About this study

Official title: TSolution One® Total Knee Arthroplasty Clinical Trial

The goal of this prospective, non-randomized, multicenter clinical trial is to determine whether robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty performed with TSolution One® System is safe and effective for use as an alternative to the conventional manual techniques. Clinical and radiographic outcomes for robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty performed with the TSolution One® System will be collected preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively up to a follow-up period of no less than 6 months and no more than 12 months. These outcomes will be compared to the ones reported in the literature for conventional manual techniques.

Read the detailed description

This clinical investigation will be conducted as a prospective, non-randomized, multicenter study. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the TSolution One System is safe and effective for use as an alternative to manual planning and sawing/cutting techniques. The primary effectiveness objective of this study is to demonstrate that the TSolution One® System is effective for use as an alternative to manual planning and sawing/cutting techniques by comparing the rate of malalignment for mechanical axis greater than 3° at 3 months to the rate reported in the literature (i.e. 32%) and to demonstrate significant clinical benefit by reducing the number of malaligned patients by at least 50% (i.e. from 32% to ≤ 16%). The safety objective of this study is based on the rate of intraoperative and postoperative TKA complications, with a follow-up period of no less than 6 months and no more than 12 months, and to compare this rate to the rate reported in the literature. The secondary objective of this study is to summarize the distribution of improvements in patients' self-reported assessment of postoperative function and quality-of-life from baseline to a maximum of 12 months. Additionally, other preoperative planning alignment goals (e.g. Knee V-V Alignment; Femoral Joint Line Alignment Angle; Tibial Joint Line Alignment Angle; Tibial Slope Angle) will be compared to the post-operative alignment at 3 months.

Investigators will recruit subjects from patients in their practice who require unilateral total knee arthroplasty. Patients will be screened to identify eligible candidates based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of one hundred fifteen (115) patients will be enrolled in the study across the participating sites. All patients will sign an informed consent form prior to participating in the study.

Prior to undergoing the investigational procedure, the patients will complete baseline surveys of function and quality of life (Knee Society Score survey and the SF-12 Health Survey) and have baseline radiographs and a CT scan of the knee.

Each patient will then undergo robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty with the TSolution One® System. The investigators will evaluate intra- and postoperative complications. Postoperative radiographs and a CT scan will be used to measure limb alignment using a standardized radiographic evaluation protocol. Each patient will complete a postoperative Knee Society Score survey and the SF-12 Health Survey to assess functional outcomes and quality-of-life following the investigational procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Patients With Postoperative Coronal Limb Alignment More Than ±3 Deg From the Planned Coronal Limb Alignment

    Comparison between planned and postoperative coronal limb alignment assessed as the difference between the planned hip-knee-ankle angle and the achieved hip-knee-ankle angle after surgery.

    Measured: 3 months follow-up

  2. Adverse Events

    Adverse events will be assessed as the percentage of patients with TCAT (TSolutionOne Computer Assisted Tool)-assisted implantation experiencing the composite safety endpoint of typical adverse events

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TSolution One® in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by Think Surgical Inc. at 6 sites 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 16 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 4 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 May 2020). 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?

Percentage of Patients With Postoperative Coronal Limb Alignment More Than ±3 Deg From the Planned Coronal Limb Alignment (time frame: 3 months follow-up). The study lists 2 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 4 Jun 2020.
