Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Significant injury to the affected joint within 6 months of trial start. Disease upper extremity joints of sufficient degree to affect assessment of the target joint. Presence of OA secondary to known disorders other that remote (> 6 months ago) trauma. - Poor general health interfering with compliance or assessment - Less than 1 month between the time of IA injection of depocorticosteroid and enrollment. - Less than 6 months between the time of IA injection of a hyaluronate and enrollment. - Patients with symptomatic knee OA. - Use of assistive devices such as a cane or crutch. - Less than 3 months between the treatment with a slow acting drug for symptom relief and enrollment - Concomitant and previous medication: ? Use (topical, systemic, intra-articular) of hyaluronic acid, glucosamine sulphate, glucosamine HCl, n-acetyl glucosamine and derivatives thereof such as chondroitin sulphate, glycosaminoglycans. ? Patients who have used previous topical and/or systemic treatment with NSAID’s or analgetica, different from paracetamol, such as ibuprofen, diclofenac, acetyl salicylic acid, piroxicam and indomethacin in a 14 days period prior to the start of the study ? Patients who have used medications with MMP-inhibitory properties (e.g. tetracyclines or structurally related compounds), or took oral (systemic, > 10 days duration) glucocorticoids in a 28 days period prior to start of the study. ? Patients who have used compounds containing agents claiming to possess disease/structure modifying properties (e.g. diacerhein, glucosamine and/or chondroitin sulfate containing compounds) in a 28 days period prior to start of the study. - Treatment during the trial with physical and/or occupational therapy. - Known allergy against glucosamine or any of the ingredients in the cream. - Open wounds at the hands.

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Primary end point(s): The primary outcome measure is: The global pain intensity in the target hand measured on a 100 mm VAS, respectively after 2 and 4 weeks treatment.
|
Main Objective: To assess the global pain intensity in the target hand measured on a 100 mm VAS, respectively after 2 and 4 weeks treatment.
|
Secondary Objective: The secondary outcome measures are: ? The response to treatment, defined by the OARSI (OsteoArthritis Research Society International) and the OMERACT (Outcome Measures in Rheumatology) committees ? The change in the AUSCAN pain subscale from baseline to respectively 2 and 4 weeks treatment. ? The response to treatment, defined as 30% decrease in the AUSCAN pain subscale from baseline to 2 and 4 weeks. ? The change in AUSCAN joint stiffness, and physical function subscales from baseline to respectively 2 and 4 weeks treatment. ? The change in palpation pain evaluated by the Ritchie scale for the target hand from baseline to respectively 2 and 4 weeks treatment. ? The change in grip strength measured by dynamometry for the target hand from baseline to respectively 2 and 4 weeks treatment. ? The use of paracetamol as rescue medication measured by checking compliance, from baseline to respectively 2 and 4 weeks treatment
