Single-arm, single-center, no sham or placebo, prospective pilot trial designed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of transcatheter arterial embolization in patients with mild to moderate radiographic knee OA. Eligible participants will receive geniculate artery embolization using Embozene™ Color-Advanced Microspheres. Patients will be followed up for a total of 12 months.
The current study seeks to determine whether transcatheter arterial embolization of abnormal neovasculature arising from the genicular arterial branches is safe and effective in the treatment of mild-to-moderate knee OA.

|---|---|---|---|
| Embolization Group | Experimental | 23 participants who are aged between 30 to 75 years old, with grade 2 or 3 knee OA on the most recent knee radiographs obtained within 6 months of intervention. Each individual participant will be enrolled for approximately 13 months to complete all study visits from the initial screening visit to last follow up at 12-months post intervention. |

| Transcatheter arterial embolization | Procedure | Transcatheter arterial embolization of one or more genicular artery(ies) using Embozene™ Color-Advanced Microspheres. Embozene™ Color-Advanced Microspheres are spherical, tightly calibrated, biocompatible, non-resorbable, hydrogel microspheres coated with an inorganic perfluorinated polymer used for embolization. |

| Percentage Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) - Pain Score | The WOMAC questionnaire includes 24 questions on daily activities. The Pain Score subsection includes five questions regarding pain (pain during walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, rest, weight bearing); each question is scored on a Likert scale as follow: 0 for no pain, 1 for mild, 2 for moderate, 3 for severe, and 4 for extreme pain. The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-20; higher scores indicate greater pain. | Baseline, Month 3 |

The microspheres intended to occlude vasculature for the purpose of blocking blood flow to a target tissue. They are available in prefilled syringes in a range of sizes suitable for embolic therapy. The microspheres are compressible to enable smooth delivery through the indicated delivery catheter and color-coded by size to allow for easy identification. 250 μm microsphere will be used and are supplied in prefilled yellow syringes. |
