About this study

Official title: Aspects of Alignment, Function, and Migration Behaviour in Two Conceptually Different Articular Surface Designs in the Cruciate Retaining Version of the Cemented Persona Knee System - A Randomized Study Evaluated by RSA and CT Analysis

The aim of this study is to evaluate, over a 2 year period, the migration pattern, function and the possibility of anatomical reconstruction of a relatively new total knee arthroplasty (TKA) concept, the Persona. Sixty patients will be randomized into 2 groups of 30 patients each, with one group receiving the Persona TKA with a conventional Cruciate Retaining (CR) polyethylene articular surface and the other group with a newly developed Medial Congruent (MC) articular surface. Patients will be followed up with Radiostereometry (RSA), conventional radiography, outcome questionnaires, clinical evaluation and Computer Tomography (CT). The migration pattern of the components will be evaluated as well as the degree of anatomical reconstruction and clinical result.

We plan also to do a 5 year follow-up of the patients with RSA and PROMS.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Medial Congruent Polyethylene (MC)Device

    Also called MC

    One group receives the conventional CR surface and the other the new MC articular surface

Study groups in NCT03494348
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cruciate Retaining Polyethylene (CR)No interventionThis is the standard Polyethylene articular surface
Medial Congruent Polyethylene (MC)Active comparatorThe intervention here will be the MC articular surface. This is the new Polyethylene articular surface with a more congruent medial side and a more flat lateral side which should better resemble natural anatomy.
Receives: Device: Medial Congruent Polyethylene (MC)

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiostereometry (RSA)

    Measure the change in component migration over time (translation and rotation around the x-, y- and z-axis)

    Measured: First postoperative day, 3 months, 1 year, 2 years and 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Computer Tomography (CT)

    Measure the preoperative malalignment of the knee and the postoperatively achieved alignment and achieved prosthesis position

    Measured: Preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively

  2. Conventional radiography

    Measure the preoperative malalignment of the knee and the postoperatively achieved alignment and achieved prosthesis position

    Measured: Preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively

  3. General health questionnaire

    EuroQol (EQ-5D) -standardized instrument for use of general health outcome

    Measured: Preoperatively, 1, 2 and 5 years postoperatively

  4. Knee specific health questionnaire

    Knee disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) - this is a knee specific questionnaire measuring patients knee function and pain situation

    Measured: Preoperatively, 1, 2 and 5 years postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Medial Congruent Polyethylene (MC) in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by Region Skane at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2022. 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 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?

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?

Radiostereometry (RSA) (time frame: First postoperative day, 3 months, 1 year, 2 years and 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 29 Nov 2022.
