  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male and non pregnant female patients between 18-75 years of age.
  • Patients requiring uncemented primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), suitable for the use of the Symax stem

  • Patients who signed the specific Informed Consent Form prior to surgery

Who cannot join

  • Patients who require revision of a previously implanted THA

About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study of In-vivo Wear Between 28 mm and 40 mm Metal Heads With Highly Cross Linked (X3) Acetabular Polyethylene Insert in the Hemispherical Trident Cup

Prospective, single centre, randomized clinical study; series of patients with a 5-years patient evaluation period.

Read the detailed description

This is a single centre randomized clinical outcomes study. The Symax stem or Accolade TMZF (Titan, Molybdenum, Zirconium, Ferrum) in combination with the Hemispherical Trident cup, X3 inserts, 28 and 40 mm Metal heads are the primary components to be implanted for evaluation.

Being tested
Trident cup, X3 inserts, 28 mm head, Trident cup, X3 inserts, 40 mm head, Symax stem, Accolade TMZF stem

What is being measured

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

  1. To Compare Wear of the Polyethylene X3 Insert Based on Digital Radiographs Using the Hip Analysis Suite (HAS).

    Determine equality of 5 year wear in the 28mm and the 40mm metal femoral head sizes using HAS, a software for the determination of polyethylene wear on digital radiographs.

    Measured: 5 years follow-up

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Harris Hip Score (HHS) Patient Questionnaire

    Scores can range from 0 to 100 with 0 being the worst and 100 being the best score. A score of 80-100 is considered good-excellent and a score of less than or equal to 79 is considered fair-poor. 90-100 = excellent 80-89 = good 70-79 = fair 0-69 = poor.

    Measured: 6 weeks, 3 months, 1, 2 and 5 years

  2. Merle D'Aubergine Score (MdA)

    The Merle D'Aubergine-Charnley Score is a simplified clinical scoring system for the hip. The overall score is determined by the sum of scores obtained from each dimension of pain, walking ability and joint mobility. The overall numeric score is given by adding the domain scores. Clinical grades: Excellent, 18, Good 15-17, Fair 13-14, Poor <13.

    Measured: 6 weeks, 3 months, 1, 2 and 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Trident cup, X3 inserts, 28 mm head, Trident cup, X3 inserts, 40 mm head and Symax stem in people with Arthroplasty, Replacement, Hip, run by Stryker Orthopaedics at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 17 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 22 Feb 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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 6 Mar 2019). 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?

To Compare Wear of the Polyethylene X3 Insert Based on Digital Radiographs Using the Hip Analysis Suite (HAS). (time frame: 5 years follow-up). 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 22 Feb 2024.
