In a previous randomized trial, the non-inferiority of two hyaluronic acid injections (Synolis VA versus Synvisc-One) was assessed in patients with knee OA, with a response rate of 79% for Synolis VA. To assess whether a responder profile could be established for this treatment modality, we used the Synolis VA arm of a published 6-month prospective, multicenter, comparative, randomized, double-blinded trial. At baseline and during the study, pain and function were assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire. Ninety-six subjects from the intention-to-treat trial were included in the analysis. The 6-month change of WOMAC Pain with Synolis VA was not associated with any baseline clinical data. However, the change in WOMAC Function was significantly associated with its baseline level, even after adjustment for potential confounding variables ( p = 0.028), i.e., a poorer physical function at baseline was associated with a better response. In conclusion, in addition to the high absolute response rate to Synolis VA, the probability of success is even increased if administered in patients with more limited physical function at baseline. Further research with other potential confounding clinical variables is warranted in order to better applicate the concept of personalized medicine.
