What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change during activity in 100mm Pain VAS

    Visual Analogue Scale, 0 mm no pain, 100 mm worst pain ever

    Measured: baseline through week 8

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change during activity in 100mm Pain VAS

    Visual Analogue Scale, 0 mm no pain, 100 mm worst pain ever

    Measured: baseline through week 4

  2. Change at rest in 100mm Pain VAS

    Visual Analogue Scale, 0 mm no pain, 100 mm worst pain ever

    Measured: baseline through week 4, 8

  3. Change in WOMAC(Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index using the Visual Analogue Scale, Version 3.1) sub scale & total score

    Assessment of pain, stiffness and physical function. Score range 0-500 mm for Pain, 0-200 mm for Stiffness, and 0-1700 mm for Physical Function. Higher scores indicate worse pain, stiffness, and functional limitations.

    Measured: baseline through week 4, 8

  4. Change in PGA

    PGA for disease severity (Patient's Global Assessment, 1=Very good, 2=Good, 3=Fair, 4=Poor, 5=Very Poor)

    Measured: baseline through week 8

  5. Change in SF-36 sub scale & PCS, MCS as measured by Health Survey(Short Form, SF-36 v2, Physical Component Summary, Mental Component Summary)

    The SF-36 v2 is a 36-item, patient-reported survey of patient's health, consisting of 2 components(the PCS and the MCS) included 8 subscales.

    Patients rated their QoL using a 2-6 point Likert Scale. Score is converting the original score to 0~100 points.

    The lower score means poor health status, and the higher score, the better.

    Measured: baseline through week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PK101 and PK101-002 in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by PMG Pharm Co., Ltd at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change during activity in 100mm Pain VAS (time frame: baseline through week 8). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Sep 2021.
