About this study

Official title: Cemented Marathon/Corail Versus Pinnacle/Corail. Comparison of Polyethylene Wear, Component Migration and Periprosthetic Bone Mineral Density. A Randomised Study of 48 Hips Using Radiostereometry and Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry

A randomised, comparative, prospective, single-blinded trial of two hip prosthesis:

  1. Marathon cemented all-poly acetabular cup(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), Corail uncemented femoral stem(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), 32mm Alumina Biolox Forte femoral head(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana) and
  2. Pinnacle/Marathon uncemented cup(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), Corail uncemented femoral stem(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana), 32mm Alumina Biolox Forte femoral head(Depuy, Warsaw, Indiana)

There will be a further in-group randomisation to a Corail femoral stem with or without a collar, creating a number of 4 study-groups in total.

The aims of the study are:

  • To compare polyethylene wear and migration of the moderately cross-linked Marathon polyethylene in a cemented version(Marathon) and in an uncemented cup(Pinnacle/Marathon)
  • To evaluate micromigration and periacetabular bone mineral density of the 2 cups using radiostereometry(RSA)
  • To evaluate the migration patterns and proximal femoral bone density changes around the Corail stems with and without a collar
Being tested
Pinnacle/Corail with collar, Marathon/Corail with collar, Pinnacle/Corail without collar, Marathon/Corail without collar

What is being measured

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

  1. Polyethylene wear

    Comparison of polyethylene wear rates in a modular uncemented acetabular component and a cemented all-polyethylene acetabular component using radiostereometric analysis

    Measured: After 5 years of follow-up

  2. Component migration-cup

    Comparison of the migration of a modular uncemented acetabular component and a cemented all-polyethylene acetabular component using radiostereometric analysis.

    Measured: After 5 years of follow-up

  3. Periprosthetic bone mineral density

    Differences in bone mineral density around a cemented and an uncemented acetabular component using Dual X-ray absorptiometry. Differences in bone mineral density around an uncemented fully HA-coated femoral component with or without a collar using Dual X-ray absorptiometry.

    Measured: After 2 years of follow-up

  4. Component migration-stem

    Comparison of the migration of an uncemented fully HA-coated femoral component with and without a collar using radiostereometric analysis.

    Measured: After 5 years of follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical outcome

    Comparison of clinical results between study groups using HHS and PROMs

    Measured: After 5 years of follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pinnacle/Corail with collar, Marathon/Corail with collar and Pinnacle/Corail without collar in people with Arthritis of the Hip, run by Haukeland University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

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 7 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 24 Feb 2016. 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 Norway. 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.

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?

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?

Polyethylene wear (time frame: After 5 years of follow-up). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Feb 2016.
