The placebo therapy will be an intra-articular injection of 2 mL of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). 
Duration of treatment:  
1 day; single-dose injection 
Duration of subject participation:  
Approximately 52 weeks following a screening period of up to 21 days 
Criteria for evaluation: 
Efficacy: 
Efficacy will be assessed by: 
•
WOMAC pain and function subscores as well as WOMAC total score for the target knee
•
Patient Global Assessment
•
Percentage of OMERACT-OARSI responders and “strict” responders
•
HRQOL as assessed by SF-36
•
Physician Global Assessment
•
JSW as evaluated by X-ray
Safety: 
The overall safety and tolerability of SM04690 will be determined by the incidence, severity and 
relationship of adverse events (AE) and clinically significant changes in clinical laboratory measures 
and vital signs. 
Statistical methods: 
A sample size of approximately 445 subjects will be randomized across four treatment groups 
(0.03 mg active per 2 mL injection: 0.07 mg active per 2 mL injection: 0.23 mg active per 2 
mL injection: placebo) based on a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The sample size for this study was based upon 
accepted statistical practice and not on a formal efficacy hypothesis test and corresponding 
power analysis. 
The Safety Analysis Set will comprise all subjects who were randomized and received 
SM04690 or placebo. The Intent-to-Treat Analysis Set (ITT) will comprise subjects who were 
randomized. The Modified Intent-to-Treat Analysis Set (mITT) will comprise all randomized 
subjects who received a protocol specified dose of SM04690 or placebo. The Per Protocol 
Analysis Set (PP) will comprise ITT subjects who complied with all study procedures and 
evaluations, and did not have major protocol deviations.  
The incidence of AEs and proportion of subjects experiencing AEs will be summarized by 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02

seriousness and relatedness to study product for each treatment group; severity of the AEs will 
be assessed by the Investigator according to the “Guidance for Industry: Toxicity Scale for 
Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Trials”. Safety 
summaries will also include listings of clinical laboratory findings, vital signs, and concomitant 
medications. 
Differences in efficacy outcomes between groups will be estimated at time points using 
parametric regression methods adjusting for baseline.

INTRODUCTION 
1.1. 
Summary 
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and the major cause of activity 
limitation and physical disability in older people. Today, 35 million people (13% of the US 
population) are 65 and older, and more than half of them have radiological evidence of OA in at 
least 1 joint. By 2030, 20% of Americans (about 70 million people) will have passed their 65th 
birthday and will be at risk for OA (Nevitt et al. 2006). 
Therapies available to treat OA are limited. Most current treatments are designed only to relieve 
pain and reduce or prevent the disability caused by bone and cartilage degeneration. Drug 
therapies target the symptoms but not the cause of this disease; no treatment inhibits or reverses 
the degenerative structural changes that are responsible for its progression (Nevitt et al. 2006). 
Samumed, LLC (Samumed) is developing SM04690 for the treatment of OA. SM04690 is a 
small molecule inhibitor of the Wnt pathway.  
1.2. 
Nonclinical Assessments 
SM04690 has been tested in a number of appropriate nonclinical studies. The results of those 
studies are included in the Investigator Brochure (IB). 
1.3. 
Study Rationale 
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and chronic joint disorder in man (Dougados 
and Hochberg 2011). The exact cause of OA is unknown, but it is associated with aging and 
normal wear on a joint. Osteoarthritis is characterized by the destruction of the articular cartilage, 
subchondral bone alterations, and synovitis. Patients present with pain and stiffness in the joints, 
with the joints becoming more stiff and immobile over time (Dougados and Hochberg 2011). 
Osteoarthritis is a leading cause of physical disability in the US (Lawrence et al. 2008).  
The Wnt pathway plays a central role in the initiation and progression of OA pathology and is 
crucial in normal joint metabolism (Hochberg et al. 2012). Wnt is a major regulator of joint 
development and is involved in the formation of bone, cartilage, and synovium. The transcription 
of Wnt target genes causes an increase in catabolic processes during the development of OA, and 
increased Wnt signaling may contribute to cartilage loss (Gelse et al. 2012). Polymorphisms in 
genes involved in Wnt signaling are associated with an increased susceptibility to OA 
development (Wu et al. 2012). Established research suggests that modulation of Wnt signaling is 
an attractive target for treatment of OA. 
In order to address the need for effective pharmaceutical agents to treat OA, Samumed has used 
structure-based drug design to synthesize a small molecule inhibitor of the Wnt pathway, 
SM04690, as a potential OA therapeutic to be administered in the form of a local injection in the 
affected joint. 
SM04690 is currently being tested in a single Phase 1 clinical trial in subjects with moderately to 
severely symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee. The trial was a placebo-controlled, double-blind, 
dose-escalation study conducted in the US of three concentrations of SM04690 (0.03, 0.07, and 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02

