This is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single injection, 52-week study to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of a single intra-articular (IA) CNTX-4975-05 (capsaicin), compared to IA placebo, in subjects with chronic, moderate-to-severe osteoarthritis (OA) knee pain.

Change From Baseline in Average Weekly Pain With Walking (NPRS 0-10) in the Index Knee
Average daily OA pain in the index knee while walking was evaluated using a 0 to 10 Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) (0 = no pain and 10 = worst possible pain). 0 was the best score and 10 was the worst score. Subjects used an ePRO at bedtime (9:00 PM ± 3 hours) to record on a daily basis their average daily OA knee pain score with walking during the previous 24 hours.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 12
Mean Change From Baseline in WOMAC A (Pain) Dimension Total Score
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities developed the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score to use among patients with knee and/or hip OA. The WOMAC is a validated, multidimensional measure of pain, stiffness, and physical functional disability that is sensitive to the effects of drugs or other interventions. This study used the 11-box NPRS format ranging from 0 (none or no pain/stiffness/difficulty) to 10 (extreme). The WOMAC is a self-administered index that contains 24 items asked in relation to the index knee joint. The WOMAC has 3 dimensions: Pain (Subscale A), Stiffness (Subscale B), and Physical Function (Subscale C). Lower scores mean a better outcome and higher scores mean a worse outcome. The pain dimension includes 5 items about the amount of pain experienced doing various activities (walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, at rest, weight bearing). The score ranges from 0 to 50.

Mean Change From Baseline WOMAC B (Stiffness) Dimension Total Score
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities developed the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score to use among patients with knee and/or hip OA. The WOMAC is a validated, multidimensional measure of pain, stiffness, and physical functional disability that is sensitive to the effects of drugs or other interventions. This study used the 11-box NPRS format ranging from 0 (none or no pain/stiffness/difficulty) to 10 (extreme). The WOMAC is a self-administered index that contains 24 items asked in relation to the index knee joint. The WOMAC has 3 dimensions: Pain (Subscale A), Stiffness (Subscale B), and Physical Function (Subscale C). Lower scores mean a better outcome and higher scores mean a worse outcome. The stiffness dimension has 2 items: joint stiffness upon wakening and joint stiffness later in the day. The score ranges from 0 to 20.

Mean Change From Baseline in WOMAC C (Physical Function) Dimension Total Score
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities developed the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score to use among patients with knee and/or hip OA. The WOMAC is a validated, multidimensional measure of pain, stiffness, and physical functional disability that is sensitive to the effects of drugs or other interventions. This study used the 11-box NPRS format ranging from 0 (none or no pain/stiffness/difficulty) to 10 (extreme). The WOMAC is a self-administered index that contains 24 items asked in relation to the index knee joint. The WOMAC has 3 dimensions: Pain (Subscale A), Stiffness (Subscale B), and Physical Function (Subscale C). Lower scores mean a better outcome and higher scores mean a worse outcome. The function dimension asks about the degree of difficulty in doing 17 activities due to the reference joint. The score ranges from 0 to 170.
