A Post-Market Clinical Evaluation of the ReUnion TSA System

January 6, 2025 updated by: Stryker Trauma and Extremities
This investigation is a prospective, multicenter clinical investigation. It is anticipated that a total of one hundred (100) subjects will be enrolled at approximately 4-7 sites. The clinical investigation has been designed to follow the surgeon's standard of care for joint arthroplasty subjects, which entails clinical evaluation on a regular ongoing basis, or as needed should the subject become symptomatic in the treated joint.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The objective of this clinical investigation is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy/performance of the ReUnion TSA System. Efficacy/performance of the procedure will be measured the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score. Safety of the ReUnion TSA System will be demonstrated through reporting of device-related intra-operative and post-operative Adverse Events (AEs). Enrolled subjects will be assessed at Pre-Operative, Operative/Discharge, and at 6 Weeks, 6 Months, 12 Months, 24 Months and annually thereafter up to 10 years following the index procedure.

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 99 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

100 subjects are to be enrolled in this clinical investigation. The clinical investigation has been designed to follow the surgeon's standard of care for joint arthroplasty subjects, which entails clinical evaluation on a regular ongoing basis, or as needed should the subject become symptomatic in the treated joint.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is willing to sign the informed consent.
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with postoperative scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations.
  • Subject is male or non-pregnant female and 18 years or older at the time of surgery.

  • Subject has one or more of the following:

    • Aseptic necrosis of the humeral head
    • Painful, disabling joint disease of the shoulder resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
    • Failed previous total shoulder replacement, resurfacing or other procedure

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject has an active or suspected latent infection in or about the shoulder joint.
  • Subject has mental or neuromuscular disorder which would create an unacceptable risk of prosthesis instability, prosthesis fixation failure or complications in postoperative care.
  • Subject has bone stock compromised by disease, infection or prior implantation which cannot provide adequate support and/or fixation to the prosthesis.
  • Subject has anticipated activities which would impose high stresses on the prosthesis and its fixation.
  • Subject is obese such that he/she produces a load on the prosthesis which can lead to failure of fixation of the device or to failure of the device itself.
  • Subject has absent, irreparable or non-functioning rotator cuff and other essential muscles.
  • Subject has concomitant disease(s) which may significantly affect the clinical outcome.
  • Subject has traumatic or pathologic fracture of the proximal humerus.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
ReUnion TSA System

Subject with one or more of the following diagnoses will be treated with the ReUnion TSA System:

  • Aseptic necrosis of the humeral head
  • Painful, disabling joint disease of the shoulder resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
  • Failed previous total shoulder replacement, resurfacing or other procedure
Device: ReUnion TSA System
The ReUnion TSA System is designed as an anatomical total shoulder or hemi-shoulder endoprosthesis to address advanced arthritic disorders affecting the shoulder joint in subjects having intact or repairable rotator cuff function. The ReUnion TSA System consists of a completely modular shoulder platform including a Humeral Stem, Humeral Head and Glenoid. The intended purposes of the ReUnion TSA System are to achieve pain relief, improvement of range of motion and restoration or improvement of the shoulder function while ensuring long-term replacement of the shoulder joint with sufficient stability of all endoprosthesis components.

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
Time Frame
American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score
Time Frame: 24 months
The primary endpoint of the clinical investigation is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the device to the selected literature controls, as measured by the ASES Shoulder Score at 24 Months post-operative. Scores range from 0 to 100 with a score of 0 indicating a worse shoulder condition and 100 indicating a better shoulder condition.
24 months

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
Safety Will be Measured by Capturing the Incidence Rate of Device-related Intra-operative and Post-operative Adverse Events Will be Measured.
Time Frame: 24 mths
Secondary outcome measures to assess safety by capturing the incidence rate of device-related intra-operative adverse events.
24 mths
Efficacy Will be Measured by Monitoring All Implant Survivorship in All Subjects Who Have the Total or Partial Prosthesis With Full or Partial Implant Survival.
Time Frame: From Baseline to last recorded follow-up (~27 Months)
Secondary outcome measures to assess efficacy by monitoring all implant survivorship in all subjects enrolled who have the ReUnion RFX System.
From Baseline to last recorded follow-up (~27 Months)
