Synovetin OA®—Targets Synovial Inflammation1

 

reduction in inflammatory mediators

Synovetin OA® is revolutionizing the treatment of arthritis in dogs' elbows

reduction in inflammatory mediators

The active agent of Synovetin OA® is Tin-117m, a unique conversion electron therapeutic veterinary device3

Synovetin OA
  • Targeted therapy: tin-117m (novel radio-isotope)
  • Reduces synovitis and relieves chronic canine elbow OA pain
  • Targets pro-inflammtory macrophages
  • Very long-lasting -- up to one year with only one IA injection
  • Just once a year, IF NEEDED
  • No systemic or local side effects; a veterinary device, not a drug
  • Minimally-invasive, outpatient procedure
  • Multimodal

Synovetin OA® redefines conservative management of chronic OA— transforming the treatment approach with 1 minimally-invasive procedure that provides safety and long-term efficacy.2

Synovetin OA® transforms the treatment of canine osteoarthritis1

Improves mobility so dogs can be life-loving pets again

Effectiveness was demonstrated in a multi-center study2

Sites included Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists, Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine, and University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine.

3 validation metrics confirm formidable and durable treatment effect:

  • Effectiveness evaluated in Grade 1 & 2 and Grade 3 elbow OA
  • Dogs were given a single injection in 1 or 2 elbows and followed for 12 months
  • Study population included 69 dogs and 92 elbows

Synovetin OA® is an effective new tool in treating canine elbow osteoarthritis (OA).

Overall Treatment Success2*

Dogs with Grade 1 & 2 Elbow OA—
92%†

92%

1 elbow treated; n=12/13

Dogs with Grade 3 Elbow OA—
71.4%

71%

Both elbows treated; n=10/14

*Overall treatment success based on a composite of force plate, Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI), and clinician lameness assessments for the label dose.

Clinician’s lameness assessment—
Grade 1 & 2 Elbow OA

Dogs given the label dose had a mean reduction in overall lameness score from baseline at each post-treatment interval—1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months2

9 to 12 months

Reductions in mean clinician’s lameness assessment scores for dogs with Grade 3 elbow OA were seen at 3, 6, and 9 months

 

Force plate gait analysis—Grade 1 & 2 Elbow OA

82% of dogs showed significant increase in peak vertical force and/or mean vertical impulse after just 1 injection.

82%

Measurements taken at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months.
Treatment Success = an improvement in PF and/or IMP during follow-up visit compared to baseline. n=22 dogs
PF=peak vertical force;
IMP=mean vertical impulse

Canine brief pain inventory instrument—Grade 1 & 2 and Grade 3 Elbow OA2

In Grade 1& 2 OA, mean PSS and PIS scores showed statistically significant improvement at all time intervals compared to baseline

There was statistical agreement between clinician and pet owner assessments.2

PSS=pain severity score;
PIS=pain interference score

particle

The optimal-sized (~2-20 microns) particles are small enough to be engulfed by macrophages, but large enough to remain in the joint space.4

  • Therapeutic conversion electrons have a range of only 300 microns (0.3mm)4
  • Tin-117m decays to harmless microparticles of inert tin and is removed from the body via lymphatics while clinical response continues1

autoradiography

Autoradiography showed Synovetin OA® was localized in synoviocytes throughout all treated elbow joints.1

Safety was demonstrated throughout the clinical trial program1,2

Laboratory, excretion, and dosimetry results were unremarkable for all dogs tested1

Minimally invasive; low bleeding risk

Synovetin OA® can be safely and effectively used in conjunction with many other multimodal treatments.1*

Treated dogs can return home same day as treatment2,5†

  • Dogs are free to resume all normal activities as they are able, like walking or running
  • No labeled need for restraint
  • Counsel pet parents to follow release instructions
    • There are guidelines on the amount of time that can be spent in close proximity for at least 2 weeks following treatment

*Clinical studies of Synovetin OA® did not exclude other OA treatments; consequently, a number of dogs received other treatments sporadically during the 12-month studies.
†Please see release instructions.

lab
Synovetin OA® can be re-administered annually after a previous treatment for easy, long-term control of chronic OA and ongoing patient relationships.

Synovetin OA® delivers sustained, long-term OA relief.1
