About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomised Controlled Monocentric Study on Acetabulum Patient-specific Pin Drilling Guides

A prospective, interventional, monocentric, controlled and randomized study will compare a conventional surgical technique to a surgical technique with the assistance of the Acetabular Cup Orientation Guide (ACOG, Materialise) System during total hip replacement (THR).

Read the detailed description

Background: The Acetabular Cup Orientation Guide(ACOG) System from MATERIALISE NV was developed and is intended to be used as a surgical instrument to assist in the positioning of acetabular cup components intra-operatively using anatomical landmarks of the pelvis that are clearly identifiable on preoperative computed tomography (CT) imaging scans.

Use of ACOG is a relative new technique. ACOG, based on CT imaging data, fit directly into the patient's anatomy and enable primary total hip replacement . Data showing extra benefit of this technique compared to conventional THR technique are not widely available.

Aim: To determine the safety of this new surgical technique compared to conventional THR.

Methods: 30 participants will be randomized to 2 groups. One group will be operated for a THR with the conventional technique and the other group will be operated for a THR with the assistance of the ACOG System. CT imaging will be taken pre and post operatively to measure cup orientation.

Being tested
THR with conventional technique, THR with Acetabular Cup Orientation Guides (ACOG)

What is being measured

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

  1. Acetabular cup positioning

    Full leg computed tomography pre-operatively and post-operatively. Cup positioning will be recorded in both groups.

    Measured: 2 Months post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Surgery time

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Acetabular cup size

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing THR with conventional technique and THR with Acetabular Cup Orientation Guides (ACOG) in people with Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by Materialise at 1 site in Belgium.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2017. 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 Belgium. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Low recruitment rate). 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?

Acetabular cup positioning (time frame: 2 Months post-operatively). 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 NCT02499523, 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 28 Mar 2017.
