Ultrasound-Guided Injections of HYADD4 for Knee Osteoarthritis Improves Pain and Functional Outcomes at 3, 6, and 12 Months without Changes in Measured Synovial Fluid, Serum Collagen Biomarkers, or Most Synovial Fluid Biomarker Proteins at 3 Months.

Clinical improvements were observed at 12 months using US needle guidance for IA HA, whereas only one SF protein biomarker protein was different at 3 months. Larger studies are needed to identify which SF biomarkers will predict which individual OA patients will receive the greatest benefit from IA therapeutics.
