Trial summary

This study was designed to investigate the influence of HA-coating on bone remodeling around the cup in cementless THA. 100 patients gave informed consent to participate in a controlled randomized study between porous coated Trilogy® versus Trilogy Calcicoat®. The cup was inserted in press-fit fixation. Read more about this study

About this study

This study was designed to investigate the influence of HA-coating on bone remodeling around the cup in cementless THA.

100 patients gave informed consent to participate in a controlled randomized study between porous coated Trilogy® versus Trilogy Calcicoat®. The cup was inserted in press-fit fixation. The femoral component was a cementless porous coated titanium alloy stem (Bi-Metric®), with a modular 28 mm CrCo head. Effect parameters were Harris Hip Score (HHS) and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) determined by DEXA scanning.

Measurements revealed no difference between the two groups after 3 years, neither in clinical outcome nor in terms of periprosthetic bone density. Patients with Body Mass Index above normal regained more bone mineral than patients with normal weight. This finding supports the assumption that load is beneficial to bone remodeling. Advantages of better sealing of the bone-prosthesis interface, preventing polyethylene induced osteolysis, may still be anticipated for the 7 or 12 year follow-up examinations

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing porous coated Trilogy® and Trilogy Calcicoat® in people with Coxarthrosis, run by Northern Orthopaedic Division, Denmark at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in bone mineral density around the hip prosthesis, measured by DEXA scanning (time frame: 8-12 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Mar 2014.
