The purpose of this study is to demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Simpliciti Shoulder System in total shoulder arthroplasty.

Being tested
Simpliciti™ Shoulder System

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Simpliciti™ Shoulder SystemExperimentalThe Simpliciti™ Shoulder System is intended for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty of the shoulder.
Receives: Device: Simpliciti™ Shoulder System

What is being measured

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

  1. Device Success Rate

    A subject is a Patient Success at 24-months if:

    1. There is NO continuous radiolucent line around the prosthesis; and
    2. The adjusted Constant Score is > 85 (successful outcome); and
    3. They did not have revision surgery; and
    4. They did not have a system-related serious adverse event.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Quality of Life

    Simple Shoulder Test

    1 (worse) - 12 (best)

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Range of Motion

    • Elevation in the scapula plane
    • Internal rotation with arm at the side
    • External rotation with arm at the side

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Strength

    Strength of a Specific shoulder motion as measured in pounds of force on a dynamometer machine supplied by Tornier

    Measured: 24 months

  4. Device Parameters

    Devices will be assessed to determine percentage of participants that demonstrated the following after total shoulder arthroplasty:

    • Migration
    • Osteolysis
    • Subsidence

    Measured: 24 months

  5. American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon Score

    0 (worst) - 100 (best)

    Measured: 24 Months

  6. Pain: Visual Analog Scale

    0 (best) - 10 (worst)

    Measured: 24 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Simpliciti™ Shoulder System in people with Primary Generalized (Osteo)Arthritis and Post-traumatic Arthrosis of Other Joints, Upper Arm, run by Stryker Trauma and Extremities at 14 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 6 inclusion and 25 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 25 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Apr 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Device Success Rate (time frame: 24 months). 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 25 Apr 2023.
