A Study to Determine the Performance of the Press Fit Condylar (P.F.C.) Sigma RP-F Knee System
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by DePuy International, September 2008
Sponsored by: DePuy International
Information provided by: DePuy International
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00761410
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the P.F.C. Sigma RPF knee accommodates functional stability with a post-operative passive range of motion of greater than 125° of flexion and to demonstrate that the range of motion does not compromise the longevity of the implant.


Condition Intervention Phase
Osteoarthritis
Device: P.F.C. Sigma RP-F Total Knee Replacement
Phase IV

MedlinePlus related topics: Knee Replacement Osteoarthritis

Official Title: A Prospective, Non-Comparative Multi Centre Study to Evaluate the Clinical Performance of the DePuy Press Fit Condylar (P.F.C.) Sigma Rotating Platform High Flexion Knee.

Further study details as provided by DePuy International:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • 90% of patients have a functionally stable knee that can achieve post-operative range of motion of 125° or greater. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • The first secondary endpoint is to investigate the survivorship of the P.F.C.® Sigma RPF knee at 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 years. [ Time Frame: 1,2, 3 and 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 280
Study Start Date: January 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: January 2025
Estimated Primary Completion Date: January 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Device: P.F.C. Sigma RP-F Total Knee Replacement
    An orthopaedic implant for total knee replacement with a mobile-bearing and a high flexion design
Detailed Description:

Primary endpoint is to demonstrate that 90% of patients have a functionally stable knee that can achieve post operative range of motion of 125 degrees or greater.

The secondary endpoint is to investigate the survivorship of the P.F.C. Sigma RP-F knee at 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 years

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female subjects, aged between 45 and 75 years inclusive.
  • Subjects who are able to give voluntary, written informed consent to participate in this investigation and from whom consent has been obtained.
  • Subjects who are able to achieve a pre-operative passive range of motion of equal to or greater than 125º.
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the Investigator, are able to understand this investigation, co-operate with the investigational procedures and are willing to return to the hospital for all the required post-operative follow-ups.
  • Subjects who present with idiopathic osteoarthritis that in the opinion of the clinical investigator requires a primary total knee arthroplasty.
  • Subjects who in the opinion of the Clinical Investigator are considered to be suitable for treatment with the P.F.C.â Sigma RPF knee, according to the indications specified in the package insert leaflet.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the Investigator, have an existing condition that would compromise their participation and follow-up in this study.
  • Women who are pregnant.
  • Subjects who are known drug or alcohol abusers or with psychological disorders that could effect follow-up care or treatment outcomes.
  • Subjects who have participated in a clinical study with an investigational product in the last month (30 days).
  • Subjects who are currently involved in any personal injury litigation claims.
  • Subjects with a known history of poor compliance to medical treatment.
  • Subjects who have a pre-operative limb deformity of equal to or greater than 10° varus or 15° valgus as defined using the anatomical axis.
  • Subjects who have morbid obesity i.e. BMI ≥40.
  • Subjects who wish to have a simultaneous bilateral procedure. However, subjects who have had a staged bilateral procedure may be included as long as the previous procedure was performed 9 or more months prior to their inclusion in the study.