0.23 mg per 2 mL injection). In each dose cohort, subjects were randomized to active or vehicle 
at a ratio of 16 active: 4 vehicle. Subject clinic visits occurred on Day 1 and 2 and Weeks 1, 2, 4, 
8, 12, and 24. Each successively higher concentration cohort was enrolled after completion of 
treatment and review of safety data from the previous cohort by a Safety Review Committee. 
The Safety Review Committee was comprised of the Samumed medical monitor, the site 
Investigators, and an independent rheumatologist. As of 07 July 2015, 61 subjects have been 
enrolled in 3 ascending dose cohorts of approximately 20 subjects per cohort. Per protocol, data 
from cohort 1 and 2 were unblinded following the safety review of all subjects enrolled in the 
cohort (observed for a minimum of 12 weeks). Cohort 3 data remains blinded.  
As of 07 July 2015, following dosing in all three cohorts, there have been two dose-limiting 
toxicities (DLTs) and 1 serious adverse event (SAE) reported on the trial. A DLT of increased 
knee pain was reported and met the DLT criteria of increased pain at the target joint of greater 
than 30 mm increase on the pain visual analog scale (VAS); this DLT was due to a procedural 
error and considered unrelated to study drug. A DLT of tachycardia paroxysmal was also 
reported and met the DLT criteria of an AE deemed by the investigator to be a severe or serious 
AE. This DLT also met SAE criteria. The event was a report of tachycardia paroxysmal in a 72 
year old white male, with previous medical history of tachycardia. This event was considered 
unrelated to study drug administration by the reporting investigator. Nevertheless, as the FDA 
requested that all adverse events in this initial OA study be considered related to study drug, this 
event was reported in an expedited manner. No other DLTs or SAEs have been reported. This 
data provided justification to move forward with a Phase 2 dosing trial.

DESCRIPTION OF STUDY DESIGN
This study will be a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group 
study of three different strengths of SM04690 injected into the target knee joint of moderately to 
severely symptomatic osteoarthritis subjects. 
Approximately 445 subjects will be enrolled and randomized at a ratio of 1:1:1:1 (0.03 mg active 
per 2 mL injection: 0.07 mg active per 2 mL injection: 0.23 mg active per 2 mL injection: 
placebo). Subjects will participate in a screening period of up to 21 days and a 52 week follow-
up period. Clinic visits will be scheduled at Screening, Treatment Visit Day 1 and Follow-up 
Weeks 4, 13, 26, 39 and 52 [End of study (EOS) or Early Termination (ET)]. 
The study schedule is as follows: 
•
Day -21 to -1: Screening Visit
•
Day 1: Treatment visit
•
Week 4: Follow-up visit
•
Week 13: Follow-up visit
•
Week 26: Follow-up visit

•
Week 39: Follow-up visit
•
Week 52: End of Study (EOS) or Early Termination (ET): Follow-up visit
Specific timing of protocol procedures are described in Appendix 1. 
This study will be conducted at up to 40 investigational centers in the US. Potential subjects will 
attend a Screening Visit and participate in a screening period of no longer than 21 days.   
In this study, general medical evaluations and recording of vital signs will be performed at all 
visits. A pain VAS will be administered at the Screening Visit. X-ray imaging of the target knee 
joint will be performed at screening and at Weeks 26 and 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. A 
Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Score assessment will be conducted at the 
Screening Visit only. Physical examinations will be performed at the Screening Visit (including 
knee examination), Day 1, Week 13, Week 26, Week 39 and Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. 
Clinical laboratory evaluations will be performed at the Screening Visit, Week 13, Week 26, 
Week 39 and Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. The subject will complete the WOMAC 
questionnaire, Patient Global Assessment, and SF-36 at all visits; the investigator or designated 
study staff will complete the Physician Global Assessment at all visits. Recording of signs and 
symptoms of study medication intolerability and adverse event reporting will start following the 
injection of the study medication and continue until the subject completes follow-up visit Week 
52 (EOS)/Early Termination. All AEs, whether volunteered, elicited, or noted during 
examination, will be recorded throughout the study. 
An interim analysis will be performed after all subjects have completed their Week 26 visit; 
however clinical study sites and subjects will remain blinded throughout the study. 
3.1. 
Study Endpoints 
3.1.1. 
Primary Endpoints 
The efficacy of treatment with SM04690 Injectable Suspension will be assessed by evaluating 
changes from baseline WOMAC pain subscore for the target knee at Week 13. 
3.1.2. 
Secondary Endpoints 
Efficacy will be assessed by evaluating changes from baseline WOMAC pain (Week 26) and 
function (Weeks 13 and 26) subscores and Patient Global Assessment at Weeks 13 and 26, as 
well as by evaluating change in JSW as evaluated by X-ray at Week 26.  
Safety assessments will be performed on all subjects who are administered study treatments. 
Safety assessments include vital signs, clinical laboratory sampling, solicitation of adverse 
events and concomitant medications, as well as general medical evaluations.  
Safety analyses will be conducted on data collected from all subjects who are administered study 
treatment. 
3.1.3. 
Exploratory Endpoints 
Exploratory efficacy will be assessed by evaluating changes from baseline WOMAC total score, 
HRQOL as assessed by SF-36, and Physician Global Assessment at all timepoints, as well as by 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02 
Amendment 04 Version 00

evaluating the percentage of OMERACT-OARSI responders and “strict” responders at Weeks 
13, 26, and 52 (Pham et al. 2003) and change in lateral JSW as evaluated by X-ray at Week 26 
and 52 and medial JSW at Week 52. Additionally, efficacy will be assessed by evaluating 
changes from baseline WOMAC pain and function subscores and Patient Global Assessment at 
Weeks 4, 39, and 52. 
3.2. 
Measures to Minimize Bias 
3.2.1. 
Blinding 
This is a double-blind study. Study medication will be provided to the investigational center. The 
investigational center must identify unblinded personnel who will be responsible for preparing 
the appropriate dilution of the study medication and who are able to perform the injection of 
study medication and/or placebo. Study personnel administering or preparing study medication 
and reference therapy must minimize any contact with the subject following the injection and 
may not perform any study assessments throughout the duration of the study. On study visit Day 
1, subjects will be randomized via the Medidata database.  
3.2.2. 
Randomization/Assignment to Investigational Product or Placebo 
Subjects will be assigned a subject number at their Screening Visit. Eligible subjects will be 
randomized at their study visit Day 1 to a blinded treatment code within the randomization 
schema. To be eligible for randomization, the subject must fulfill the following requirements: 
•
Meet all study inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria
•
Have acceptable Screening clinical laboratory test results
•
Have signed the Informed Consent form
•
Comply with the study instructions
3.2.3. 
Subject Re-screening 
Subjects are allowed to be re-screened once. Re-screens are limited to subjects who did not meet 
inclusion/exclusion criteria due to a transient reason. Transient refers to self-limiting and 
predictably resolving conditions or acute events (e.g., seasonal allergies, common cold, or otitis 
media), reversible medical conditions that are successfully treated (e.g., anemia successfully 
treated by infusion), and/or being unable to comply with study procedures due to administrative 
convenience (e.g., family issues or attending to a private matter).  
Subjects who failed any entry criteria in which no further treatment or spontaneous resolution is 
expected are not allowed to be re-screened.  
Any re-screened subject must be re-consented and will be issued a new subject number. All 
screening procedures and assessments must be performed at re-screen; no results or data may be 
used from the previous screen.  
3.2.4. 
Unblinding During the Study 
The blind may be broken by a qualified physician who is an Investigator in this study in the 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02 
Amendment 04 Version 00 
Samumed, LLC  
October 13, 2016

