Brief Summary

The ANTHEM™PS Total Knee System is being conducted to demonstrate non-inferiority of 10 year implant survivorship in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis compared to reported literature

Detailed Description

The ANTHEM PS Study is a prospective, multicentre, cohort study to collect relevant patient reported, clinical, surgical and radiological data from 143 subjects implanted with the ANTHEM™PS Knee System for degenerative joint disease in up to 6 clinical sites globally. Total study duration for study participants will be 10 years with post-operative follow-up visits planned for 6 weeks, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, 7.5 years and 10 years. The study will evaluate the 10 year implant survivorship and the safety and outcome of the ANTHEM™PS Knee System over 10 years. This is a post-market study of the ANTHEM™PS Total Knee System.

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate non-inferiority (8% margin) of 10 year implant survivorship of the ANTHEM™PS Total Knee System in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis compared to reported literature.

The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate shorter and long term safety and outcomes of the ANTHEM™ PS Total Knee System.

Inclusion Criteria
  1. Subject is a candidate for primary total knee arthroplasty due to degenerative joint disease
  2. Subject is willing to sign and date an EC-approved consent form
  3. Subject is male or female between the ages of 18 and 75 years of age
  4. Subject plans to be available through ten (10) years post-operative follow-up
  5. Subject agrees to follow the study protocol
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Subject would receive the ANTHEM™ Total Knee System on the affected knee as a revision for a previously failed total or unicondylar knee arthroplasty

  2. Subject received TKA on the contralateral knee as a revision for a previously failed total or unicondylar knee arthroplasty

  3. Subject has a history of patellar fracture, patellectomy, patello-femoral instability

  4. Subject has inflammatory arthritis

  5. Subject possesses a contralateral or ipsilateral revision hip arthroplasty

  6. Subject has ipsilateral hip arthritis resulting in flexion contracture

  7. Subject has one or more of the following arthroplasties that are not fully healed and well-functioning, as determined by the Investigator:

    • Ipsilateral or contralateral primary total hip arthroplasty or hip resurfacing arthroplasty
    • Contralateral primary total knee or unicondylar knee arthroplasty
  8. Subject has an active infection or sepsis (treated or untreated)

  9. Subject has presence of malignant tumor, either primary or metastatic, or benign tumor on leg with the knee to be treated

  10. Subject has conditions that may interfere with the TKA survival or outcome (e.g. Paget's or Charcot's disease, vascular insufficiency, muscular atrophy, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus i.e. not under treatment with oral/injectable medications to control blood glucose levels, fibromyalgia, moderate to severe renal insufficiency or neuromuscular disease)

  11. Subject has a chronic, contralateral lower extremity condition causing abnormal ambulation, which is not related to the knee (e.g. ankle fusion, ankle arthroplasty, previous hip fracture).

  12. Subject is pregnant or plans to become pregnant during the study

  13. Subject has an emotional or neurological condition that would pre-empt their ability or willingness to participate in the study, including mental illness, mental retardation, drug or alcohol abuse

  14. Subject has a BMI>40

  15. Subject is enrolled in another investigational drug, biologic, or device study

  16. Subject is facing current or impending incarceration

  17. Subject has an inadequate bone stock to support the device which would make the procedure unjustifiable, including but not limited to: severe osteopenia/osteoporosis or family history of severe osteoporosis/osteopenia

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Ten year Anthem knee implant survivorshipStudy participants will be followed for 10 years

The ANTHEM™ Total Knee System will demonstrate non-inferiority of 10 year implant survivorship in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty for osteoarthritis compared to reported literature

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
EQ-5D-3LParticipant questionnaire completed at the Baseline timepoint, 6 weeks, 1,2, 5, 7.5 and 10 years

Participant Questionnaire_ The EQ-5D-3L questionnaire is a self-rating evaluation questionnaire made up of health status measurements of mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The participants also evaluate their overall health status using a visual analogue scale.

2011 Knee Society Score (2011 KSS)Participant questionnaire completed at the Baseline timepoint, 6 weeks, 1,2, 5 and 10 years

Participant questionnaire including a pre-operative section supplying information relating to the current symptoms, knee function, satisfaction with their pre-operative functional activities, and the expectations they have of the results of the total knee arthroplasty. The surgeon then completes information on objective measures such as joint alignment, instability, motions and symptoms.

Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (KOOS)Participant questionnaire completed at the Baseline timepoint, 6 weeks, 1,2, 5 and 10 years

Participant Questionnaire to assess the patients opinion about their knee and associated problems.

Femoral Fit ('Perfect Fit' rate)Femoral Fit will be measured at surgery, assessed for an estimated 1 hour

For each individual knee, 'overall femoral component fit' across the combined three femur levels; condylar, junctional and trochlear will be characterised under three classifications:

1. Perfect Fit: just fit at all three levels or just fit at two levels and underhang at one

2. Overhang: overhang observed on at least one of the three levels

3. Underhang: underhang at all three levels or underhang at two and just fit at one

Revision for any reasonAnytime during the 10 year study period

Anthem implant revision done for any reason

Radiographic Assessments to adequately assess the component position, prosthesis-bone interface, and the knee alignment.Radiographic assessments to be conducted at Pre-operation timepoint (Baseline), post-operative (Day 1), 6 weeks, 1,2, 5, and 10 years

The Knee X Rays taken during the course of the study will include Full leg weight-bearing, bilateral anteroposterior (AP), lateral and patellar radiographs. The knee assessments to be made from radiographs will include: Radiographic findings; Component orientation; Radiolucencies; Migration; Osteolysis and Stress shielding.

Adverse EventsAdverse events are collected at any time during the study with formal timepoints being at surgery, 6 weeks, 1,2, 5, 7.5 and 10 years

All adverse events captured during the entire study period to provide patient safety oversight
