About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Non-Comparative Multi-centre Study to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of the DePuy Minimally Invasive (Preservation) Unicompartmental Knee and Instrumentation.

The primary purpose of this investigation is to evaluate the surgical performance of the DePuy Minimally Invasive (Preservation) Unicompartmental Knee and Instrumentation in a Multi-centre setting.

The secondary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the long-term survivorship of the DePuy Minimally Invasive (Preservation) Unicompartmental Knee.

Read the detailed description

Primary endpoint - to demonstrate the suitability of the developed instrumentation to safely and accurately implant the preservation Unicompartmental Knee using postoperative radiographic limb and component alignment data.

Secondary endpoints - to demonstrate the survivorship and performance of the Preservation Unicompartmental Knee using the American Knee Society clinical and radiological assessment, Oxford Knee Score and survivorship analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Preservation Unicompartmental Knee in people with Osteoarthritis, run by DePuy International at 1 site in Australia.

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 5 inclusion and 14 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 9 Jun 2015. 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 Australia. 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 was stopped early (reason given: After a review of status, request of investigators \& since similar data was available from other sources). 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?

To demonstrate the suitability of the developed instrumentation to safely and accurately implant the Preservation Unicompartmental Knee using radiographic and intra-operative assessment (time frame: 0 days). 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 9 Jun 2015.
