Enrollment: 49 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

5. Definite radiographic OA in target knee at mild to severe stage (Kellgren-Lawrence 2-4)
6. Stable dose of analgesics for the past four weeks
7. Score of 2 or more (0-4 scale) on WOMAC question A1 (pain while walking on flat surface)

1. Female participants who are pregnant, lactating or planning pregnancy during the course of the clinical investigation
2. Previous intra-articular injection of polyacrylamide gel in the target knee
3. Previous intra-articular injection with hyaluronic acid or derivatives in target knee in the previous 6 months
4. Significant valgus/varus deformity of the knee, ligamentous laxity or meniscal instability
5. Diseases in target knee other than OA
6. Intra-articular injection of any substance other than hyaluronic acid (e.g. corticosteroids) in the target knee within the last 3 months
7. Acute serious infection of any region that required hospital care or intravenous antibiotic treatment within the last 30 days, or oral antibiotic treatment within the last 14 days
8. Skin disease or infections in the area of the injection site
9. History of sepsis in any joint or any clinical concern for an infectious process in the target knee
10. History of surgery in the target knee within the past 6 months
11. Symptomatic osteoarthritis of the hips, spine or ankle, that interferes with the evaluation of the target knee
12. Planned surgery on any lower extremity
