About this study

Official title: A Radiographic Study of Patients Treated With the BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ PK Interference Screw for ACL Repair With Soft Tissue Fixation

The study seeks to document the bone in-growth into the BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL PK screw as measured by CT scans. Patients' improvement in pain and function will also be followed through various outcome measures.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the current study is to assess bone in-growth in the BIOSURE™ HEALICOIL™ Interference screw in the tibial tunnel of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction with soft tissue grafts; tunnel widening and change in IKDC knee and subjective scores will also be documented.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Deficiency of Anterior Cruciate Ligament, run by Smith & Nephew, Inc..

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 5 inclusion and 11 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 7 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Bone In-growth measured by CT scans (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT02382341, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 7 Sep 2020.
