About this study

Official title: Prospective, Uncontrolled, Two-centre, RSA, Post-market Surveillance Study to Evaluate the Stability of the C-Stem™ AMT Femoral Component in Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty.

The purpose of this study is to monitor the stability of the C-Stem™ AMT hip within the thigh bone when used in the treatment of patients with hip joint disease requiring a total hip replacement. Patients who enter the study will be evaluated at regular intervals following hip surgery using patient, clinical, standard x-ray assessments and special x-rays which allow the stability of the implant to be determined.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing C-Stem™ AMT Femoral Component (standard and high off-set variants) in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis, run by DePuy International 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 4 inclusion and 8 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 26 Jun 2017. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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: Technical issues with RSA at main site and departure of Principal Investigator). 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?

Distal migration of the femoral stem at the 5-year time point (time frame: 5 years). 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 26 Jun 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
