About this study

Official title: Do We Need High-Flexing Total Knee Arthroplasty to Improve the Survivorship and to Decrease the Incidence of Osteolysis? A Minimum of Ten Years of Follow-up

The purpose of this study is to determine if there are any clinical or ROM differences in total knee arthroplasty with standard NexGen LPS prosthesis and NexGen LPS-Flex prosthesis.

Read the detailed description

We therefore hypothesized: (1) the survival of the NexGen LPS-Flex prosthesis is better than standard NexGen LPS prosthesis; (2) knee function and range of motion after clinical assessment will be better in the NexGen LPS-Flex group; and (3) the incidence of osteolysis will be lower in the NexGen LPS-Flex prosthesis than standard NexGTne LPS prosthesis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Improvement in Knee Society Knee Score

    change in knee score will be compared with initial score, until mean follow up of 10.3 year

    Measured: 10 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Improvement in the range of motion

    change in the range of motion of knee joint will be compared with the initial value, until mean follow up of 10.3 years

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing legacy posterior stabilized high-flexion (NexGen LPS-Flex) and legacy posterior stabilized standard (NexGen LPS) in people with 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 5 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 30 Aug 2011. 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?

Improvement in Knee Society Knee Score (time frame: 10 years). 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 30 Aug 2011.
