Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase 2 study is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel group study of four concentrations of SM04690 (0.03, 0.07, 0.15, and 0.23 mg per 2 mL injection) injected intraarticularly (IA) into the target knee joint of subjects with moderately to severely symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA). Based on previous studies of SM04690, key phenotypes of laterality (unilateral vs bilateral) as well as chronic pain (as measured by the Widespread Pain Index) were identified as confounding variables impacting the overall assessment of both radiologic and clinical efficacy outcomes. The design of SM04690-OA-04 is based upon previous study designs while assessing strategies to combat the confounding impact of laterality and chronic pain. To evaluate the effect of IA vehicle injection on patient-reported outcomes (PRO) such as pain, stiffness, and function in OA, this study also includes one cohort that receives a 2 mL IA injection of vehicle (placebo), and one cohort that receives a sham injection (i.e., a needle stick with 0 mL vehicle injected).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline Osteoarthritis (OA) Pain in the Target Knee as Assessed by the Weekly Average of Daily Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) [Baseline and Week 24]

    Change from baseline OA pain in the target knee as assessed by the weekly average of daily pain NRS at Week 24. The pain NRS is an 11-point scale [0-10] for subject self-reporting of average knee pain in the last 24 hours; 0 indicates no pain, and 10 represents the worst possible pain (pain as bad as one can imagine).

  2. Change From Baseline OA Pain in the Target Knee as Assessed by Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscore (WOMAC Pain) [Baseline and Week 24]

    Change from baseline OA pain in the target knee as assessed by WOMAC Numeric Rating Scale (NRS 3.1) pain subscore (WOMAC Pain) at Week 24. The WOMAC is a widely-used, proprietary outcome measurement tool used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of subjects with OA of the knee and hip, including pain (5 questions), stiffness (2 questions), and physical functioning (17 questions) of the joints. Each question is measured on a scale from 0 (lowest pain/lowest stiffness/highest function) to 10 (highest pain/highest stiffness/lowest function). The WOMAC Pain subscore is standardized and reported ranging from 0 to 100 [0 = no pain; 100 = pain as bad as it can be].

  3. Change From Baseline OA Function in the Target Knee as Assessed by WOMAC Physical Function Subscore (WOMAC Function) [Baseline and Week 24]

    Change from baseline OA function in the target knee as assessed by WOMAC Numeric Rating Scale (NRS 3.1) physical functioning subscore (WOMAC Function) at Week 24. The WOMAC is a widely-used, proprietary outcome measurement tool used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of subjects with OA of the knee and hip, including pain (5 questions), stiffness (2 questions), and physical functioning (17 questions) of the joints. Each question is measured on a scale from 0 (lowest pain/lowest stiffness/highest function) to 10 (highest pain/highest stiffness/lowest function). The WOMAC Function subscore is standardized and reported ranging from 0 to 100 [0 = no functional disability, 100 = unable to function].

  4. Change From Baseline in Medial Joint Space Width (mJSW) of the Target Knee [Baseline and Week 24]

    Change from baseline in mJSW as documented by radiograph of the target knee.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline OA Disease Activity as Assessed by Patient Global Assessment (PtGA) [Baseline and Week 24]

    Change from baseline OA disease activity as assessed by PtGA at Week 24. The PtGA was completed using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS) adapted from the Patient Assessment Form © 1999, American College of Rheumatology. The subject rated how well he/she was doing, considering all the ways in which illness and health conditions may affected him/her. The VAS scale was anchored by "Very Well" on the left (scored as 0) and "Very Poorly" on the right (scored as 100). Higher scores indicated poorer disease assessment by the subject.

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Change From Baseline OA Pain in the Target Knee as Assessed by WOMAC Pain Subscore (WOMAC Pain) [Baseline and Week 12]

    Change from baseline OA pain in the target knee as assessed by WOMAC Numeric Rating Scale (NRS 3.1) pain subscore (WOMAC Pain) at Week 12. The WOMAC is a widely-used, proprietary outcome measurement tool used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of subjects with OA of the knee and hip, including pain (5 questions), stiffness (2 questions), and physical functioning (17 questions) of the joints. Each question is measured on a scale from 0 (lowest pain/lowest stiffness/highest function) to 10 (highest pain/highest stiffness/lowest function). The WOMAC Pain subscore is standardized and reported ranging from 0 to 100 [0 = no pain, 100 = pain as bad as it can be].

5. Secondary Outcome
Title Change From Baseline OA Disease Activity as Assessed by Patient Global Assessment (PtGA)
Description Change from baseline OA disease activity as assessed by PtGA at Week 24. The PtGA was completed using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS) adapted from the Patient Assessment Form © 1999, American College of Rheumatology. The subject rated how well he/she was doing, considering all the ways in which illness and health conditions may affected him/her. The VAS scale was anchored by "Very Well" on the left (scored as 0) and "Very Poorly" on the right (scored as 100). Higher scores indicated poorer disease assessment by the subject.

9. Other Pre-specified Outcome
Title Change From Baseline OA Disease Activity as Assessed by Patient Global Assessment (PtGA)
Description Change from baseline OA disease activity as assessed by PtGA at Week 12. The PtGA completed using a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS) adapted from the Patient Assessment Form © 1999, American College of Rheumatology. The subject rated how well he/she was doing, considering all the ways in which illness and health conditions may affected him/her. The VAS scale was anchored by "Very Well" on the left (scored as 0) and "Very Poorly" on the right (scored as 100). Higher scores indicated poorer disease assessment by the subject.

Adverse Events

Time Frame Data regarding treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was collected in this study. TEAEs are events that occur during the course of the study that are not present prior to Day 1 study medication injection, or, if present at the time of study medication injection, have worsened in severity during the course of the study. TEAEs were assessed at each study visit from the time of study medication injection on study visit Day 1 through Week 24 (End-of-Study)/Early Termination.
Adverse Event Reporting Description The Safety Analyses Set [SAS] includes all subjects who received a study injection, analyzed as treated. Discrepancy in subject counts between SAS and Full Analysis Set [FAS] is the result of subjects who received a treatment that is different from the planned treatment group as randomized. Subjects who received a study treatment not as prescribed in the pharmacy manual are summarized in the "Other" treatment group for safety analysis reporting.
