Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluate Efficacy & Safety of HP-5000 Topical Patches in Subjects With Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Change in Osteoarthritis Pain Score
Time Frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score from baseline to week 4. WOMAC pain score is a scale that evaluate five items including walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, rest and weight bearing. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of five items. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome.
Baseline and 4 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
WOMAC Pain Score Week 2 Change From Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline and 2 weeks
To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score from baseline to week 2. WOMAC pain score is a scale that evaluate five items including walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, rest and weight bearing. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of five items. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome.
Baseline and 2 weeks
WOMAC Stiffness Score Change From Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Stiffness Score from baseline to week 4. The WOMAC Stiffness scale assesses 2 items including morning stiffness and stiffness occurring later in the day. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of two items range from 0 to 8 with a low score considered as a better outcome.
Baseline and 4 weeks
WOMAC Physical Function Score
Time Frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical function score from baseline to week 4. The WOMAC Physical Function assesses the following 17 items using the 0 to 4 scale. These 17 items include: 1. descending stairs; 2. ascending stairs; 3. rising from sitting; 4. standing; 5. bending to floor; 6. walking on a flat surface; 7. getting in/getting out of car; 8. going shopping; 9. putting on socks; 10. lying in bed; 11. taking off socks; 12. rising from bed; 13. getting in/out of bath; 14. sitting; 15. getting on/off toilet; 16. heavy domestic duties; 17. light domestic duties. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. Total score range from 0 to 68 with lower score considered a better outcome.
