Who may be able to join

  • Osteoarthritis of hip joint requiring total hip arthroplasty

Who cannot join

About this study

The investigators determined whether

  1. new short, metaphyseal-fitting cementless anatomical femoral stem provides major functional improvements
  2. radiographically secure implant fixation is achieved with this new stem
  3. the bone content is preserved at the baseline level or above at the final follow-up
  4. these procedures are associated with early failure and complications.
Read the detailed description

To attempt reduction of stress shielding and thigh pain as well as to improve survivorship, a new short, metaphyseal-fitting cementless anatomical femoral stem was developed. The question arises as to whether it is possible to obtain rigid fixation of the stem without diaphyseal fixation in the young as well as in the elderly patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical and radiographic results of the new short, metaphyseal-fitting cementless anatomical femoral stem in the young as well as in the elderly patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Harris hip score

    This is a verified scoring tool for measuring hip function.

    Measured: At least 5 years after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Improvement in the Range of Motion

    The change in the hip range motion compared to the initial and the last measurement.

    Measured: At least 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Total Hip Arthroplasty in people with Osteonecrosis and Osteoarthritis, run by Ewha Womans University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 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 1 May 2019. 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 South Korea. 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 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?

Harris hip score (time frame: At least 5 years after surgery). 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 1 May 2019.
