About this study

Official title: Randomized Control Trial Comparing Zimmer Biomet Persona Medial Congruent Versus Posterior Stabilized Total Knee Arthroplasty for Treatment of Knee Arthritis Using the ROSA Knee System

A randomized, controlled study comparing two total knee implant devices, Persona medial congruent (MC) vs posterior stabilized (PS). These surgeries will be performed using the ROSA robotic system. Patients will be followed up to 5 years.

Being tested
Zimmer-Biomet Persona Medial Congruent (MC) Bearing Design, Zimmer-Biomet Persona Posterior-Stabilized (PS) Bearing Design

What participants receive

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

  • Zimmer-Biomet Persona Medial Congruent (MC) Bearing DesignDevice

    TKA will be performed using the MC Bearing Design. The MC bearing provides medial stability and lateral mobility to facilitate more natural motion.

  • Zimmer-Biomet Persona Posterior-Stabilized (PS) Bearing DesignDevice

    TKA will be performed using the PS Bearing Design. The PS bearings are designed to provide ±1.5 degrees varus/valgus constraint and ± 5.5 degrees internal/external rotation constraint.

What is being measured

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

  1. Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS, JR)

    KOOS, JR contains 7 items from the original KOOS survey. Items are coded from 0 to 4, none to extreme respectively. KOOS, JR is scored by summing the raw response (range 0-28) and then converting it to an interval score. The interval score ranges from 0 to 100 where 0 represents total knee disability and 100 represents perfect knee health.

  17. European Quality of Life Five Dimension (EQ-5D) Score

    The EQ-5D comprises five questions on mobility, self care, pain, usual activities, and psychological status with three possible answers for each item (1=no problem, 2=moderate problem, 3=severe problem. A summary index with a maximum score of 1 can be derived from these five dimensions by conversion with a table of scores. The maximum score of 1 indicates the best health state, by contrast with the scores of individual questions, where higher scores indicate more severe or frequent problems. In addition, there is a visual analogue scale (VAS) to indicate the general health status (0-100) with 100 indicating the best health status.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Zimmer-Biomet Persona Medial Congruent (MC) Bearing Design and Zimmer-Biomet Persona Posterior-Stabilized (PS) Bearing Design in people with Total Knee Arthroplasty, run by NYU Langone Health 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 4 inclusion and 6 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Vinay Aggarwal, MD (202 250 0679, Vinay.Aggarwal@nyulangone.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS, JR) (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 24 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 29 May 2026.