Page 21 of 63 
event of a medical emergency in which knowledge of the identity of the study medication is 
critical to the management of the subject’s immediate course of treatment. Before breaking the 
blind, the Investigator should determine that the information is necessary (i.e., that it will alter 
the subject’s immediate course of treatment).  
If deemed necessary to break the blind for a study subject, the Samumed Medical Monitor is to 
be contacted to obtain concurrence. If it is not possible to contact the Medical Monitor 
beforehand, he or she should be contacted as soon as possible after breaking the blind for a 
subject. Details regarding the emergency unblinding will be documented in Medidata Balance 
and medical records. Instructions on how to unblind treatment assignment will be provided to 
each Investigator and kept within a guidance document at each site. No other site users will have 
access roles to Balance that will allow treatment assignment unblinding. 
Any subject whose blind has been broken will continue their follow-up visits as per protocol. 
An interim analysis will be performed after all subjects have completed their Week 26 visit; 
however clinical study sites and subjects will remain blinded throughout the study. Only the 
study sponsor will be unblinded at this time. 
3.3. 
Investigational Product 
3.3.1. 
Rationale for Dosages and Dosing Regimen 
A phase 1 clinical trial was conducted to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), 
and pharmacodynamics (PD) of a SM04690 formulation at 3 different dose-level concentrations 
(0.03, 0.07, and 0.23 mg per 2 mL injection) injected into the intra-articular space of the OA-
affected target knee. The initial dose level of SM04690 (0.03 mg) was based on the mammalian 
species most sensitive to SM04690 in 8-week toxicology studies (the approximate residence time 
of the drug) in accordance with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines. Preclinical 
studies to date have not demonstrated toxicity or systemic exposure at the biologically 
efficacious dose, so doses were selected that bracketed the projected biologically efficacious 
dose based on preclinical studies, hence resulting in the escalation sequence of 0.03, 0.07, and 
0.23 mg per 2 mL injection. 
As of 07 July 2015, 61 subjects have been enrolled in 3 ascending dose cohorts of approximately 
20 subjects per cohort. Per protocol, data from cohort 1 and 2 were unblinded following the 
safety review of all subjects enrolled in the cohort (observed for a minimum of 12 weeks). 
Cohort 3 data remains blinded. 
A total of 28/61 subjects have reported 68 treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) with 35 
preferred terms. The system organ class (SOC) most reported was ‘Musculoskeletal and 
connective tissue disorders’ with 11/61 subjects reporting 19 TEAEs of 5 preferred terms.   
As of 07 July 2015, following dosing in all three cohorts, there have been two dose-limiting 
toxicities (DLTs) and 1 serious adverse event (SAE) reported on the trial. A DLT of increased 
knee pain was reported and met the DLT criteria of increased pain at the target joint of greater 
than 30 mm increase on the pain VAS; this DLT was due to a procedural error and considered 
unrelated to study drug. A DLT of tachycardia paroxysmal was also reported and met the DLT 
criteria of an AE deemed by the investigator to be a severe or serious AE. This DLT also met 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02 
Amendment 04 Version 00 
Samumed, LLC  
October 13, 2016 
Confidential 
Page 22 of 63 
SAE criteria. The event was a report of tachycardia paroxysmal in a 72 year old white male, with 
previous medical history of tachycardia. This event was considered unrelated to study drug 
administration by the reporting investigator. Nevertheless, as the FDA requested that all adverse 
events in this initial OA study be considered related to study drug, this event was reported in an 
expedited manner. No other DLTs or SAEs have been reported. 
Overall, the data suggest that, at the strengths under evaluation (0.03 mg per 2 mL injection, 0.07 
mg per 2 mL injection, and 0.23 mg per 2 mL injection), this Phase 2 clinical trial with SM04690 
has the therapeutic potential to safely treat individuals with moderately to severely symptomatic 
osteoarthritis of the knee. 
3.3.2. 
Dosages and Dosing Regimen 
SM04690 will be administered in the following dosage strengths: 
•
SM04690 0.03 mg in 2 mL Injectable Suspension
•
SM04690 0.07 mg in 2 mL Injectable Suspension
•
SM04690 0.23 mg in 2 mL Injectable Suspension
•
SM04690 0 mg; placebo (PBS) injection only
Each subject will be randomly assigned to a dose at Study Visit Day 1. The injectable 
investigational product or the placebo (PBS) is to be administered as a 1-time single injection 
into the target knee joint. Only 1 knee will be treated for each subject in this study.  
Only topical anesthetic (absolutely no invasive anesthetic) is allowed for the study injections. 
Anesthetic is also not allowed to be combined with the study medication for injection. 
3.3.3. 
Dose Modifications 
No modification in the specified dose concentration or the volume (2 mL) of the study 
medication injected into the target knee joint will be allowed. 
3.3.4. 
Prior and Concomitant Medications and Procedures 
Prior medications are defined as medications that were taken within 30 days prior to study 
injection on Day 1. Concomitant medications are defined as medications taken any time after 
study injection on Day 1 until follow-up visit Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. All prior and 
new or modified concomitant therapy used during the study must be recorded on the “Prior and 
Concomitant Medications” page of the eCRF. 
Procedures that are ongoing, new, or modified at or post-Day 1 must be recorded on the 
“Procedures and Non-Drug Therapies” page of the eCRF. 
Any new or modified concomitant therapy must be considered to determine if it is related to an 
adverse event (AE).  
Subjects will be encouraged to remain on a stable dose of any allowed medications throughout 
the study. The use of aspirin (325 mg/day) for thrombosis prophylaxis is permitted.

