Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Other - PTP-001

3. Target knee pain = 20 and = 40 out of 50 the WOMAC®NRS 3.1 pain questionnaire (sum of 5 questions) at screening and baseline
4. Onset of symptomatic OA of the target knee was at least 6 months prior to screening

7. Willingness to remain on the same oral "rescue" (as needed) analgesic as the only pharmacologic treatment for knee pain during the study
8. Willingness to abstain from taking any illicit or unauthorized medications for treatment of OA or any other concurrent condition during the study
9. Written informed consent is obtained from the participant

6. Presence of active infection of the target knee or systemic infection requiring treatment within the 3 months prior to screening
7. Clinical diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, etc.) established by clinical history, examination, or serology
8. Participant is receiving, has received, or plans to receive any of the following therapies

* Prior administration of hyaluronic acid, extended release corticosteroid (e.g., Zilretta®), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), or stem cell therapies by intra-articular injection(s) of the target knee within 6 months prior to screening
* Prior intra-articular corticosteroid within 3 months prior to screening or into any other joint within 30 days prior to screening
* Current chronic systemic use of corticosteroids in doses exceeding 10 mg prednisolone-equivalents daily
* Treatment with any investigational therapy (drug, device, or biologic) within 3 months prior to screening or is planned for the duration of the study
* Treatment with immunosuppressive medication or chemotherapy within the past 5 years
9. Chronic use of narcotics or alcohol abuse within the past 6 months prior to screening

11. Participant previously underwent arthroplasty of the target knee
12. Presence of joint instability or complaints of locking, intermittent limitation in range of motion, or loose body sensation, suggestive of internal derangement of the knee (either extremity)

14. Diagnosis of lower extremity gout or pseudo-gout in the past 6 months
15. Osteonecrosis of either knee
16. Significant acute (within the past 3 months) injury to the target knee
17. History of receiving a solid organ or hematologic transplant
18. History of malignancy, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy for malignancy within the past 5 years, except for basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
19. History of prior radiation therapy of the target knee
20. History of autoimmune disease affecting the musculoskeletal system
21. Known (documented) history of acquired immune deficiency syndrome or human immunodeficiency virus
22. Any condition causing pain in or around the target knee (e.g., radiating pain, pain in another region of the ipsilateral lower extremity) that may interfere with assessment(s) of the target knee
23. Other chronic pain anywhere in the body that requires the chronic use of analgesic medications, such as fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain, low back pain, etc.
24. Presence of contraindications for use of 3 g/day of orally administered paracetamol/acetaminophen due to known hypersensitivity or hepatic impairment.
25. Known presence of any concurrent medical condition (e.g., hematologic renal, hepatic, cardiac, or coagulation abnormalities) that in the investigator's judgment would interfere with the required study assessments and study participation
26. Participant is involved in litigation (e.g., worker's compensation) for a medical condition or injury at any anatomical site
