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 to 99 years
- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Adult, Older adult
Study population: 100 subjects are to be enrolled in this clinical investigation. The clinical investigation has been designed to follow the surgeon's standard of care for joint arthroplasty subjects, which entails clinical evaluation on a regular ongoing basis, or as needed should the subject become symptomatic in the treated joint.
Who may be able to join
- Subject is willing to sign the informed consent.
- Subject is willing and able to comply with postoperative scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations.
- Subject is male or non-pregnant female and 18 years or older at the time of surgery.
- Subject has one or more of the following:
- Aseptic necrosis of the humeral head
- Painful, disabling joint disease of the shoulder resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
- Failed previous total shoulder replacement, resurfacing or other procedure
Who cannot join
- Subject has an active or suspected latent infection in or about the shoulder joint.
- Subject has mental or neuromuscular disorder which would create an unacceptable risk of prosthesis instability, prosthesis fixation failure or complications in postoperative care.
- Subject has bone stock compromised by disease, infection or prior implantation which cannot provide adequate support and/or fixation to the prosthesis.
- Subject has anticipated activities which would impose high stresses on the prosthesis and its fixation.
- Subject is obese such that he/she produces a load on the prosthesis which can lead to failure of fixation of the device or to failure of the device itself.
- Subject has absent, irreparable or non-functioning rotator cuff and other essential muscles.
- Subject has concomitant disease(s) which may significantly affect the clinical outcome.
- Subject has traumatic or pathologic fracture of the proximal humerus.

About this study
This investigation is a prospective, multicenter clinical investigation. It is anticipated that a total of one hundred (100) subjects will be enrolled at approximately 4-7 sites. The clinical investigation has been designed to follow the surgeon's standard of care for joint arthroplasty subjects, which entails clinical evaluation on a regular ongoing basis, or as needed should the subject become symptomatic in the treated joint.
Read the detailed description
The objective of this clinical investigation is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy/performance of the ReUnion TSA System. Efficacy/performance of the procedure will be measured the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score. Safety of the ReUnion TSA System will be demonstrated through reporting of device-related intra-operative and post-operative Adverse Events (AEs). Enrolled subjects will be assessed at Pre-Operative, Operative/Discharge, and at 6 Weeks, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months and annually thereafter up to 10 years following the index procedure.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ReUnion TSA SystemDevice
The ReUnion TSA System is designed as an anatomical total shoulder or hemi-shoulder endoprosthesis to address advanced arthritic disorders affecting the shoulder joint in subjects having intact or repairable rotator cuff function. The ReUnion TSA System consists of a completely modular shoulder platform including a Humeral Stem, Humeral Head and Glenoid. The intended purposes of the ReUnion TSA System are to achieve pain relief, improvement of range of motion and restoration or improvement of the shoulder function while ensuring long-term replacement of the shoulder joint with sufficient stability of all endoprosthesis components.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| ReUnion TSA System | Subject with one or more of the following diagnoses will be treated with the ReUnion TSA System:
* Aseptic necrosis of the humeral head
* Painful, disabling joint disease of the shoulder resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
* Failed previous total shoulder replacement, resurfacing or other procedure Receives: Device: ReUnion TSA System |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score
The primary endpoint of the clinical investigation is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the device to the selected literature controls, as measured by the ASES Shoulder Score at 24 Months post-operative. Scores range from 0 to 100 with a score of 0 indicating a worse shoulder condition and 100 indicating a better shoulder condition.
Measured: 24 months
Secondary outcomes (2)
Safety Will be Measured by Capturing the Incidence Rate of Device-related Intra-operative and Post-operative Adverse Events Will be Measured.
Secondary outcome measures to assess safety by capturing the incidence rate of device-related intra-operative adverse events.
Measured: 24 mths
Efficacy Will be Measured by Monitoring All Implant Survivorship in All Subjects Who Have the Total or Partial Prosthesis With Full or Partial Implant Survival.
Secondary outcome measures to assess efficacy by monitoring all implant survivorship in all subjects enrolled who have the ReUnion RFX System.
Measured: From Baseline to last recorded follow-up (~27 Months)

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 Jan 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score (time frame: 24 months). 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 31 Jan 2025.
