Study Summary

This trial is testing the long-term safety and benefits of a new hip replacement system.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with full skeletal maturity who need hip replacement due to conditions like osteoarthritis or fractures. Candidates must be able to follow the study protocol and attend follow-up visits. Pregnant individuals, those with bone formation disorders, severe osteoporosis, infections that could affect the implant site, substance abuse issues, or unmanageable neuromuscular diseases cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to confirm safety and effectiveness of G7 Acetabular Shells used with Vivacit-E and Longevity HXLPE liners in primary and revision total hip replacements. It's designed to track long-term outcomes in patients receiving these specific hip implant components.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed here, typical side effects from similar hip replacement devices may include pain at the surgery site, inflammation around the implant, risk of dislocation or loosening of the implant over time, infection risks associated with surgery and possible reaction to anesthesia.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: G7 Shell with Vivacit-E and Longevity Highly Crosslinked Polyethylene LinersExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Up 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What results are researchers hoping to achieve from this trial?

"The primary metric monitored over 10 years for safety is Adverse Events. Secondary outcomes encompass patient Quality of Life measured via the EQ-5D-5L EQ visual analogue scale (0 to 100, with higher scores being better) and pain/function assessed through Modified Harris Hip Score (0 to 100, high scores denote better results) as well as Oxford Hip Score (0 - 48; highest score represents best outcome)."

Answered by AI

Is enrollment for this clinical trial currently accessible?
