About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study to Evaluate the ConforMIS iTotal® (CR) Knee Replacement System and iPoly XE Tibial Inserts

This study is designed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of subjects who have recently undergone surgery with the iTotal® Cruciate Retaining (CR) Total Knee Replacement System (KRS) who have also had iPoly XE Tibial Inserts implanted.

Read the detailed description

The study is prospective and single-center. Subjects will be implanted with an iTotal® CR Knee Replacement System in conjunction with an iPoly XE insert. The study will include a minimum of 50 subjects and a maximum of 60 subjects at a single center. The study site will be located in Germany. The study subjects will be followed for 10 years post implant.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • iPoly XE tibial insert with ConforMIS iTotal KRSDevice

    The implants are constructed to conform to the surface of the patient's femoral condyle and proximal tibia, replacing the damaged cartilage with a smooth articulating surface. The femoral component and tibial tray are manufactured from cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy. The tibial insert and patellar component are manufactured from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.

ConforMIS iTotal Knee with iPoly InsertExperimentalThe tibial insert being utilized in this study will be a highly-crosslinked, Vitamin-E enriched UHMWPE (iPoly XE) instead of traditional tibial inserts.
Receives: Device: iPoly XE tibial insert with ConforMIS iTotal KRS

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Device-related Complications

    Adverse events were categorized as "Device Probably Related", "Device Possibly Related", Device All Related", or "Device Not Related" by the care team for all adverse events (as per the definitions of adverse events on clinicaltrials.gov). Outcome metrics are given in the form of "Events per Patient" which was calculated by dividing the number of adverse in each category by the number of baseline patients.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Incidence of Procedure-Related Complications

    Adverse events were categorized as "Procedure Probably Related", "Procedure Possibly Related", Procedure All Related", or "Procedure Not Related" by the care team for all adverse events (as per the definitions of adverse events on clinicaltrials.gov). Outcome metrics are given in the form of "Events per Patient" which was calculated by dividing the number of adverse in each category by the number of baseline patients.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing iPoly XE tibial insert with ConforMIS iTotal KRS in people with Knee Osteoarthritis, run by Restor3D at 1 site in Germany.

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 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Incidence of Device-related Complications (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 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 16 Oct 2025.
