A Prospective Study to Evaluate the ConforMIS iTotal® (PS) Knee Replacement System

Terminated
Conditions
Osteoarthritis, Knee
Registration Number
NCT03152162
Lead Sponsor
Restor3D
Brief Summary

This is a prospective clinical study designed to observe the long-term clinical outcomes of total knee arthroplasty using a patient-specific, posterior stabilized implant in patients with osteoarthritis.

Detailed Description

The study is prospective. Subjects will be implanted with an iTotal® PS Knee Replacement System. The study will include a minimum of 100 subjects across up to 10 sites. The patients enrolled in this study may represent the first cases of the iTotal PS KRS implanted at a particular site; data collected for the first 15 patients at each site will be analyzed separately from the rest of the enrolled population. This will provide visibility towards determining if there exists a learning curve in the implantation process of the iTotal PS KRS. The study sites will be located in the United States.

  • > 18 years of age
Exclusion Criteria
  • Simultaneous bilateral procedure required
  • BMI > 40
  • Active malignancy (defined as a history of any invasive malignancy - except non- melanoma skin cancer), unless patient has been treated with curative intent and there have been no clinical signs or symptoms of the malignancy for at least 5 years
  • Poorly controlled diabetes
  • Neuromuscular conditions which prevent patient from participating in study activities
  • Active local or systemic infection
  • Immunocompromised
  • Fibromyalgia or other general body pain related condition
  • Rheumatoid arthritis or other forms of inflammatory joint disease
  • Loss of bone or musculature, osteonecrosis, neuromuscular or vascular compromise in the area of the joint to be operated on, to an extent that the procedure is unjustified
  • Diagnosed with or receiving treatment for Osteoporosis
  • Other physical disability affecting the hips, spine, or contralateral knee
  • Severe instability due to advanced loss of osteochondral structure
  • Prior arthroplasty of the affected knee, including High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO)
  • Unwilling or unable to comply with study requirements
  • Participation in another clinical study which would confound results
  • Allergy to any of the implant materials

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Baseline from 1-Year in KSS2 Years

Change in Knee Society Scores from the pre-operative visit to the 1-year post-operative visit. The Knee Society Score (KSS) includes an Objective Knee Score, Function Score, Satisfaction Score, and Expectation Score. The objective knee score, completed by the surgeon, includes a VAS score of pain walking on level ground and on stairs or inclines, as well as an assessment of alignment, ligament stability, and ROM, along with deductions for flexion contracture or extensor lag. Patients then record their satisfaction, functional activities, and expectations (Scuderi et al., 2012).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Post-operative limb alignment if long leg x-rays available2 years

Comparison of limb alignment between pre-operative and post-operative x-rays.

Change from baseline in KOOS at years 1, 2, 5 and 10 post-implantationUp to 10 years

The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) is a 42 question knee-specific instrument, developed to assess the patients' opinion about their knee and associated problems.

Blood loss during surgery1 year

Estimated blood loss during surgery (mL)

Transfusion rate1 year

Rate of patients who require blood transfusions during surgery

Change from baseline in KSS at years 2, 5 and 10 post-implantationUp to 10 years

The Knee Society Score includes an Objective Knee Score, Function Score, Satisfaction Score, and Expectation Score. The Knee Society Score (KSS) includes an Objective Knee Score, Function Score, Satisfaction Score, and Expectation Score.

Length of hospital stay in hours1 year

How long the patient is in the hospital from the time of admission to the time of discharge.
