About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Non-controlled, Clinical Investigation of ArComXL® Polyethylene in Total Hip Replacement

The purpose of this data collection is to determine long term survival rate of ArComXL® highly cross-linked polyethylene

Read the detailed description

Approximately 500 patients (cases) will be enrolled in this data collection effort and 10-year follow-up will be attempted. Follow-up will be obtained by sending a questionnaire directly to the patients by mail. The follow-up will be annually and only survivorship data will be collected.

This data collection project was developed in order to determine the actual long-term (10-year) survival rate of Biomet's ArCom XL highly cross-linked polyethylene. Data will be collated for uncemented cases only. This will eliminate the possibility of cement or cement debris being a confounding variable.

The data gathered will be collated and used to provide feedback to designing engineers, support marketing efforts, and answer potential questions from reimbursement agencies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis and Avascular Necrosis, run by Zimmer Biomet at 5 sites in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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 30 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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.

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?

Incidence of revisions and removals (time frame: Annually through 10 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 30 Mar 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
