About this study

Official title: A Prospective (Non)-Randomized Controlled Multicenter Clinical Study Of the Genesis ii Total Knee System in Minimally Invasive Total Knee Arthroplasty

Overall study design:

A prospective, randomized, multi-center clinical studies comparing the minimal invasive and the standard surgical total knee replacement technique (control) using the Genesis II total knee system. The study will collect efficacy, safety and socio-economical data over 2 years. An additional 5 years follow-up interval is optional. The objectives (short-term follow-up) of the study are to:

Read more
  1. Assess whether the improvement in Pain and Range of motion per Knee Society scoring system and VAS score.
  2. Assess whether there are any differences between the surgical techniques as regards complication rate.
  3. Assess whether the hospital stay and the rehabilitation time (Straight leg raise, Active/passive ROM) of the patients differs between the two techniques.
  4. Assess the x-ray mechanical alignment between the two techniques.

Attempts will be made to assess whether the collected peri-operative data (including incision length, blood loss, wound appearance, hospital readmissions and operative time) differs between the two surgical techniques.

The primary objectives (mid-term follow-up) of the study are to:

  1. Improvement in Pain and Function per Knee Society Scoring system
  2. Number and Extent of Radiographic Lucencies >2mm
  3. Revision and knee-related adverse events
  4. Improvement in Quality-of-life via the VAS score

5 investigational sites will participate and enroll a total of approximately 250 patients over a 12 months period. Thus, each site will enroll 50 patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain and Range of Motion on the short term as efficacy measurements. Occurence of Adverse Events as safety measurements

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Occurence of Adverse Events and Radiolucent lines > 2mm Range of motion on the mid term

    Measured: 2 years

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted2 Mar 2009 (estimated)
  2. Study startOct 2004
  3. Primary completionOct 2007
  4. Study completionDec 2007

Why it stopped: The results obtained 1 year after surgery were clearly indicative of the outcome and the investigators decided to terminate follow-up at that point.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing surgical technique in people with Osteoarthritis of the Knee, run by Smith & Nephew Orthopaedics AG at 1 site in Germany.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 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 Germany. 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: The results obtained 1 year after surgery were clearly indicative of the outcome and the investigators decided to terminate follow-up at that point.). 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?

Pain and Range of Motion on the short term as efficacy measurements. Occurence of Adverse Events as safety measurements (time frame: 1 year). 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 23 May 2014.
