PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to Week26

Observed VAS of 100 mm; 0 mm meaning no pain; 100 mm meaning extreme pain following 50-foot walk test. Change in score from baseline through week 26 was estimated using a longitudinal model.

POST_HOC outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Week 26

Population: The post-hoc analysis plan pre-specified that only the change at week 26 in the Gel-One arm is intended to be analyzed.

Observed VAS of 100 mm; 0 mm meaning no pain; 100 mm meaning extreme pain following 50-foot walk test. Change in score from baseline to week 26 was calculated as baseline minus week 26.
