About this study

Official title: Bone Forming at Prosthetic Surfaces. A Randomized Clinical F-PET/CT Study

What is the intensity of F-PET uptake in healthy and osteo arthritic femur and acetabulum, compared to the uptake adjacent to four analyzed endoprosthetic components 1½ and 6 months after surgery?

Read the detailed description

A clinical study of 26 patients, age 50-69 years, healthy unless osteoarthritis in one hip, randomized in four groups plus a reference group of same 26 patient´s contralateral healthy hip.

Intervention will be surgery with a total hip arthroplasty. The studied endoprosthetic components are: Cemented Lubinus SP II stem with a ceramic 32 mm head, a cemented Lubinus cross linked cup (Waldemar Link, Hamburg, Germany). Palacose cement with gentamycin, applied with 3:rd generation cementation technique will be used for those cemented implants.

Uncemented HA-coated Corail stem with a ceramic 32 mm head (DePuy, Johnson \& Johnson, USA), a fibrous metal Regenerex RingLoc cup (Biomet, Warsaw, Il, USA) All cups will have cross linked Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHWMP).

Clinical score, radiography and PET uptake of Fluoride tracer (SUV) adjacent to the prosthetic surfaces will be analyzed.

Conditions

Being tested
Component for acetabulum (Regenerex RingLoc cup), Components for the acetabulum (Lubinus cross linked cup), Arthroplasty components are for the femur (Cemented Lubinus SP II stem), Arthroplasty components are for the femur (Corail stem)

What is being measured

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

  1. FEMUR: to analyze difference in SUV of the 4 upper ROI's (No 1, 7, 8 and 13) analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented groups AND: to analyze SUV of the 4 upper ROI's analyzed together between each femur study group and the reference group

    There are two study groups for femur: cemented and uncemented femur prosthetic components. There are also a femur reference group.

    Measured: 6 weeks after surgery

  2. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV of all 9 ROI's analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented acetabular study groups, and to analyze SUV of all 9 ROI's analyzed together between each acetabulum study group and the reference group

    There are two study groups for acetabulum: cemented and uncemented acetabular prosthetic components. There are also an acetabular reference group.

    Measured: 6 weeks after surgery

  6. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV for each individual ROI between the 2 study groups

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months

  7. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV for each individual ROI between the cemented study group and the reference group. To analyze difference in SUV for each individual ROI between the uncemented study group and the reference group.

    Measured: 6 weeks and 6 months

  8. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV for each individual ROI for the cemented study group between the 3 time points. To analyze difference in SUV for each individual ROI for the uncemented study group between the 3 time points.

    Measured: preoperatively, 6 weeks and 6 months

  9. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV of all 9 ROI's analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented acetabular study groups

    Measured: 6 months

  10. ACETABULUM: to analyze difference in SUV of all 9 ROI's analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented acetabular study groups, and to analyze SUV of all 9 ROI's analyzed together between each acetabulum study group and the reference group

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Component for acetabulum (Regenerex RingLoc cup), Components for the acetabulum (Lubinus cross linked cup) and Arthroplasty components are for the femur (Cemented Lubinus SP II stem) in people with Osteo Arthritis, run by Uppsala University at 1 site in Sweden.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 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 Sweden. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Gösta Ullmark, MD, PhD (+46706466149, gosta.ullmark@lg.se), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

FEMUR: to analyze difference in SUV of the 4 upper ROI's (No 1, 7, 8 and 13) analyzed together between the cemented and uncemented groups AND: to analyze SUV of the 4 upper ROI's analyzed together between each femur study group and the reference group (time frame: 6 weeks after surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01623687, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Apr 2014.
