About this study

Official title: Post-Market Surveillance of the Wright Medical Technology Metal-on-Metal Total Hip System (FDA 522 Order)

This study is in response to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) call to all manufacturers with 510(k) clearance for metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) devices to conduct postmarket surveillance studies. MicroPort has various acetabular shells, acetabular liners, fixation screws, femoral heads, femoral stems, modular necks, and proximal bodies currently cleared for MoM indications. Together these components comprise the Wright Medical Technology (WMT) MoM THA System. The primary objective of the study is to determine the incidence of adverse local tissue reactions (ALTR) in each THA implanted with the WMT MoM THA System overall and to create cross-sectional epochs of ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation.

What participants receive

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

  • Wright Medical Technology Metal-on-Metal Total Hip SystemDevice

    Subjects in Group 1 previously implanted prior to the study start date will be identified from Investigator records. Collected data will be evaluated in aggregate and cross-sectioned by year of implantation. Subjects will be cross-sectioned by the time that has elapsed between implantation and the initial visit (e.g. 5 years, 6 years) using contiguous visit windows (number of years + 6 months). Subject data will be grouped in order to create cross-sectional epochs of ≤ 8 years and > 8 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Adverse Local Tissue Reactions (ALTR)

    To determine the incidence rate of ALTR in subjects implanted with WMT MoM THA System (Group 1)

    Measured: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Determine chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels across time intervals

    Cobalt and chromium metal ion levels will be measured in whole blood and serum from subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System (Group 1) at each defined cross-section interval.

    Measured: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation

  2. Establish baseline for chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels across time intervals

    Analyze difference in chromium and cobalt whole blood and serum ion levels in subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System (Group 1) versus control subjects (Group 2) cross-sectionally.

    Measured: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation

  3. Compare functional outcomes of subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System with and without ALTR (Group-1 subjects).

    Calculate and compare composite hip outcomes scores, via the validated HOOS scores, in Group 1 subjects with ALTR versus Group 1 subjects without ALTR

    Measured: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation

  4. Compare cobalt and chromium metal ion levels in subjects implanted with the WMT MoM THA System with and without ALTR (Group-1 subjects).

    Analyze difference in cobalt and chromium metal ion levels from Group 1 subjects with ALTR versus Group 1 subjects without ALTR

    Measured: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis, Hip and Hip Disease, run by MicroPort Orthopedics Inc. at 4 sites in United States.

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 17 inclusion and 8 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 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. 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?

Rate of Adverse Local Tissue Reactions (ALTR) (time frame: ≤ 8 years and > 8 years, since implantation). 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 13 Oct 2022.
