February 23, 2022 updated by: Anika Therapeutics, Inc.

An Open-Label, Follow-On Study to Cingal 13-01 to Evaluate the Safety of a Repeat Injection of Cross-Linked Sodium Hyaluronate Combined With Triamcinolone Hexacetonide to Provide Symptomatic Relief of Osteoarthritis of the Knee

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of an injection of Cingal® in subjects with Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee who participated in Cingal 13-01, and who received either a Cingal, Monovisc, or saline injection in the 13-01 study. The safety evaluation will be done by a through examination of the incidence of adverse events and physical examination of the knee.

Detailed Description

The Cingal 13-02 study is a follow-on study to the recently completed clinical trial Cingal 13-01 [NCT01891396]. Cingal 13-01 was a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, Phase III study that enrolled 368 subjects at up to 20 sites in Canada and Europe. The Cingal 13-01 study objective was to assess the safety and effectiveness of a single injection of Cingal® for relief of joint pain and symptoms in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The study had three arms: the Cingal® investigational arm, an active comparator arm (Monovisc®) and a control arm (saline). Cingal 13-02 is designed to evaluate the safety of an open-label injection of Cingal® in subjects who received a study injection in the Cingal 13-01 trial. Sites that enrolled 5 or more subjects in the Cingal 13-01 study were eligible to participate in the Cingal 13-02 study. All subjects at these sites who met enrollment criteria had the option to participate in the follow-on study.
