About this study

Official title: Early Stability of the Delta-TT Cup With Polyethylene Insert Compared to the Delta-TT Cup With Ceramic Insert. A Randomised RSA Study

The goal of this study is to study the stability of the Delta-TT cup with polyethylene insert and the Delta-TT cup with ceramic insert both combined with the H-MAX femoral stem by means of RSA to assess whether the differences in stiffness of the cup will have an influence on incorporation and mechanical stability.

It is hypothesized that there will be more micromotion on the short-term (<2 years) in the patients with the ceramic insert because of the higher stiffness, however, all components will be considered stable on the short and long-term.

Read the detailed description

Rationale: Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric Analysis (RSA) is a very accurate measurement technique used to obtain micromotion of the implants relative to inserted tantalum markers in the surrounding bone. Using RSA, long-term predictions of prosthetic loosening can be made based on a two years follow-up. Therefore, it is recommended to analyse all (new) prosthetic components by means of RSA.

Objective: The goal of this study is to study in a randomised trial the stability of the Delta-TT cup with polyethylene insert and the Delta-TT cup with ceramic insert both combined with the H-MAX femoral stem by means of RSA to assess whether the differences in stiffness of the cup will have an influence on incorporation and mechanical stability. It is hypothesized that there will be more micromotion on the short-term (<2 years) in the patients with the ceramic insert because of the higher stiffness, however, all components will be considered stable on the short and long-term. Secondary goal is to compare the stability of the C2 femoral stem, to the H-MAX femoral stem as well as to compare it to relevant migration results of similar stems from the literature. These RSA results will contribute to knowledge about the early stability and long-term prosthetic loosening of these cementless stems.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in stability

    Stability will be assessed with Roentgen Stereophotogrammetric Analysis (RSA). RSA will be used to determine the micromotion of the femur and cup components with respect to the bone.The RSA data of the components will be described in terms of translational and rotational movements.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change from Baseline in Quality of Life

    Quality of Life (QoL) will be assessed with the questionaire EuroQoL 5D (EQ- 5D)

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Change from Baseline in Quality of Life

    Quality of Life (QoL) will be assessed with the questionaire EuroQoL 5D (EQ- 5D)

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Change from Baseline in Physical Function

    Physical Function will be assessed with the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score - Physical Function Short Form (HOOS-PS)

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Change from Baseline in Physical Function

    Physical Function will be assessed with the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score - Physical Function Short Form (HOOS-PS)

    Measured: 5 years

  5. Change from Baseline in Physical Function and Pain

    Physical Function will be assessed with the Oxford Hip Score (OHS)

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Change from Baseline in Physical Function and Pain

    Physical Function will be assessed with the Oxford Hip Score (OHS)

    Measured: 5 years

  7. Change from Baseline in Pain

    Pain will be assessed with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    Measured: 2 years

  8. Change from Baseline in Pain

    Pain will be assessed with a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing H-MAX stem & Delta-TT cup + polyethylene, H-MAX stem & Delta-TT cup + ceramic and C2 stem & Delta-TT cup + ceramic in people with Osteoarthrosis, run by JointResearch at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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 13 Oct 2021. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Change from Baseline in stability (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT03093038, 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 13 Oct 2021.
