About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Single Blind Study Assessing Radiological Outcomes for Massive Segmental Femoral Replacements Using Either Porous Collar or Porous Collar With HA or Porous Collar With HA and Autologous Stem Cells

The study will review the use of massive segmental replacements in the femur, which have a porous collar with and without HA, and autologous stem cell augment. This is a randomised controlled trial.

Read the detailed description

The current surgical treatment of bone cancer patients and revision limb salvage requires usage of massive endoprosthetic bone implants. The incidence of aseptic loosening is a major cause of prosthesis failure in these patients, exploring ways to reduce such failures would allow extending longevity of massive implants in a relatively young population.

Current published literature stipulates that osteointegration could improve longevity of massive implants. Evidence suggests that usage of osteointegrated hydroxyapatite (HA) coated collar would reduce the incidence of aseptic loosening around the cemented intramedullary stem in distal femoral bone prosthesis

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiological outcomes (X-ray, CT)

    radiological outcomes to determine integration of implant into bone - bone growth

    Measured: at 26 weeks (+/- 2 weeks)

  2. Radiological outcomes (X-ray, CT)

    radiological outcomes to determine integration of implant into bone - bone growth

    Measured: at 1 year (+/- 2 weeks)

  3. Radiological outcomes (X-ray, CT)

    radiological outcomes to determine integration of implant into bone - bone growth

    Measured: at 2 years (+/- 2 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Visual Analogue Score (VAS) pain score

    visual analogue pain score to determine improvement of pain over time, 0 to 10 scale will be used (0 = no pain, higher the number the worse the pain)

    Measured: up to 2 years (+/- 2 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing custom made device in people with Bone Cancer and Bone Diseases, run by Iva Hauptmannova 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 2022. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Panos Gikas, PhD FRCS (02089092300, rnoh.research@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiological outcomes (X-ray, CT) (time frame: at 26 weeks (+/- 2 weeks)). The study lists 3 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 7 Jun 2022.
