SYNVISC® Clinical Efficacy

Long Lasting OA Knee Pain Relief

SYNVISC® provides long-lasting relief for up to 6 months for chronic OA knee pain1

The SYNVISC family delivers maximum duration of relief for chronic OA knee pain among currently approved viscosupplements.1, 3-14, 17

The SYNVISC family has consistently shown significant OA knee pain reduction for up to 6 months compared with baseline in multiple, randomized, controlled studies.1,15-18,a-d

AEs observed with the SYNVISC family of viscosupplements were similar to those for placebo.1,17,18,a,b

At 12 months, patients experienced an average 44.8% reduction in pain from baseline with SYNVISC in a randomized, controlled, clinical trial vs Hyalgan.16,d

  • Secondary outcome observed in study where primary outcome variable was intergroup difference in OA knee pain as measured by VAS at 6 months

SYNVISC® demonstrated rapid OA knee pain relief as early as week 1 and up to 26 weeks with significant improvement from baseline1,17,a

In the pivotal clinical trial, significant pain reduction from baseline occurred 1 week after the first injection of SYNVISC and lasted through 26 weeks, as assessed by blinded evaluators.1,17,a

Safety

  • AEs related to SYNVISC were reported for 2.2% of injections and 7.2% of patients after a single course of treatment17
  • Most commonly reported device-related AEs with SYNVISC: pain in injected knee, swelling in injected knee, and joint effusion17
  • No severe AEs were observed in the SYNVISC group

Synvisc-One® (hylan G-F 20) is the only single-injection viscosupplement to show superiority vs saline in reducing pain at 6 months in a randomized clinical study2,4-5,18,19

Synvisc-One demonstrated significantly greater improvement in OA knee pain than saline control in the pivotal clinical trial.2,18,b,c
