Who may be able to join

  • Subjects with infectious, highly communicable diseases, which may limit follow-up i.e. Active tuberculosis, hepatitis, immuno-compromised conditions, etc.

About this study

Official title: Prospective, International Multi-centre, Uncontrolled, Post Marketing Surveillance Study to Monitor the Long-term Performance of a Large Metal-on-Metal (MoM) Bearing Comprising a DePuy ASR™ Cup in Conjunction With Either a DePuy ASR™ Hip Resurfacing Femoral Component or a DePuy ASR™ XL Head in Subjects With Indications Suitable for Either a Primary Resurfacing Arthroplasty or Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty

The purpose of this study is to monitor the performance of a large metal-on-metal bearing from the DePuy ASR™ System in the treatment of patients with hip joint disease requiring hip resurfacing surgery or a total hip replacement. Patients who enter the study will be evaluated at regular intervals following hip surgery using patient, clinical and x-ray assessments.

The Study was terminated with effect from 30th November 2011 following the completion of 2 year follow up assessments for those patients remaining in the study.

Please note that prior to this decision DePuy voluntarily recalled the ASR products on 24 August 2010. Additional information regarding this voluntary recall and the follow-up of patients affected by the recall can be found at the following links http://www.mhra.gov.uk/Publications/Safetywarnings/MedicalDeviceAlerts/CON155761 and http://www.depuy.com/countries_list.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing DePuy ASR™ Hip System and DePuy ASR™ XL Head / ASR™ Acetabular Cup System in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis, run by DePuy International at 8 sites in 8 countries.

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 19 inclusion and 0 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 4 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Austria, Czechia, Finland, Germany, Norway and 3 more countries. 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: DePuy discontinued this product in 4Q2009. At the time of this decision DePuy reviewed all clinical studies for this product and decided to close this Study). 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?

Kaplan-Meier survivorship calculated at the five-year time-point (time frame: 5yrs). 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 4 Aug 2016.
