Tanezumab vs placebo provides superior pain relief and improvement in physical function and PGA in knee and hip osteoarthritis patients and is generally well tolerated with acceptable AEs. Low-dose tanezumab (10 or 25 µg/kg and 2.5 mg) provides similar effectiveness in reducing pain and improving function and is associated with fewer AEs. The long-term safety of tanezumab on osteoarthritis knee and hip pain needs further investigation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
