Arm Description

Generic Name: Triamcinolone acetonide Zilretta is an extended-release synthetic corticosteroid indicated as an intra-articular injection for the management ofosteoarthritis pain of the knee. 5mL suspension of 32 mg of triamsinolone administered as a 1 dose parapatellar intra-articular injection.

Generic Name: Hylan G-F 20 Synvisc-One combines the three doses of SYNVISC (hylan G-F 20) which consists of hylan A (average molecular weight6,000,000 daltons) and hylan B hydrated gel in a buffered physiological sodium chloride solution, pH 7.2. Each 10 mL syringe of Synvisc-One combines the three 2-mL doses (16 mg each) of a complete SYNVISC treatment regimen (48 mg). Synvisc-One belongs to a class of drugs called Intra-Articular Agents; Rheumatologics, Other. 10mL of Hylan G-F 20 administered as a 1 dose parapatellar intra-articular injection.

Generic Name: Hyaluronan The Monovisc™ device is a proprietary high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HA) viscosupplementation intended for the treatment of pain in patients with moderate osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee who have failed conservative non-pharmacological therapy and simple analgesics. The device is administered by a single injection via the para-patellar approach under sterile conditions. 4mL injection of Hyaluronan administered as a 1 dose parapatellar intra-articular injection.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is a 3-arm, double-blind, randomized trial comparing the clinical outcomes of Zilretta, Synvisc One, and Monovisc for knee OA.
Detailed Description
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability worldwide.1,2 Standard of care treatments for knee OA include activity modification, weight loss, therapeutic exercise and medications like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). If these measures fail, injections like corticosteroids and hyaluronate (HA) can be helpful for pain control.3 The aforementioned injections have unique mechanisms of action. Steroid injections work through reducing joint inflammation, while HA works by lubricating and cushioning the joint. There are several varieties of steroids and HA injections that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in knee OA. Among these variations are extended-release triamcinolone (Zilretta), hylan GF-20 (synvisc one), and hyaluronan (monovisc). While each are FDA approved and commonly used in orthopedic and sports medicine clinics, they have never been directly compared in any study. Therefore, when selecting a treatment for a patient, it is largely based on provider preference, not clinical data. This study is a 3-arm, double-blind, randomized trial comparing the clinical outcomes of Zilretta, Synvisc One, and Monovisc for knee OA.
