Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects will be recruited when the decision to undergo shoulder arthroplasty is made. The surgeon will confirm that the subject is appropriate for inclusion in the study. The surgeon will confirm that the subject is appropriate for inclusion in the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient must be 18 years of age or over.
  • Patient must have signed The Informed Consent and Release of Medical Information forms.
  • The patient can be a man, postmenopausal woman, or a woman who is likely to become pregnant but is using adequate contraceptive precautions (defined as oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, surgical contraception or a combination of a condom and spermicide).
  • Patient needs a total shoulder arthroplasty (humeral head and glenoid).
  • Patient has a diagnosis of primary osteoarthritis.

Who cannot join

  • Obstacles, which pose an inordinately high surgical risk, in the judgment of the certified surgeon.
  • Class IV or higher anesthetic risk.
  • Patient has a recent history of psychiatric disease (including drug or alcohol abuse) that is likely to impair the compliance with the study protocol.
  • Patient has had a shoulder fracture.
  • Patient had previous shoulder surgeries with the exception of an arthroscopic debridement procedure.
  • The patients has a massive rotator cuff tear (rupture >3 cm or total cicatrisation) demonstrated at time of the surgery that precludes the total shoulder replacement.

About this study

Official title: 5- Year Follow-up in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty for Primary Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis: A Prospective Multicenter Study

This prospective study will evaluate the Bigliani/Flatow prosthesis. The aims of this study are to establish the safety, effectiveness, and value of the prosthetic system, and to collect information from expert shoulder surgeons as to features of the implants, instruments, and techniques which may be further improved. In this study, the investigators hypothesize that this prosthetic device will significantly improve long-term patient-based outcomes, functional status and quality of life.

Read the detailed description

Over the last two decades, total shoulder joint replacement - or arthroplasty - has become a commonly performed procedure for the treatment of painful arthritis of the shoulder, and numerous studies have demonstrated its success. During this time, much has been learned about the efficacy, as well as the complications, of the procedure, and since its introduction in the 1950's, shoulder arthroplasty has undergone an evolution in design. The value of such innovations has not yet been determined and will depend on the results of long term follow-up studies. The purpose of this study is to provide follow-up information and design modification directives.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bigliani/Flatow Shoulder SystemOther than the Bigliani/Flatow device, there will be no difference in treatment between those patients undergoing arthroplasty with the Bigliani / Flatow prosthesis and those who previously received other prosthesis. APatients who decide to participate in the study will complete various forms prior to surgery (The Informed Consent, Contact Information Form, Demographics Module, and standard outcomes forms such as American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon Score form, Constant's Score form, and the Simple Shoulder Test, EuroQOL and SF-36). The patient will also complete forms postoperatively at 3-month, 6-month, 1-year, 2-year, 3-year, 4-year and 5-year intervals (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeon Score form, Constant's Score form, Simple Shoulder Test, EuroQOL and SF-36).
Receives: Device: Bigliani/Flatow Shoulder System

What is being measured

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

  1. Preoperative Radiographic Measurements of Standard Glenohumeral Relationships

    Measured: Up to 16 weeks prior to date of surgery

  2. Change in Post-operative Radiographic Measurements of Prosthetic Relationships (Anteroposterior and Axillary x-rays)

    Measurements include acromiohumeral interval, head to tuberosity distance, coracoid to glenohumeral joint distance, coracoid to tuberosity distance, humeral stem position (valgus/varus), humeral congruity and subluxation, glenoid comp version.

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively

  3. Change in Radiographic Analysis for Lucent Lines and Prosthesis Loosening

    glenoid and humeral component lucency

    Measured: Up to 5 year postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in Score on Short-Form 36 (SF-36)

    Mental component score, physical component score, mental health, physical function, role emotional, role physical, social function, vitality, bodily pain and general health

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

  2. Change in Score on EuroQOL (EQ-5D)

    Total index, visual analog scale, mobility, anxiety/depression, pain/discomfort, self-care, and usual activities.

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

  3. Change in ASES (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons) Score

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

  4. Change in Total Score on Simple Shoulder Test (SST)

    Total score.

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

  5. Change in Constant Score

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

  6. Change in Range of Motion

    Active and passive external rotation at 90 degrees and at side, active and passive forward elevation, active and passive abduction, active and passive internal rotation

    Measured: Up to 5 years postoperatively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis of Glenohumeral Joint, run by Columbia University 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2015. 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?

Preoperative Radiographic Measurements of Standard Glenohumeral Relationships (time frame: Up to 16 weeks prior to date of surgery). The study lists 3 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 9 Jul 2015.
