      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Patients will be randomly assigned to the control and PRP groups. The method of random assignment of these two groups is block randomization. The size of the blocks is 6 people, and using Random allocation software, the sequence of assigning patients to the groups is determined, and this sequence will be kept by the transplant manager, Blinding description: This study is a double-blind study. Patients and study analysts will be unaware of the type of treatment assigned. To achieve this goal, by using a biological product in the form of disposable 5 cc syringes that are already filled by the nurse and are completely "similar" to the type of treatment received, to blind the participants in the study. Also, the people who apply the treatment will be different from the people who are responsible for examining and evaluating the patients, and the biological product packages will be labeled according to a specific code. Only the doctor and the person in charge of the transplant will know the type of treatment the patients receive.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Control group: Patients receiving 3 doses of Hyaluronic acid. The procedure will be performed in such a way that patients are injected intra-articular injection of 2 cc of hyaluronic acid in three times at 0,1 and 2 months intervals in the operating room of Royan Clinic. At the time of injection, the patient's knee is sterilized and the orthopedic surgeon will inject into the joint space under sterile conditions. After the injection, the patient is monitored for 2 hours and after this period, if there is no problem with the necessary medication and care instructions and explanation of warning signs will be discharged. Intervention 2: Intervention group: Intervention group: patients receiving 3 doses of PRP. The procedure of the intervention will be that the patients will be injected with 5 cc of PRP derived from non-autologous umbilical cord blood in the operating room of Royan Clinic on three occasions with intervals of 0, 1 and 2 months. . On the day of the knee transplant, the patient's knee will be sterilized and the orthopedic surgeon will inject into the joint space under sterile conditions. After the injection, the patient will be observed for 2 hours and after this period, if no problem occurs, he will be discharged with the necessary medication and care instructions and an explanation of the warning signs.</i_freetext>
