NCT04754087
Lead Sponsor
Zimmer Biomet
Brief Summary

The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Acetabular Shells when used with the Vivacit-E and Longevity HXLPE liners and instrumentation in primary and revision total hip arthroplasty.

Detailed Description

The primary endpoint is defined by the survival of the implant system at 10 years, which is based on removal or intended removal of the study device and will be determined using Kaplan Meier method. The safety of the system will be assessed by monitoring the frequency and incidence of adverse events. Relation of the events to either implant or instrumentation should be specified.

The secondary endpoints are the assessment of performance and clinical benefits by recording patient-reported clinical outcomes measures (PROMs) as well as radiographic outcomes (if available).

GroupInterventionDescription
G7 Shell with Vivacit-E and Longevity Highly Crosslinked Polyethylene LinersVivacit-E and Longevity (HXLPE) LinersUp to 300 hips globally will be implanted with a G7 Shell and either the Vivacit-E or Longevity Liner. The liner used by each site will be identified at start-up.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adverse Event (safety)At 10 years

Safety will be evaluated by monitoring the frequency and incidence of device related adverse events or unanticipated adverse device effects in investigational subjects.

Survival of the study device (liner); whether or not it is still implanted in the subjectAt 10 years

Survivorship will be based on revision or intended revision of the study device (liner).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain and Function using Modified Harris Hip ScoreAt 10 years

Pain and function will be measured using the Modified Harris Hip Score self assessment. The overall score runs from 0-100 with 100 representing the best outcome.

Patient Quality of Life using EQ-5D-5L Descriptive SystemAt 10 years

Perceived qualify of life will be measured using the EQ-5D-5L Descriptive System - comprises mobility, self care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression. Each question in this section has an overall score of 1-5 with 1 representing the best health.

Pain and Function using Oxford Hip ScoreAt 10 years

Pain and function will be measured using the Oxford Hip Score self assessment. The overall score runs from 0-48 with 48 representing the best outcome.

Patient Quality of Life using EQ-5D-5L EQ visual analogue scaleAt 10 years

Perceived qualify of life will be measured using the EQ visual analogue scale (EQ VAS) - records the respondent's self-rated health on a vertical, visual analogue scale. This section has an overall score of 0-100 with 100 representing the best health.
