- The comparison between the Agilus injection and the saline control injection groups in the proportion of subjects experiencing a reduction in the assessment of pain determined by the AOS subscale for pain. [ Time Frame: At 4, 12 and 26 weeks post 3rd injection ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Secondary effectiveness parameters that will be evaluated include the following that evaluate pain, function, subject's global assessment, quality of life and an individual subject responder analysis. [ Time Frame: At 4, 12 and 26 weeks post 3rd injection ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:
The objective of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of Agilus to a saline injection (control) in the treatment of mild to moderate ankle osteoarthritis. This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, saline controlled, prospective study with two (2) treatment groups. The active group will receive one injection of Agilus per week for three consecutive weeks for a total of three injections. The control group will receive one injection of normal saline per week for three consecutive weeks for a total of three injections. Follow up visits will occur at 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 26 weeks following the third injection.
