Study Arms:
- microfracture surgery + HST003 (Type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR): This is an Intervention Model where all patients who are identified/confirmed candidates for microfracture surgery will be enrolled to receive the microfracture surgery (standard of care). Ten (10) patients will be randomized to receive the study intervention (HST003). HST003 will be injected into the microfracture defects (interstices) and fill the remainder of the defect to the cartilage margin following surgery.
- microfracture surgery only (Type: NO_INTERVENTION): This is an Intervention Model where all patients who are identified/confirmed candidates for microfracture surgery will be enrolled to receive the microfracture surgery (standard of care). Ten (10) patients will be randomized to receive the microfracture surgery (standard of care).

Based on this trial design, predict the completion outcome and termination type (if applicable).
