Brief Summary

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

Complementary and alternative medicine has been employed over thousands of years to relieve knee Osteoarthritis (OA) pain. Xinfeng Capsule, a patent Chinese herbal medicine, has been used in the treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) Some studies involving animal subjects may explored its mechanism. However, presently, there is a lack of large-sample, multicenter, randomized, controlled trials to evaluate the effects of Xinfeng Capsule treated for KOA. Therefore, the investigators designed a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Xinfeng Capsule in the treatment of KOA.
