Trial summary

Perimarticular fracture bone defect is a common and complicated clinical disease. The current treatment for this type of injury is anatomical reduction of the fracture, where the bone defect is filled with artificial, autologous or allogeneic bone in granular form, and then fixed with plates and screws.

About this study

Perimarticular fracture bone defect is a common and complicated clinical disease. The current treatment for this type of injury is anatomical reduction of the fracture, where the bone defect is filled with artificial, autologous or allogeneic bone in granular form, and then fixed with plates and screws. However, these bone filler materials exist in a loose accumulation state and cannot form an effective overall support force for the joint. The applicant realized three dimensional (3D) printing of WE43 magnesium alloy with personalized design and porous overall structure, and developed high-temperature heat treatment technology to slow its degradation, which effectively realized the dual stability of degradation rate of magnesium alloy support body and overall structure during the bone repair period. This project will optimize the design of 3D printed WE43 magnesium alloy full-structure in-bone support, and establish a metamaterial pore structure design platform that regulates the physical properties and degradation behavior of porous implants. Fracture from proximal humerus, distal radius and tibial plateau

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection of Magnesium alloy metabolism

    Blood routine, electrolyte, liver and kidney function, urine routine were used to evaluate magnesium alloy metabolism in vivo.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

  2. Degradation of 3D printed magnesium alloy prosthesis

    X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scans were used to evaluate the degradation progression of 3D printed magnesium alloy prosthesis

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

  3. New bone regeneration

    X-ray and CT scans were used to evaluate the process of new bone regeneration

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

  4. Evaluation of shoulder joint function

    American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon's Form (ASES) was used to evaluate the shoulder joint function. The score scale of this form was 0 to 100, higher score represents better shoulder joint function.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

  5. Evaluation of wrist joint function

    Mayo Wrist Score was used to evaluate the wrist joint function.The score scale of this form was 0 to 100, higher score represents better joint function.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

  6. Evaluation of knee joint function

    Knee Society Score (KSS) was used to evaluate the knee joint function.The score scale of this form was 0 to 100, higher score represents better joint function.

    Measured: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D printed WE43 magnesium alloy in people with Degradation of Magnesium Alloy Prosthesis and New Bone Regeneration, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 2 sites in China.

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 1 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 5 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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 Yun Tian, MD (010-82267010, tiany@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detection of Magnesium alloy metabolism (time frame: 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after surgery). The study lists 6 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 5 Apr 2024.
