Assessment of the Safety and Performance of a Patellofemoral Brace

September 12, 2022 updated by: Decathlon SE
Decathlon has developed kneeSOFT500 product, which is a medical device intended to be used on the knee to keep a physical activity on a regular basis in case of patellofemoral pain syndrome or patellar instability. The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon kneeSOFT500 product to demonstrate safety and performance of this device in a real-world setting.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.

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.

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
Functional score
Time Frame: 18 weeks of follow-up
Comparison of the functional result (Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale, 0-100 points) between the baseline and last follow-up visit in each group (orthosis vs control)
18 weeks of follow-up

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
Confidence level
Time Frame: At baseline and 18 weeks of follow-up
Gap in the confidence level (patient rated outcome with 6 questions, ranging from 0 to 100) related to physical activity, between the baseline and last follow-up visit in each group (orthosis vs control)
At baseline and 18 weeks of follow-up
Knee instability
Time Frame: At 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 18 weeks of follow-up
Comparison of knee instability, assessed through a numerical rating scale (NRS, ranging from 0 to 10), between the groups (orthosis vs control)
At 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 18 weeks of follow-up
Knee pain
Time Frame: At 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 18 weeks of follow-up
Comparison of knee pain, assessed through NRS (ranging from 0 to 10), between the groups (orthosis vs control)
At 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 18 weeks of follow-up
Safety (adverse events)
Time Frame: 18 weeks of follow-up
Comparison of adverse events rates between the groups (orthosis vs control)
18 weeks of follow-up

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures.