employ to maintain best efforts for subject retention. The Sponsor is responsible for tracking 
participation to ensure proper retention of study subjects and will work with the site(s) to 
develop a site-specific action plan if needed. 
4.4. 
Procedures for Subject Discontinuation from the Study 
As the study treatment requires only a single injection, best efforts will be made to encourage 
subjects to attend all follow-up visits. Nevertheless, subjects will be informed that they are free 
to withdraw from the study at any time and for any reason.  
The Investigator may remove a subject from the study if, in the Investigator's opinion, it is not in 
the best interest of the subject to continue in the study; refer to Section 7 for further details. 
Notification of discontinuation will immediately be made to the Sponsor’s medical monitor. In 
case of premature discontinuation of study participation, efforts will be made to perform all final 
study day [Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination] assessments within 14 days of subject 
discontinuation. The date the subject is withdrawn from the study and the reason for 
discontinuation will be recorded on the subject’s case report form (CRF).  
The study may be discontinued at the discretion of the Investigator or the Sponsor. 
5.
CLINICAL ASSESSMENTS
5.1. 
Collection of Adverse Events Data
Data regarding treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) will be collected in this study. 
TEAEs are events that occur during the course of the study that are not present prior to Day 1 
study medication injection, or, if present at the time of study medication injection, have 
worsened in severity during the course of the study. Adverse events will be assessed at each 
study visit from the time of study medication injection on study visit Day 1 through Week 52 
(EOS)/Early Termination.  
Each subject will be observed and queried by the Investigator or the Investigator’s designee at 
each study visit for any continuing AEs or new AEs since the previous visit. The subject will be 
asked to return to the site for an unscheduled visit if an AE occurs between study visits, and if, in 
the opinion of the Investigator, the AE requires a study visit for full evaluation. Any AE reported 
by the subject or noted by the Investigator or the Investigator’s designee will be recorded within 
the eCRF. The following information will be recorded for each adverse event: description of the 
event, date of onset and resolution, severity as assessed by the Investigator according to the 
“Guidance for Industry: Toxicity Scale for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in 
Preventive Vaccine Trials” (Appendix 2), causal relationship to study medication, outcome, and 
any treatment given. 
Adverse events that are not serious and are ongoing at the subject’s last visit will be followed for 
a maximum of 30 days. Serious adverse events that are not resolved or stabilized during this time 
period will be followed until resolution or stabilization. 
5.2. 
Clinical Laboratory Sampling 
Non-fasting samples for clinical laboratory analysis will be collected by a qualified staff member 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02 
Amendment 04 Version 00 
Samumed, LLC  
October 13, 2016 
Confidential 
Page 28 of 63 
at the Screening Visit and follow-up visit Weeks 13, 26, 39, and 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. At 
a minimum, the following tests will be conducted: 
•
Chemistry panel: Albumin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase
(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood urea nitrogen, bicarbonate, calcium
(corrected total), chloride, creatinine, glucose, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),
potassium, sodium, bilirubin (total)
•
Hematology: Hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell (RBC) count, white blood cell
(WBC) count with differential, and platelet count
•
Urinalysis: Clarity, specific gravity, pH, protein, glucose, ketones, nitrite, leukocytes,
and occult blood
A urine-based pregnancy test will be performed on female subjects at the Screening Visit and at 
study visit Day 1, prior to study medication injection. 
An HbA1c test will be performed on all subjects at the Screening Visit. 
Urine microscopy will be performed if urinalysis values are out of range and the Investigator 
deems that the microscopy is clinically warranted. 
The Investigator or the Investigator’s designee must review the results of each subject’s 
Screening Visit clinical laboratory test results prior to the Day 1 visit. The subject must not be 
randomized on Day 1 if any of the Screening Visit results are outside the normal range for the 
laboratory AND, in the opinion of the Investigator, are clinically significant.  
The results of the clinical laboratory tests will be reported on the laboratory’s standard reports. 
The Investigator must review all laboratory reports in a timely manner, noting “not clinically 
significant” (NCS) or comment on the clinical significance (clinically significant: yes/no) of any 
result that is outside the normal range for the laboratory or has a toxicity grade of 1 or greater, 
then date and initial the report. The Investigator must report all laboratory results that are BOTH 
outside the normal range for the laboratory or has a toxicity grade of 1 or greater AND, in the 
opinion of the Investigator, are clinically significant. If any abnormal, clinically significant 
laboratory measure is found prior to study medication injection, the subject is to be excluded. If 
it is found after study medication injection, it should be reported as an AE (see Section 9). 
5.3. 
Medical History 
A medical history will be obtained at screening with a follow-up at end of study or Early 
Termination. Medical history will include demographic data (e.g., age, race/ethnicity). In 
addition, medical information will also be recorded, including all (1) medical conditions and 
disease states that require current or ongoing therapy and (2) other medical conditions and 
disease states that, in the opinion of the Investigator, are relevant to the subject’s study 
participation. Review of medical history at the Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination visit will only 
be to capture End Dates of any ongoing medical history collected at screening. 
5.4. 
Physical Examination 
A general physical examination will be conducted at the Screening Visit, Day 1, and Weeks 13, 
26, 39, and 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. Results of the physical examination will be noted in the 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02

