This study will evaluate the efficacy of two doses of Intra-Articular Injection of Ampion™ in Adults with pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee.
A Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of two Doses of Intra-Articular Injection of Ampion™ in Adults with pain due to osteoarthritis of the knee. The primary trial objective is to evaluate whether there is greater efficacy of 10 mL Ampion™ versus 10 mL placebo than 4 mL Ampion™ versus 4 mL placebo intra-articular (IA) injection in improving knee pain, when applied to patients suffering from OA of the knee. The secondary trial objective include: the evaluation of the safety of an intra-articular injection of Ampion™ when applied to patients suffering from OA of the knee, evaluation of the efficacy of intra-articular injection of Ampion™ and placebo on stiffness and function when applied to patients suffering from OA of the knee and evaluation of responder status defined by the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Clinical Trials and Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OMERACT-OARSI) Criteria.

Change in Knee Pain
Mean Change in WOMAC A Pain (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index) score from Baseline to 12 weeks. 5-point Likert scale (0=none to 4=extreme). A negative difference constitutes a decrease in pain with a greater negative value indicating a greater reduction in pain.
Time frame: Scored at Baseline and 12 weeks
Change in Knee Function
Mean change in WOMAC C function score (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index) from Baseline to 12 weeks. 5-point Likert scale indicating limitation of function (0=none to 4=extreme). A greater negative value indicates a improvement in function.
Time frame: Scored at Baseline and 12 weeks.
Change in Knee Stiffness.
Mean Change in WOMAC B stiffness score from Baseline to 12 weeks. 5-point Likert scale (0=none to 4=extreme). A negative difference constitutes a reduction in stiffness.
Time frame: Scored at Baseline and 12 weeks.
Change in Patient's Global Assessment
Patients are asked the following question: "Considering all the ways in which your arthritis affects you, please indicate how you are doing." 5-point Likert scale (0 = very well, 1 = well, 2 = fair, 3 = poor, 4 = very poor). A negative value constitutes an improvement in patient's assessment of disease severity.
Time frame: Scored at Baseline and 12 weeks.
