Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Potential patients that have undergone either a medial congruent Persona TKR or Attune TKR will be identified by the relevant orthopaedic surgeon. Control participants will be identified from an established database.

Who may be able to join

  • Aged 18 years and above*
  • Have undergone primary total knee replacement for either:
  • Osteoarthritis
  • avascular necrosis of the femur or tibia
  • Report an Oxford Knee Score greater than 34, obtained from usual clinical practice. OKS above 34 represents (range 0-48, high representing good outcome) a good outcome post-surgery.
  • Independent of study participation, patients received either commercially available Zimmer Biomet Persona MC bearing or DePuy Synthes Attune knee implants implanted in accordance with product labelling
  • 1-5 years post TKR surgery
  • An adequate understanding of written and verbal information in English in order to provide informed consent and answer the study questionnaires* * Control participants will meet same inclusion criteria except no primary TKR and OKS will not be required

Who cannot join

  • History of infection in the replaced joint and/or other local/systemic infection that may affect the prosthetic joint
  • Skeletal immaturity
  • Neuropathic arthropathy
  • Osteoporosis/any loss of musculature or neuromuscular disease that compromises the affected limb
  • Severe instability secondary to the absence of collateral ligament integrity
  • Pregnancy - routine clinical practice ensures that all female patients are asked whether they are pregnant and can safely receive x-rays or surgery as per standard consent forms
Show all 15Show fewer
  • Patient is a member of a protected population (e.g., prisoner, mentally incompetent, etc.)
  • Patient has previously received partial or total knee arthroplasty for the ipsilateral knee
  • Patients who are unable to give voluntary informed consent.
  • Patients who are unable to walk unaided (post-surgery).
  • BMI > 40
  • Control participants will meet the same exclusion criteria as TKR patients
  • Patients who suffer with cognitive impairment such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease resulting in impaired mental capacity.
  • Patients who are unable to walk unaided.
  • Patients who suffer from dizzy spells or fainting episodes.

About this study

Official title: Functional Comparison of Two Modern Designs of Total Knee Replacement - a Post-operative Comparator Gait Study Comparing Persona MC to Attune Total Knee Replacement

This study aims to compare clinical and functional outcomes of a cohort of patients that have undergone a medial congruent TKR to a similar cohort of patients that have undergone a conventional TKR and a cohort of control participants. Our null hypothesis is that there will be no difference in the functional outcome (as assessed by gait analysis) between Attune and Persona MC TKR.

Read the detailed description

This cross sectional, post-operative comparator gait study aims to compare the functional and patient reported outcomes of patients that have undergone a MC TKR to an age, gender, BMI, pre-operative diagnosis with satisfactory clinical outcome at one year (OKS > 34) matched cohort of patients undergone a modern generation TKR which utilises a gradually reducing radius of curvature on the femoral component with conventional polyethylene (Attune) to a TKR with gradually reducing radius of curvature on the femoral component but a medial congruent (MC) TKR design (Persona).

What is being measured

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

  1. Knee extensor moment

    Maximum knee extensor moment during stair descent of the operated limb

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Proportion of patients able to complete each gait assessment

    During level walking and stair ascent/descent

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  2. Gait velocity

    During level walking and stair ascent/descent

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  3. Stance time

    During level walking and stair ascent/descent

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  4. Knee flexion-extension range of motion

    During level walking, stair ascent/descent and sit to stand

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  5. Knee extension moments

    During level walking, stair ascent and sit to stand

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  6. Knee adduction moment

    During level walking and stair ascent/descent

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  7. Ground reaction forces

    During level walking and stair ascent/descent

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  8. Sit to stand time

    During a sit to stand task

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  9. Knee angular velocity

    During a sit to stand task

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  10. Total OKS

    Total score, OKS function subscale and OKS pain subscale

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  11. 2011 Knee Society Objective Knee Score

    Post-operative knee function and overall health assessment

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  12. Euro-QoL 5D (EQ-5D) index

    Quality of life

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

  13. Forgotten Joint Score

    The Forgotten Joint Score is a 12-item questionnaire completed by the patient to determine how aware they are of their joint in their everyday life.

    Measured: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Knee Osteoarthritis, run by University of Leeds at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 8 inclusion and 15 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 11 Sep 2023. 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 United Kingdom. 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: Due to ongoing issues with recruitment, it was decided it was best to terminate the study and focus resources on other priorities.). 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?

Knee extensor moment (time frame: Average 3 years ± 2 years post-surgery). 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 11 Sep 2023.