source documents. Any clinically significant finding noted prior to study medication injection 
should be recorded as medical history. If it is found after study medication injection, it should be 
reported as an AE (see Section 9). 
5.4.1. 
Knee Examination 
A knee examination will be conducted at the Screening Visit. Results of the knee examination 
will be noted in the source documents. Presence of bilateral knee OA (yes/no) will be recorded in 
the eCRF. If the subject has osteoarthritis in both knees, the site is to establish the target knee as 
the knee with greater pain at screening based on the subject’s evaluation and the Investigator’s 
clinical judgment. 
Misalignment of the target knee will be assessed by the Investigator during the knee examination 
at the Screening Visit. Presence of significant misalignment of the target knee (yes/no) will be 
recorded in the eCRF. In the opinion of the Investigator, subjects with significant and clinically 
evident misalignment of the target knee that would impact subject function must be excluded 
from the study. 
5.4.2. 
Vital Signs 
Vital signs will be measured by a qualified staff member at all visits. 
At each time point, the following vital signs will be measured: 
• Body temperature 
• Pulse rate 
• Respiration rate 
• Blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) after the subject sits for at least 5 minutes 
Any measurement that is, in the opinion of the Investigator, abnormal AND clinically significant 
must be recorded as medical history if found prior to study medication injection or as an AE if 
found after study medication injection (see Section 9). 
5.4.3. 
Height and Weight 
Height measurements will be taken at the Screening Visit only. Weight measurements will be 
taken at the Screening Visit and follow-up visit Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. 
5.5. 
Pregnancy Tests 
A urine-based pregnancy test will be performed on female subjects at the Screening Visit and at 
study visit Day 1, prior to study medication injection.  
5.6. 
X-Ray of Knee Joints 
X-ray of the knee joints will be taken during the screening period and follow-up visit Weeks 26 
and 52 (EOS)/Early Termination. The screening X-ray is to be taken within 21 days before study 
visit Day 1 and must be taken according to the guidance provided by the independent radiologist. 
Detailed instructions for obtaining and managing the X-rays will be provided to the 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02

investigational center prior to the initiation of subject enrollment. The intent (and included in the 
Image Review Charter – Image Acquisition guidelines) is that X-rays should be obtained in the 
posterior-anterior (PA) view, whenever possible. The Image Acquisition Protocol allows for 
anteroposterior (AP) view when PA view X-ray cannot be acquired.  
All radiographs will be submitted to an independent radiologist who will document disease stage 
according to the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale for compliance with enrollment criteria, as 
well as joint space width for efficacy assessments. 
5.7. 
Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Score 
A Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Score assessment will be performed at the 
Screening Visit only. This assessment consists of a set of questionnaires that determine a 
subject’s areas of pain or tenderness and the severity of specified symptoms (Clauw 2014).  
Upon completion of the Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Score assessment, both 
the subject and the study staff member will sign/initial and date the source document to indicate 
that the assessments are reported accurately. 
The Widespread Pain Index and Symptom Severity Score assessment sheets will be provided by 
the Sponsor and may not be reproduced. 
5.8. 
Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index 
(WOMAC) 
The subject will complete the WOMAC Version NR3.1 questionnaire at all visits; at the Day 1 
visit, the subject will complete the questionnaire prior to study injection. The WOMAC is a 
widely-used, proprietary outcome measurement tool used by health professionals to evaluate the 
condition of patients with OA of the knee and hip, including pain, stiffness, and physical 
functioning of the joints.  
Upon completion of the WOMAC, both the subject and the study staff member will sign/initial 
and date the source document to indicate that the activity and pain assessments are reported 
accurately. 
The WOMAC questionnaires will be provided by the Sponsor and may not be reproduced. 
5.9. 
Pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) 
A pain VAS for the target knee will be administered at the Screening Visit. The VAS is a 
psychometric response scale. The subject will be asked on a 100 mm scale to rate their knee 
arthritis pain from “No pain” (left anchor) to “Pain as bad as it could be” (right anchor), 
considering the last 48 hours. 
Upon completion of the pain VAS, both the subject and the study staff member will sign/initial 
and date the source document to indicate that the pain assessment is reported accurately. The 
study staff member will record the pain VAS score in the eCRF. The score is determined by

