by pain duration since onset (1 to 3 months, inclusive, or \>3 to ≤6 months). A Home Exercise Program will be implemented 3 days following injection for shoulder AC patients.

Time frame: Baseline to 8 weeks

Population: Due to the early termination of the study, this endpoint was not analyzed. Change from baseline in the weekly mean of the average daily shoulder pain with movement score is included in Outcome Measure 2

Secondary

Change From Baseline in the Range of Motion (ROM) of Active External Rotation at Week 12

Measured using a goniometer which is a device that measures ROM joint angles

Time frame: Baseline to 12 weeks

Population: All patients who received a dose of study drug assigned to the FX006 32 mg and the Placebo arm were included in the analysis.
