Trident II Tritanium Acetabular Shell Outcomes Study

March 26, 2026 updated by: Stryker Orthopaedics

A Prospective, Post-market, Multi-center Study of the Trident II Tritanium Acetabular Shell

The purpose of this study is to review the performance and success rate of an FDA approved cementless hip replacement part called the Trident II Tritanium Acetabular Shell. The study will specifically look at the need to revise the hip replacement after 5 years. This will be compared to how much this happens in patients who have hip replacement with similar cementless acetabular shells.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, open-label, post-market, non-randomized evaluation of the Trident II Tritanium Acetabular Shell for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a cementless application in a consecutive series of patients who meet the eligibility criteria.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

A. Patient has signed an Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved, study specific Informed Patient Consent Form.

B. Patient is a male or non-pregnant female age 18-80 years of age at the time of study device implantation.

C. Patient has primary diagnosis of Non-Inflammatory Degenerative Joint Disease.

D. Patient is a candidate for a primary cementless total hip replacement.

E. Patient is willing and able to comply with postoperative scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations.

Exclusion Criteria:

F. Patient has a Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 40.

G. Patient is diagnosed with Inflammatory Arthritis.

H. Patient has an active or suspected latent infection in or about the affected hip joint at time of study device implantation.

I. Patient has a neuromuscular or neurosensory deficiency, which limits the ability to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the device.

J. Patient is diagnosed with a systemic disease (e.g. Lupus Erythematosus) or a metabolic disorder (e.g. Paget's Disease) leading to progressive bone deterioration.

K. Patient is immunologically suppressed or receiving steroids in excess of normal physiological requirements (e.g. > 30 days).

L. Patient requires revision surgery of a previously implanted total hip replacement or hip fusion to the affected joint.

M. Patient has had previous open surgery to the affected joint, not including arthroscopy.

N. Patient requires implantation of a constrained liner.

O. Patient has a known sensitivity to device materials.

P. Patient is a prisoner.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
All-cause Revision and Removal Rates for the Trident II Tritanium Acetabular Shell
