Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective is to determine whether Durolane is non-inferior to methylprednisolone, as assessed by level of pain, when each are given as single intra-articular injections for the relief of pain, in the treatment of symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee at 12 weeks.
