  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 112 days after last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.

    WOMAC pain subscale is a 5-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of pain experienced due to osteoarthritis in index knee or index hip during past 48 hours. It was calculated as mean of the scores from the 5 individual questions scored on a numerical rating scale (NRS) of 0 to 10, where higher scores indicated higher pain. Total score range for WOMAC pain subscale score was 0 to 10, where higher scores indicated higher pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  2. Change From Baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Physical Function Subscale Score at Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    WOMAC physical function subscale is a 17-item questionnaire used to assess the degree of difficulty experienced due to osteoarthritis in index joint and index hip during past 48 hours. It was calculated as mean of the scores from 17 individual questions scored on NRS of 0 to 10, with higher scores indicated worse function. Total score range for WOMAC physical function subscale score was 0 to 10, where higher scores indicated worse function.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  3. Change From Baseline in Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Osteoarthritis at Week 2, 4, 8,16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    Participants answered: "Considering all the ways your osteoarthritis in your knee (or hip) affects you, how are you doing today?" Participants responded by using a 5-point scale where 1 = very good (no symptom and limitation of normal activities) and 5 = very poor (very severe symptoms and inability to carry out normal activities).

  5. Percentage of Participants With At Least 30 Percent (%), 50%, 70% and 90% Reduction in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscale Score

    Percentage of participants with at least 30%, 50%, 70% and 90% reduction from baseline in WOMAC pain subscale score are reported. WOMAC pain subscale is a 5-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of pain experienced due to osteoarthritis in index knee or index hip during past 48 hours. It was calculated as mean of the scores from the 5 individual questions scored on a 0 to 10 NRS, where higher scores indicated higher pain. Total score range for WOMAC pain subscale score is 0 to 10, where higher scores indicated higher pain.

    Measured: Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  6. Percentage of Participants With Cumulative Reduction From Baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscale Score

    WOMAC pain subscale is a 5-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of pain experienced due to osteoarthritis in index knee or index hip during past 48 hours. It is calculated as mean of the scores from 5 individual questions scored on a numerical rating scale (NRS) of 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate higher pain. Total score range for WOMAC pain subscale score is 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate higher pain. Participants with specified reduction (as percent) from baseline at Week 16 are reported.

    Measured: Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  7. Percentage of Participants With Improvement of At Least 2 Points in Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Osteoarthritis

    Participants answered: "Considering all the ways your osteoarthritis in your knee (or hip) affects you, how are you doing today?" Participants responded by using a 5-point scale where 1 = very good and 5 = very poor. Improvement signifies a decrease of at least 2 points on the 5-point scale relative to baseline value.

    Measured: Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  8. Change From Baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Stiffness Subscale Score at Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    WOMAC stiffness subscale is a 2-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of stiffness experienced due to osteoarthritis in index knee or index hip during past 48 hours. It is calculated as mean of the scores from 2 individual questions scored on NRS of 0 to 10, with higher scores indicate higher stiffness. Total score range for WOMAC stiffness subscale score is 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate higher stiffness. Stiffness is defined as a sensation of decreased ease in movement of knee or hip.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  9. Change From Baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Average Score at Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific 24-item questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain (5 items), stiffness (2 items) and physical function (17 items) in participants with osteoarthritis of knee or hip. Each item was scored on a 0 to 10 NRS scale, where higher scores indicated higher pain/stiffness or worse function. WOMAC average score was the mean of WOMAC pain, physical function and stiffness subscale scores and ranged from 0 to 10, where higher score indicated worse response.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  10. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Pain Subscale Item: Pain When Walking on a Flat Surface at Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    Participants answered: "How much pain have you had when walking on a flat surface?" Participants responded by using a NRS of 0 to 10, where 0 = no pain and 10 = extreme pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  11. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Pain Subscale Item: Pain When Going Up or Down Stairs at Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56

    Participants answered: "How much pain have you had when going up or down the stairs?" Participants responded by using a NRS of 0 to 10, where 0 = no pain and 10 = extreme pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56

  12. Time to Discontinuation Due to Lack of Efficacy

    Median time to discontinuation due to lack of efficacy was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 50

  13. Number of Participants Who Discontinued Due to Lack of Efficacy

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 50

  14. Percentage of Participants Who Used Concomitant Analgesic Medication

    United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved analgesics were permitted as concomitant medications to relieve the pain of osteoarthritis. These medications included opioids, topical analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), capsaicin products and viscosupplementation (example, hyaluronan) and were prescribed at the discretion of the Investigator.

    Measured: Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64

  15. Days Per Week of Concomitant Analgesic Medication Usage

    United States FDA-approved analgesics were permitted as concomitant medications to relieve the pain of OA. These medications included opioids, topical analgesics, NSAIDs, capsaicin products and viscosupplementation (example, hyaluronan) and were prescribed at the discretion of the Investigator.

    Measured: Week 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tanezumab 2.5 mg, Tanezumab 5 mg and Tanezumab 10 mg in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee and Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Pfizer at 100 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 100 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 May 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: Baseline up to 112 days after last dose of study medication (up to 345 days)). The study lists 25 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 May 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