measuring the distance (mm) between the “No pain” anchor and the subject’s mark, providing a 
range of scores from 0 to 100. 
The VAS questionnaires will be provided by the Sponsor and may not be reproduced. 
5.10. 
Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity 
The Patient Global Assessment will be performed at all visits; at the Day 1 visit, the subject will 
complete the assessment prior to study injection. The Patient Global Assessment will be a 100 
mm VAS scale on which the subject will rate how well they are doing, considering all the ways 
in which illness and health conditions may affect him/her. The VAS scale will be anchored by 
descriptors at each end (“Very Well” on the left and “Very Poorly” on the right). 
Upon completion of the Patient Global Assessment, both the subject and the study staff member 
will sign/initial and date the source document to indicate that the activity assessments are 
reported accurately. The study staff member will record the Patient Global Assessment score in 
the eCRF. The score is determined by measuring the distance (mm) between the “Very Well” 
anchor and the subject’s mark, providing a range of scores from 0 to 100. 
The Patient Global Assessment of Disease Activity questionnaires will be provided by the 
Sponsor and may not be reproduced. 
5.11. 
Physician Global Assessment of Disease Activity 
The Physician Global Assessment will be performed at all visits; at the Day 1 visit, the 
assessment will be performed prior to study injection. The Physician Global Assessment will be 
a 100 mm VAS scale on which the investigator will rate the subject’s disease activity 
independent of the patient’s self-assessment. The VAS scale will be anchored by descriptors at 
each end (“Very Good” on the left and “Very Bad” on the right). 
The investigator completing the Physician Global Assessment must sign/initial and date the 
source document to indicate that the assessment is reported accurately. A study staff member 
will record the Physician Global Assessment score in the eCRF. The score is determined by 
measuring the distance (mm) between the “Very Good” anchor and the Investigator’s mark, 
providing a range of scores from 0 to 100. 
The Physician Global Assessment of Disease Activity questionnaires will be provided by the 
Sponsor and may not be reproduced. 
5.12. 
36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) 
The SF-36 will be administered at all visits; at the Day 1 visit, the assessment will be performed 
prior to study injection. The SF-36 is a widely-used questionnaire which relies upon subject self-
reporting and measures the subject’s health-related quality of life. 
Upon completion of the SF-36, both the subject and the study staff member will sign/initial and 
date the source document to indicate that the quality of life assessments are reported accurately. 
The SF-36 questionnaires will be provided by the Sponsor and may not be reproduced.

PREMATURE DISCONTINUATION FROM STUDY
As the study treatment requires only a single injection, best efforts will be made to encourage 
subjects to attend all follow-up visits. A premature discontinuation from study will occur when a 
subject who signed informed consent ceases participation in this study, regardless of 
circumstances, prior to completion of the defined study period. Subjects can be prematurely 
discontinued from the study for one of the following reasons:  
•
Death
•
Lost to follow-up after a minimum of 2 attempts have been made to contact the
subject, including sending a registered letter
•
Subject withdraws consent
The reason for the discontinuation should be recorded on the eCRF. The Investigator or designee 
must complete all applicable eCRF pages for subjects who discontinue from the study 
prematurely. Week 52 (EOS)/Early Termination procedures should be conducted within 14 days 
of discontinuation for any subject who discontinues after study injection on Day 1. 
The principal Investigator and the Institutional Review Board/Ethics Committee (IRB/EC) 
reserve the right to prematurely terminate the study in the interest of subject safety and welfare. 
The Sponsor reserves the right to prematurely terminate the study at any time for administrative 
reasons.

SAFETY MONITORING AND ADVERSE EVENTS 
9.1. 
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) 
Data regarding TEAEs will be collected in this study. TEAEs are events that are not present prior 
to study medication injection or, if present prior to study medication injection, have worsened in 
severity. 
The reporting period for AEs starts after the injection of study medication on Day 1 and ends 
after the final study visit. 
Definition of Adverse Events: 
Adverse events in the eCRF will be classified according to the most recent US FDA definitions 
and in a manner consistent with ICH guidelines. As such the following definitions will be used: 
An adverse event (AE) is any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally 
associated with the use of an investigational (medicinal) product (IP) or other protocol-imposed 
intervention, regardless of attribution. An AE may include intercurrent illnesses or injuries that 
represent an exacerbation (increase in frequency, severity, or specificity) of preexisting 
conditions (e.g., worsening of asthma).

The Investigator must report all laboratory results that are BOTH outside the normal range for 
the laboratory or has a toxicity grade of 1 or greater AND, in the opinion of the Investigator, are 
clinically significant. If any abnormal, clinically significant laboratory measure is found after 
informed consent but prior to study medication injection, the subject is to be excluded. If it is 
found after study medication injection, it should be reported as an AE.  
Whenever possible, it is preferable to record a diagnosis as the AE term rather than a series of 
symptoms relating to a diagnosis. In order to classify AEs and diseases, preferred terms will be 
assigned by the Sponsor to the original terms entered on the eCRF, using the Medical Dictionary 
for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA).  
The Investigator will assess AEs for severity utilizing the “Guidance for Industry: Toxicity Scale 
for Healthy Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Trials”. This 
toxicity scale is presented in Appendix 2. Laboratory values not listed on the toxicity scale will 
be assessed for severity by the clinical Investigator. 
All adverse events that occur during this trial will be considered related to the study treatment. 
For future planning and informational purposes, the investigator opinion regarding the 
relatedness of the adverse event is to be collected for all adverse events. All adverse events that 
occur within the trial will continue to be reported to all regulatory authorities as well as 
summarized in the final clinical study report as related to study medication. The Investigator will 
determine the relationship of an AE to study treatment and will record it on the source 
documents and eCRF using the categories defined below.  
The relationship of the study treatment to an AE will be determined by the investigator based on 
the following definitions: 
1.  Not Related 
The AE is not related if (1) exposure to the investigational product (or placebo) or administration 
of the study injection has not occurred or (2) the occurrence of the AE is not reasonably related 
in time or (3) the AE is considered related to another event or product not associated with the 
investigational product (or placebo) or the study injection. 
2.  Unlikely Related 
The AE is unlikely related if (1) the AE is unlikely related in time or (2) the AE is considered 
unlikely to be related to use of the investigational product (or placebo) or study injection (i.e., 
there are no facts [evidence] or arguments to suggest a causal relationship). 
3.  Possibly Related 
The AE is possibly related if (1) the investigational product (or placebo) or the study injection 
and AE are considered reasonably related in time and (2) the AE could be explained by causes 
other than exposure to the investigational product (or placebo) or administration of the study 
injection. 
4.  Probably Related 
Exposure to the investigational product (or placebo) or administration of the study injection and 
AE are probably related if (1) the investigational product (or placebo) or study injection and AE 
are considered reasonably related in time and (2) the investigational product (or placebo) or

