Arm && Interventions
GroupInterventionDescription
Control Total Hip Replacement DeviceODH Hip SystemTotal Hip replacement surgery using control device consisting of a hard-on-soft bearing or a ceramic-on-ceramic bearing which includes: * R3 acetabular cup, and an uncemented SYNERGY or ANTHOLOGY femoral stem * OXINIUM heads on polyethylene liners or * Ceramic heads on ceramic liners (all uncemented components)
Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement DeviceODH Hip SystemTotal Hip replacement surgery using an experimental device consisting of a hard-on-hard bearing which includes: * R3 acetabular cup, and an uncemented SYNERGY or ANTHOLOGY femoral stem * R3 ODH acetabular cup liners (sizes 38/50, 40/52, 42/54 and 44/56 mm) * R3 ODH femoral heads (sizes 38, 40, 42 and 44 mm) * Taper sleeves Ti -6AL-4V (sizes -4, +0, +4, and +8)
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Device-Related RevisionsPostoperatively through 10 years

Device related revisions reported by the number of participants with a revision required (Yes/No).

Metal Ion Concentration in Whole Blood3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years and 10 years post-operatively.

For both investigational (i.e., Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device) and control (i.e., Control Total Hip Replacement Device) participants, metal ion concentration in whole blood were measured for Cobalt (Co), Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Titanium (Ti), Zirconium (Zr), Niobium (Nb), Molybdenum (Mo), Vanadium (V) and Aluminum (Al) at each indicated time frame.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Harris Hip Score (HHS) - Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device OnlyPreoperatively, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years and 10 years post-operatively.

The Harris Hip Score (HHS), which ranges from 0 (worst) to 100 (best), considers information on pain, function, and range of motion. HHS was measured for Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device only.

Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (HOOS)Preoperatively, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years, 10 years

The Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Scores (HOOS) was measured for Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device only and included 40 items with five responses from five subcategories of Pain, Symptoms and Stiffness, Activities of Daily Living, Function in Sports and Recreational Activities, and Quality of Life to produce a total HOOS. The total HOOS scale ranged from 0 to 100, with 0 indicating the worst possible score and 100 indicating the best possible score.

Radiographic Measures: Radiolucencies3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years and 10 years post-operative

Radiolucencies determined by number of participants with occurrence of radiolucent lines and osteolysis (Yes/No)

Radiographic Measures: Heterotopic Ossification3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years and 10 years post-operative

Occurrence of Heterotopic Ossification in participants (Yes/No)

Radiographic Measures: Subsidence3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7 years and 10 years post-operative

Occurrence of Subsidence in Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device participants (Yes/No) categorized by:

* Acetabular Cup Subsidence

* Stem Subsidence

* Evidence of cortical thickening

* Acetabular component fail

* Femoral component fail

* Other

Health Economic Outcomes: Surgical Blood LossIntra-operative, up to 50 minutes

Blood loss during surgery measured in milliliters (ml) of blood

Health Economic Outcomes: Length of Hospital StayHospital admission to discharge

Length of stay measured by number of days spent in hospital

Health Economic Outcomes: Operative TimeIntra-operative

Operative time in minutes from first incision into skin to time when last suture is applied for the Investigational Hard-on-Hard Total Hip Replacement Device group only

Health Economic Outcomes: Re-HospitalizationsUp to 10 years

Re-hospitalizations measured by the number of re-admissions to hospital
