Knee pain relief showdown: Hyruan-One vs. synvisc in new study
NCT ID NCT03484091
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a single injection of Hyruan-One works better than Synvisc or a saline placebo for knee osteoarthritis pain. 276 adults with knee osteoarthritis who had not gotten relief from other treatments took part. The main goal was to measure pain changes over 6 months using a standard pain scale.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- hyaluronic acid (Hyruan-One and Hylan G-F 20/Synvisc)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could confirm that a single injection of Hyruan-One provides similar or better pain relief for knee osteoarthritis compared to an existing treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a completed Phase 4 trial, but results may not apply to all patients. The effect is temporary symptom relief, not a cure, and some people may not benefit or may have side effects like injection-site pain.
