Efficacy and Safety of Intra-Articular Cross-Linked Sodium Hyaluronate for the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Prospective, Active-Controlled, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Double-Blind, Multicenter Study.

ABSTRACT: The safety and efficacy of Hyruan ONE (test product), an intra-articular cross-linked sodium hyaluronate injection, to treat mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis was compared with that of Durolane (comparator) in a prospective, active-controlled, parallel-group, double-blind (masked-observed), multicenter non-inferiority study. European patients (n = 284) were randomized 1:1 (test product:comparator) and received one injection of cross-linked hyaluronic acid (60 mg/3 mL). In total, 280 patients completed the study. The primary endpoint of mean change in Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC)-Likert Pain sub-scores from baseline at week 13 revealed changes of -5.59 and -5.54 for the test and comparator groups, respectively, demonstrating non-inferiority of the test product (
