  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patient is undergoing primary hip surgery for symptomatic Non-inflammatory Degenerative Joint Disease (NIDJD). Composite diagnosis of NIDJD includes osteo/ degenerative arthritis, traumatic arthritis, congenital hip dysplasia and avascular necrosis.
  • Patient is 21 years of age or older at the time of surgery.
  • Patient is skeletally mature (tibial and femoral epiphyses are closed).
  • Patient is willing and able to return for follow-up as specified by the study protocol over a ten (10) year post-operative follow-up period; including 5 years of in-clinic visits followed by 5 years of mail-in questionnaire follow-up.
  • Patient is female and of childbearing age, for whom a negative urine pregnancy test is obtained immediately prior to surgery.
  • Patient does not meet any of the Exclusion Criteria.
  • Patient agrees to participate and sign the Informed Consent Form.

Who cannot join

  • Patient will be less than 21 years old at the time of surgery.
  • Patient is skeletally immature.
  • Patient presents with inflammatory degenerative joint disease.
  • Patient has evidence of active infection, but not including asymptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) if treated with antibiotics preoperatively.
  • Patient is female and of child bearing age and is pregnant or whose pregnancy status is unknown.
  • Patient has neurological or musculoskeletal disease that may adversely affect gait or weight bearing.
Show all 19Show fewer
  • Patient has known presence of active metastatic or neoplastic disease (active is defined as within the past 5 years. Does not include basal cell carcinoma in cases when a subject with this diagnosis has undergone radical excision of the lesion, has pathological proof that the lesion has clean and clear peripheral and deep borders, and the location of the lesion is not near the operative hip or on the affected extremity).
  • Patient has poor bone quality (e.g., osteoporosis) where, in the investigator's opinion, there is inadequate bone to support the implant(s).
  • Patient has the presence of a previous prosthetic hip replacement device (any type, including THA, surface replacement arthroplasty, endoprosthesis, etc.) in the operative hip joint.
  • Patient is known to have presence of a highly communicable disease or diseases that may limit follow-up (e.g., immuno-compromised conditions, hepatitis, active tuberculosis, etc.).
  • Patient is a prisoner.
  • Patient is obese where obesity is defined as a Body Mass Index (BMI) greater than 35. BMI = Weight (lbs.) ÷ Height (in.)2 x 703
  • Patient has neuropathic joints.
  • Patient has known allergies to the implant materials.
  • Patient is unwilling or unable to comply with postoperative rehabilitation instructions and weight bearing limitations.
  • Patient's life expectancy is < 5 years due to chronic diseases such as cancer, congestive heart failure, etc.
  • Patient is unwilling or unable (e.g. cases of reduced mental capacity) to return for follow-up as specified by the study protocol over a ten (10) year post-operative follow-up period.
  • Patient has reduced mental capability (permanent or temporary) that would prevent following pre-surgical and post-surgical instructions.
  • Patient otherwise meets the study criteria but refuses to consent in writing to participate in the study.

About this study

Official title: Post Approval Study: NOVATION Ceramic Articulation Hip System A Multi-Center, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Mid and Long-Term Safety and Effectiveness of the Exactech NOVATION Ceramic Articulation Hip System

The purpose of this study is to collect and evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness data on the Exactech® NOVATION ™ Ceramic Articulation Hip System ("NOVATION ™ Ceramic AHS").

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to collect and evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness data on the Exactech® NOVATION ™ Ceramic Articulation Hip System ("NOVATION ™ Ceramic AHS"). Ten (10) years of follow-up data will be collected in this study. The first five (5) years of subject follow-up will involve clinical (Harris Hip Score, adverse events), radiographic, and self-assessment evaluation. The remaining five (5) years of subject follow-up will be accomplished with an outcomes questionnaire that will be completed by the subjects to evaluate the survivorship status of their hip replacement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Novation Ceramic in people with Total Hip Replacement (Non-inflammatory), run by Exactech 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 7 inclusion and 19 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2022. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Exactech withdrew the PMA associated with the study device due to low market utilization). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Radiographic evaluation of radiolucency (time frame: Immediately post operation, 6 weeks, 6 months, annually 1-5 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 Aug 2022.
