About this study

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the Arcos Revision Stem system, determine the stability of the implants, and evaluate any relationship between Paprosky bone defect level and the success of the Arcos Stem.

Read the detailed description

Primary Endpoint: survivorship and revision rate up to 5 years post-operatively Secondary Endpoints: Stability and Fixation of Arcos Hip by radiographic assessment, Relationship between bone defect level and survivorship, Oxford Hip Score and Harris Hip Score post-operative, Adverse events, complications.

Case Report Forms: Demographic Data, Paprosky Acetabular/Femoral Defects, Operative Data, Oxford Hip Score, Harris Hip Score, Collection of X-rays, Radiographic Evaluation form, Adverse Events, Revisions, Lost to Follow-up, and Protocol Deviations

200 patients: 100 with BoneMaster HA, 100 without BoneMaster HA. Up to 10 sites globally will be used to fulfill enrollment in this study.

All cases enrolled will be those implanted with either the Cone, Broached, or Calcar Proximal Body and one of the five distal options (Slotted, Bullet-tip, Interlocking, STS, or ETO).

To be included in the study, a patient must have received a revision total hip arthroplasty with the Arcos system. The Arcos system is to be used in accordance to the indications for use and contraindications detailed in the approved labeling of the device.

Study time perspective:

Collection of retrospective data in supplement to the data collected in the course of the prospective study to compensate total enrolment goal. This is applicable for 3 sites: Finland, United Kingdom (NHS Sheffield), Spain.

All patients enrolled in the study will be followed up as to the same time points for the duration of the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Survivorship

    The primary endpoint for this study was implant survival at 5 years post surgery and is presented by the number of cases with the implants unrevised

    Measured: 5 year post surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Radiographic Evaluation

    This outcome measure was to evaluate the stability and fixation of the Arcos hip stem. This was done through radiographic measurements of stability and fixation, outcome, incidence of radiolucencies around the stem. Acetabular radiolucency was also assessed.

    Measured: 6 weeks, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years Post Surgery

  2. EQ5D

    The EuroQol 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) is a standardized Instrument widely used to measure health status. It is a self reported assessment about the patient's quality of life composed of two parts: a questionnaire and a visual analogue scale (VAS). The questionnaire includes 5 questions referring to mobility, selfcare, daily activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each question can be answered in five ways, indicating no, slight, moderate, severe problems or inability to complete the task. The EQ-5D-5L score ranges from -0.59 to 1, where 1 is the best possible health state. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a vertical scale ranges from 100 ('The best health you can imagine') to 0 ('The worst health you can imagine') where the patient reports his/her self-rated health.

    Measured: Preop, 6 Weeks, 1 Year, 3 Years and 5 Years post surgery

  3. Oxford Hip Score

    The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) is a patient-reported outcome measure that was developed to specifically assess the patient's perspective of outcome following THA. The OHS consists of twelve questions covering function and pain associated with the hip. To calculate the total score, each response is scored from 0 (worst outcome) to 4 (best outcome) and the sum of all 12 items is reported with a maximum of 48, representing the best score possible. The Score ranges from 0 - 100 and the outcome score can be categorized as Excellent: > 41; Good: 34 - 41; Fair: 27 - 33; Poor: < 27.

    Measured: Preop, 6 weeks, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years post surgery

  4. Harris Hip Score

    The Harris hip Score (HHS) is an outcome measure that includes a series of questions answered by the patient and physical examinations recorded by a qualified health care Professional. The HHS covers four domains: pain (one item, 0-44 points), function and functional activities (seven items, 0-47 points), absence of deformity (one item, 0-4 points) and range of motion (one item, 0-5 points). The total score can vary from a range of 0 - 100. The outcome score can be categorized as Excellent: 90-100; Good: 80-90; Fair: 70-80; Poor: < 70.

    Measured: Preop, 6 Weeks, 1 Year, 3 Years and 5 Years post surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoarthritis and Avascular Necrosis, run by Zimmer Biomet at 5 sites in 4 countries.

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 10 inclusion and 9 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 20 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United Kingdom, Finland, Spain, Sweden. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Jan 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Survivorship (time frame: 5 year post surgery). 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 20 Jan 2025.