study injection is more likely than other causes to be responsible for the AE or is the most likely 
cause of the AE. 
Adverse events must be followed until resolution by the PI. Resolution is defined as the return to 
baseline status or stabilization of the condition with the expectation that it will remain chronic. 
Adverse events that are not serious and are ongoing at the subject’s last visit will be followed for 
a maximum of 30 days. Serious adverse events that are not resolved or stabilized during this time 
period will be followed until resolution or stabilization. 
9.2. 
Serious Adverse Events 
According to the ICH Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice (E6), an SAE is any untoward 
medical occurrence during the course of a clinical investigation that is characterized by 1 or 
more of the following: 
• Results in death 
• Is life threatening 
• Requires nonscheduled (not routine or planned) subject hospitalization or 
prolongation of existing hospitalization for ≥ 24 hours and admission to the hospital 
• Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
• Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
• Is an important medical event, defined as an event that does not fit one of the other 
outcomes, but may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical 
intervention (treatment) to prevent one of the other outcomes. Examples include 
allergic bronchospasm (a serious problem with breathing) requiring treatment in an 
emergency room, serious blood dyscrasias (blood disorders), or seizure/convulsion 
that does not result in hospitalization. The development of drug dependence or drug 
abuse would be other examples of important medical events. 
Although pregnancy is not a formal SAE, if a study participant or the partner of a study 
participant becomes pregnant while the study participant is on study, the pregnancy is to be 
reported via the SAE reporting process. 
9.2.1. 
Investigator Reporting Requirements for Serious Adverse Events 
All SAEs must be reported as described in the study manual at sae@samumed.com or by FAX 
by the Investigator, study coordinator, other designated study personnel, or clinical research 
associate within 24 hours of notification of the SAE. Follow-up information must be reported to 
the medical monitor as it becomes available. The Investigator also must report all SAEs 
promptly to the appropriate IRB/EC as required by the institution. Sponsor contact information 
for SAE reporting if needed is provided in Table 1.

Analysis Data Sets 
Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Analysis Set: All subjects who were randomized (SM04690 or placebo). 
Modified Intent-to-Treat (mITT) Analysis Set: ITT subjects who received a protocol specified 
dose of SM04690 or placebo, analyzed as treated. Subjects incorrectly receiving doses not 
prescribed by the protocol are excluded from this analysis set. 
Per-Protocol Analysis Set: ITT subjects who complied with all study procedures and 
evaluations, and did not have any major protocol deviations  
Safety Analysis Set: Subjects who were randomized and received SM04690 or placebo will be 
included in the safety analyses.  
10.5. 
Data Analyses 
10.5.1. 
Global Parameters 
For all analyses detailed here, the following global parameters will be used. For continuous 
variables, number of subjects in the analysis, mean, standard deviation (SD), median, minimum, 
and maximum will be reported. All categorical endpoints will be summarized using frequencies 
and percentages. 
10.5.2. 
Baseline 
For comparisons with baseline within each analysis population, baseline is defined as the last 
value recorded for any given parameter prior to study medication injection at Day 1. 
10.5.3. 
Safety analysis 
Safety assessments will be performed on all subjects who were randomized and received the 
study medication injection (SM04690 or placebo). Safety assessments include physical 
examinations, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, solicitation of AEs and concomitant 
medications, and general medical evaluations. No formal statistical analyses are planned. Safety 
will be evaluated based on the incidence, severity, and seriousness of treatment-emergent AEs 
and by changes in clinical laboratory parameters and vital signs, relative to baseline. 
10.5.4. 
Interim Analysis 
An interim analysis will be performed after all subjects have completed their Week 26 visit; 
however clinical study sites and subjects will remain blinded throughout the study. The aim of 
this interim analysis is to assess safety and efficacy objectives at Weeks 13 and 26. No trial 
adaptation(s) will be made based upon these results. 
10.5.5. 
Efficacy Analysis 
Efficacy analysis will be performed on the ITT, mITT, and PP Analysis Sets. Change in primary 
and secondary efficacy endpoints from baseline will be estimated at specified time points using 
parametric analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) models. Formal hypothesis testing between 
treatment groups will be conducted using a strategy to control the familywise error rate; the error 
rate strategy is detailed in the study’s SAP.

Exploratory efficacy analysis will be performed on the ITT, mITT, and PP analysis sets. Change 
in WOMAC total, WOMAC pain subscore, WOMAC function subscore, Patient Global 
Assessment, Physician Global Assessment, JSW and HRQOL from baseline will be estimated at 
specified time points using parametric analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) models. Logistic 
regression will be used to analyze the proportion of OARSI responders within each treatment 
group compared to placebo at specified time points. Exploratory subgroup analyses may also be 
performed. 
11. 
DATA COLLECTION, STUDY MONITORING, AND DATA 
DISCLOSURE 
11.1. 
Data Collection and Reporting 
The Investigator must maintain required records for all study subjects. Data for this study will be 
recorded in the subject's source document and on the eCRFs. All data on these eCRFs should be 
recorded completely and promptly. A copy of the completed eCRFs for each subject will be 
retained by the investigational center. 
The Investigator must maintain adequate and accurate source documents upon which eCRFs for 
each subject are based. They are to be separate and distinct from eCRFs, except for cases in 
which the Sponsor has predetermined that direct data entry into specified pages of the subject’s 
eCRF is appropriate. The source documents should include detailed notes on the following: 
• The oral and written communication with the subject regarding the study treatment 
(including the risks and benefits of the study); the date and time of informed 
consent(s) must be recorded in the source documentation 
• The subject’s medical and disease history before participation in the study 
• The subject’s basic identifying information, such as subject number, that links the 
subject’s source documents with the eCRFs 
• The results of all diagnostic tests performed, diagnoses made, therapy provided, and 
any other data on the condition of the subject 
• The subject’s exposure to study medication  
• All AEs 
• The subject’s exposure to any concomitant therapy (including start and stop dates, 
route of administration, and dosage) 
11.2. 
Study Monitoring 
All aspects of the study will be monitored by the Sponsor or the Sponsor’s designees with 
respect to current Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for 
compliance with applicable government regulations. It is the responsibility of the Investigator to 
provide all study records, including eCRFs and source documents among other records, for 
review and inspection by the clinical monitor. 
All eCRFs will be 100% source verified against corresponding source documentation (e.g., 

