Study population: Patients will be selected for recruitment into the study from the general diagnosis population of patients requiring a primary hip arthroplasty, due to symptomatic painful degenerative joint diseases (NDJD). Patients requiring a revision of a previous failed stem cannot be enrolled into the clinical evaluation.

Who may be able to join

  • Both genders
  • Age ≥ 18 years old
  • Life expectancy over 5 years
  • Any race
  • Ambulatory patients
  • Painful primary coxarthrosis
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Painful secondary coxarthrosis
  • Avascular necrosis
  • Willingness to comply with rehabilitation and study evaluation and ability to return for follow-up visits
  • Signed study-specific Informed Consent Form

Who cannot join

  • Body mass index over 28 kg/m2 for the modular version
  • Requiring revision of previous standard femoral stem
  • Symptomatic OA of the knees, spine, ankles or contralateral hip, if it can interfere with the evaluation of the target hip according to the Investigator
  • Previous hip replacement (resurfacing or THR) on the contralateral side and whose outcome is achieving an HHS< 60 points
  • Significant proven or suspicious infection of the target hip
  • Any serious infectious disease before the study according to the Investigator
Show all 21Show fewer
  • Muscular insufficiency that may compromise functional recovery
  • Proven osteopenia and osteoporosis severe enough to compromise the stem support according to the Investigator
  • Known or suspicious hypersensitivity to the metal of the implant
  • Recurrent medical history of immune-mediated reactions or other systemic immune disorders
  • Vascular insufficiency or peripheral neuropathy of lower limbs severe enough to interfere with the study evaluation according to the Investigator
  • Current treatment or treatment for any malignancy within the previous 2 years before the preoperative visit
  • Previous organ transplant
  • Any intercurrent chronic disease or condition that may interfere with the completion of the 60-month follow-up, such as liver disease, severe coronary disease, or other clinically significant condition that the Investigator feels may affect the study evaluation
  • Known co-existent medical condition where death is anticipated within five years due to the pre-existing medical condition
  • Any clinically significant finding that would place the patient at health risk, impact the study, or affect the completion of the study
  • Current alcoholism, and/or any known current addiction to pain medications or drugs
  • Any psychiatric illness that would prevent comprehension of the details and nature of the study
  • Participation in any experimental drug/device study within the 6 months prior to the preoperative visit

About this study

Official title: A Multicentre, Prospective, Observational Clinical Study Evaluating the Outcomes of a Cementless Metaphyseal Short Stem After Hip Arthroplasty

Post-marketing clinical study,international, multi-centre, prospective, observational. The investigation will be carried out in 2 sites in Europe for a maximum total number of 160 patients.The aim of this study is to assess clinical, radiographic and subjective outcomes after hip arthroplasty with a cementless metaphyseal MINIMA short stem, define the survivorship of the implant and identify possible risk factors that may lead to failure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Total Hip Arthroplasty, run by Limacorporate S.p.a at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 21 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 23 Apr 2024. 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 Italy. 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 (HHS) (time frame: 24 months). 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 23 Apr 2024.
