About this study

Official title: A Study to Demonstrate the Accuracy of Femoral Neck Resection Compared to the Pre-operatively Selected OPS™ Plan in Total Hip Arthroplasty.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the Optimized Positioning System (OPS™) planning and delivery tools using different types of surgical approaches.

Read the detailed description

Total Hip Replacement (THR) is the gold standard for treatment of severe arthritis of the hip as it relieves pain, restores function of the joint and improves quality of life for patients. The restoration of hip mechanics can be influenced by the selected femoral stem design and also by choices made by the surgeon during the surgical implantation. The combination of femoral neck resection level and angle are key factors, particularly in cementless hip arthroplasty, in determining post-operative leg length and femoral anteversion. Historically, an estimation of prosthesis sizing and positioning has been made via a process of manual or digital templating either pre or intraoperatively using images of the implants positioned over the standard AP and lateral view hip x-rays taken in advance of surgery with generic instruments used during the surgery to execute the femoral head resection at the planned level. This process has a number of limitations. The OPS™ system utilizes detailed pre-operative imaging including a CT scan to generate a plan for the femoral neck resection level and angulation based on the anatomy of the individual patient. Following validation of this plan by the operating clinician, a patient specific femoral guide instrument is generated to help facilitate the reliable delivery of the planned resection intraoperatively. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the use of the patient-specific femoral instrument in the hands of two surgeons using different prosthesis combinations and surgical approaches. A total number of 40 participants will be enrolled. Participants in this study will return for a single post-operative visit at 6 weeks to have X-rays taken and to enable any post-operative study hip related complications to be recorded. Once this has been completed, participants will be routinely followed-up by their orthopaedic surgeon as required in accordance with standard clinical practice.

What participants receive

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

  • Primary Total Hip Replacement with Trinity cup and TriFit TS stem via posterolateral surgical approach.Device

    The participant will undergo surgery using the hip prostheses and surgical approach used by their surgeon Investigator. A patient specific femoral guide, generated by the OPS™ plan preoperatively, will be used during the surgical step of femoral neck resection. These are not study specific procedures as the OPS™ system is already in use by the surgeon Investigator in their standard of practice.

  • Primary Total Hip Replacement with Trinity cup and MetaFix stem via direct anterior surgical approachDevice

    The participant will undergo surgery using the hip prostheses and surgical approach used by their surgeon Investigator. A patient specific femoral guide, generated by the OPS™ plan preoperatively, will be used during the surgical step of femoral neck resection. These are not study specific procedures as the OPS™ system is already in use by the surgeon Investigator in their standard of practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy of the final osteotomy level compared to the selected OPS™ plan preopertively.

    Accuracy of the final osteotomy level compared to the selected OPS™ plan (+ or - 3mm). Two standard of care post-operative x-rays taken at 6 weeks will be used to evaluate the positioning of the total hip prosthesis from the resultant level of resection of the femoral neck. This parameter will be measured in mm.

    Measured: 6 weeks post-op (+/- 2 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Comparison of the femoral stem size implanted compared to the selected OPS™ Plan preoperatively (± 1 size)

    The femoral stem size used during the operation will be compared to the selected one by the OPS™ Plan. This parameter will be measured in units.

    Measured: Immediate postoperative

  2. Comparison of the acetabular cup size implanted compared to the selected OPS™ Plan preoperatively.

    The acetabular cup size used during the operation will be compared to the selected one by the OPS™ Plan. This parameter will be measured in mm.

    Measured: Immediate postoperative

  3. Comparison of the femoral head size implanted compared to the selected OPS™ Plan preoperatively.

    The femoral head size used during the operation will be compared to the selected one by the OPS™ Plan. This parameter will be measured in mm.

    Measured: Immediate postoperative

  4. Measurement of any change in Leg length/ femoral head height compared to the preoperative OPS™ Plan (± 5mm).

    The postoperative Leg length / femoral head height will be measured in mm and compared to the preoperative value.

    Measured: 6 weeks post-op (+/- 2 weeks)

  5. Comparison of the acetabular cup orientation to the selected OPS™ Plan.

    The planned versus achieved acetabular cup orientation will be measured using 2D/3D registration software, in degrees.

    Measured: 6 weeks post-op (+/- 2 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty, run by Corin at 1 site 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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2021. 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 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?

Accuracy of the final osteotomy level compared to the selected OPS™ plan preopertively. (time frame: 6 weeks post-op (+/- 2 weeks)). 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 24 Sep 2021.