Protocol SM04690-OA-02

office and clinical laboratory records) for each subject. Clinical monitors will periodically 
evaluate the progress of the study, including the verification of appropriate consent form 
procedures, review of drug accountability and preparation procedures, adherence to dosing 
procedures, and the verification of the accuracy and completeness of eCRFs. Clinical monitors 
will also ensure that all protocol requirements, applicable US FDA regulations, other Regulatory 
requirements, and the Investigator’s obligations are being fulfilled. 
11.3. 
Records Retention 
During this study, an Investigator is required to prepare and maintain adequate and accurate case 
histories designed to record all observations and other data pertinent to the investigation on each 
individual treated with the investigational product or entered as a control in the investigation. 
Case report forms will be provided for each subject by the Sponsor. Data reported on the eCRFs 
and derived from source documents must be consistent with the source documents or the 
discrepancies must be explained. The completed eCRFs must be promptly reviewed, signed, and 
dated by a qualified physician who is an Investigator on the study. During this study, the 
Investigator must retain study medication (investigational product and placebo) disposition 
records, copies of eCRFs (or electronic files), and source documents for the maximum period 
required by (1) applicable regulations and guidelines or institution procedures or (2) for the 
period specified by the Sponsor, whichever is longer. The Investigator must contact the Sponsor 
prior to destroying any records associated with the study. 
The Sponsor will notify the Investigator when the study records are no longer needed. 
In the event the Investigator withdraws from the study (e.g., relocation, retirement), the records 
shall be transferred to a mutually agreed-upon designee (e.g., another Investigator). Notice of 
such transfer will be given in writing to the Sponsor. 
The Investigator must ensure that clinical study records are retained according to national 
regulations, as documented in the Clinical Trial Agreement entered into with the Sponsor in 
connection with this study. For example, US federal laws require that an Investigator maintain all 
study records for the indication under investigation for 2 years following the date of a New Drug 
Application approval or, if no application is filed or if the application is not approved for such 
indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and the FDA is notified. 
The Sponsor will maintain correspondence with the Investigator after study closeout to ensure 
that study documentation is retained for the appropriate amount of time. Subject files and other 
source data must be kept for the maximum period of time permitted by the hospital, institution, 
or private practice and should be retained in accordance with applicable legislation. The 
Investigator must inform the Sponsor immediately if any documents are to be destroyed, to be 
transferred to a different facility, or to be transferred to a different owner. 
11.4. 
Data Disclosure and Subject Confidentiality 
The Investigator(s) and the Sponsor or its authorized representative will preserve the 
confidentiality of all subjects participating in a study, in accordance with GCP, federal, state, and 
local regulations, including, to the extent applicable, the Health Insurance Portability and 
Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”).

Page 43 of 63 
In order to maintain subject confidentiality, all eCRFs, study reports, and communications 
relating to the study will identify subjects by initials and assigned subject numbers; subjects 
should not be identified by name. If a subject name appears on any document, it must be 
obliterated before a copy of the document is supplied to the Sponsor or its authorized 
representative. Study findings stored on a computer will be stored in accordance with federal, 
state, and local data protection laws. Subjects will be told that representatives of the Sponsor, its 
authorized representative, IRB or EC, or regulatory authorities may inspect their medical records 
to verify the information collected, and that all personal information will be held in strict 
confidence and in accordance with applicable data protection laws. The Investigator will 
maintain a personal subject identification list (subject numbers with the corresponding subject 
names) to make it possible for records to be identified.  
Clinical information will not be released without written permission from the subject, except as 
necessary for monitoring by the IRB/EC, the FDA, or the study Sponsor.  
Any information, inventions, or discoveries (whether patentable or not), innovations, 
suggestions, ideas, and reports made or developed by the Investigator(s) as a result of conducting 
this study shall be promptly disclosed to the Sponsor and shall be the sole property of the 
Sponsor. The Investigator agrees, upon the Sponsor’s request and at the Sponsor's expense, to 
execute such documents and to take such other actions, as the Sponsor deems necessary or 
appropriate, to obtain patents in the Sponsor’s name covering any of the foregoing. 
11.5. 
Policy for Publication and Presentation of Data 
The Sponsor encourages the scientific publication of data from clinical research studies. 
Investigators, however, may not present or publish partial or complete study results individually 
without the participation of the Sponsor. The PI(s) and the Sponsor may propose appropriate 
scientific manuscripts or abstracts from the study data. All proposed publications must be 
reviewed and commented on by the Sponsor before submission for publication. The detailed 
procedures for the review of publications are set out in the Clinical Trial Agreement entered into 
with the Sponsor in connection with this study. These procedures are in place to ensure 
coordination of study data publication and adequate review of data for publication against the 
validated study database for accuracy. Names of all Investigators and Sponsor representatives 
responsible for designing the study and analyzing the results will be included in the 
publication(s).
