About this study

Official title: Efficacy of a New Resurfacing Hip Prosthesis. A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study

The purpose of this study is to compare the articular surface replacement (ASR) prosthesis placed by the conventional positioning method and the ASR prosthesis placed by 'computer assisted surgery' (CAS) in variation between pre planned position of the femoral component and the actual position of the femoral component of the prosthesis. The hypothesis is that this variation is larger with the conventional positioning method than when CAS is used.

Read the detailed description

For patients who suffer from end stage of osteoarthritis of the hip, a joint replacement could result in an obvious improvement of the quality of life. However, because of the life expectation and high level of activity of young and active patients, the conventional total hip replacement does not offer an optimal solution.

An alternative to a total hip replacement in young and active patients is the resurfacing hip prostheses. The articular surface replacement (ASR) hip prostheses can be placed by the conventional positioning method and by using 'computer assisted surgery' (CAS). The hypothesis is that the positioning of the femoral component by the conventional positioning method will show a larger variation between pre planned and actual position than when CAS is used.

This study will compare the results of those who had an ASR prosthesis placed by the conventional positioning method with those patients in whom the ASR prosthesis was placed using CAS.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip prosthesisDevice

    a DePuy ASR™ primary resurfacing femoral and acetabular component (DePuy International Ltd, Leeds, UK). The cement that will be used is one dose of DePuy SmartSet® GHV 40 gram, a high-viscosity cement with gentamycin (DePuy CMW, Blackpool, UK).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. pre planned position of the femoral component preoperatively (stem-shaft-angle)

    Measured: within 8 weeks before surgery

  2. actual position of the femoral component postoperatively (stem-shaft-angle)

    Measured: within one week after surgery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Harris Hip Score

    Measured: preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively

  2. Hip pain

    Measured: preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively

  3. Assessments of the position of femoral component (biomechanical parameters) at the X-rays

    Measured: preoperatively, during the clinical phase and at 6 weeks, 3, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively

  4. Physical Activity Scale for Individuals with Physical Disabilities (PASIPD)

    Measured: preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively

  5. Percentage of dynamic and static activities measured by the Rotterdam Activity Monitor (RAM)

    Measured: preoperatively and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively

  6. Quality of life

    Measured: preoperatively and at 6 weeks, 3, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively

  7. Early complications

    Measured: within 3 months after surgery

  8. Later complications

    Measured: longer than 3 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Articular Surface Replacement (ASR) hip prosthesis in people with Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Erasmus Medical Center at 6 sites in Netherlands.

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 2 inclusion and 20 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 1 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Netherlands. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

pre planned position of the femoral component preoperatively (stem-shaft-angle) (time frame: within 8 weeks before surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00391937, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Mar 2013.
