Pre-emergent herbicides would be the chemical of choice. More here: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/weeds/knotweed-control.htm ^[1]
To be honest with you, I have a deep distrust of herbicides after I used one that was supposed to kill grass, except that it also killed half a dozen juniper bushes. What if you planted more monkey grass, leaving the weed no place to grow.
