About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effects of of PROCRIT� (Epoetin Alfa) on Short-Term Outcomes in Orthopedic Subjects Undergoing Primary Unilateral Knee Arthroplasty
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of perioperative administration of PROCRIT to that of autologous blood donation on post-operative rehabilitation outcomes in patients undergoing unilateral knee surgery.
Read the detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of perioperative administration of PROCRIT to that of preoperative autologous donation on post-operative rehabilitation outcomes in subjects undergoing primary unilateral knee arthroplasty.
Secondary objectives are : 1) To compare the effect of perioperative administration of PROCRIT to that of preoperative autologous donation on hemoglobin, change in hemoglobin, number of units transfused and transfusion rate during the study period; and 2) To compare the effect of perioperative administration of PROCRIT to that of preoperative autologous donation on inpatient rehabilitation length of stay.
The study will test the hypothesis that perioperative administration of PROCRIT will improve post-operative rehabilitation outcomes, compared with preoperative autologous donation. 40,000U PROCRIT or Placebo SC in relation to surgery date: Days -21, -14, -7, 0 (day of surgery), 7, and 14.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The primary endpoint is the change in composite FIM scores (from entry into the inpatient rehabilitation facility to discharge from inpatient rehabilitation) divided by the LOS, denoted as DFIM/LOS, or "rate of functional recovery".
Secondary outcomes (1)
LOS in the inpatient rehabilitation facility; Total FIM score; FIM Physical Sub-score LASA score; FACIT-An score. Safety evaluations include the incidence of adverse events throughout the study

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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study was stopped early (reason given: The study was terminated due to poor enrollment.). Results are not available in the source record.
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?
The primary endpoint is the change in composite FIM scores (from entry into the inpatient rehabilitation facility to discharge from inpatient rehabilitation) divided by the LOS, denoted as DFIM/LOS, or "rate of functional recovery".. 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 10 Jun 2011.
