About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Multicenter Clinical Study in Elderly Chinese Subjects to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of the SS Bipolar Head and SL-TWIN Stem With Bipolar Head and SL-PLUS Stem in Hemiarthroplasty of the Hip

This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical study in elderly Chinese subjects to compare the safety and efficacy of the SS Bipolar Head and SL-TWIN Stem with Bipolar Head and SL-PLUS Stem in hemiarthroplasty of the hip

Read the detailed description

Elderly patients, especially post-menopausal women, often suffer a femoral neck fracture due to osteoporosis, even with very little trauma. Femoral neck fracture is a common disease in elderly patients, it accounts for 3.6% of total body fractures. In China, as the population continues to age and life expectancy increases, the incidence of femoral neck fracture has significantly increased.

Hip replacement surgery includes total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemiarthroplasty (HAP). Hemiarthroplasty of the hip involves replacement of the diseased, affected, or broken femoral head and/or neck with a prosthetic component. Hemiarthroplasty does not involve resurfacing of the acetabulum, and therefore a bipolar or unipolar prosthetic head articulates against the host acetabular articular cartilage. Avoiding the need, when appropriate, to resurface the acetabulum helps to minimize surgical trauma, operative time and dislocation risk, while preserving acetabular bone stock. These also result in shorter bed stay and faster recovery comparing with the THA.

There has been an increase in imported hip prostheses during the past decade, so that surgeons now have more choices of implants. However, the high cost of imported prostheses has become a barrier to the development of hip replacement in China and caused many patients requiring immediate hip replacement to have to delay or miss their surgery. The development and promotion of high-quality domestic joint implants and surgical instruments is the key to the development of joint replacement technique in China.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of subjects implanted with the SS Bipolar Head + SL-TWIN Stem compared to a randomized concurrent control group of subjects implanted with the Bipolar Head + SL-PLUS Stem in terms of mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) at 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Harris Hip Score

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Composite Clinical Success, as indicated by A) No revision of any device component; and B) Total Harris Hip Score greater than or equal to 80 (excellent to good score); and C) Radiologic success.

    A successful individual outcome for a subject in hemiarthroplasty will be characterized at 1 year postoperative by a composite of three success criteria:

    1. No revision of any device component; and B. Total Harris Hip Score greater than or equal to 80 (excellent to good score); and C. Radiologic success.

    Measured: 1 year post-operative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SS Bipolar Head + SL-TWIN Stem and Bipolar Head + SL-PLUS Stem in people with Femoral Neck Fractures, run by Smith & Nephew Orthopaedics (Beijing) Limited at 5 sites in China.

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 13 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 2 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in China. 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?

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: 1 year post-operative). 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 2 Mar 2018.
