Multi-Center Comparative Trial of the ASR™-XL Acetabular Cup System vs. the Pinnacle™ Metal- on- Metal Total Hip System (ASR)

July 10, 2017 updated by: DePuy Orthopaedics

A Randomized, Prospective, Comparative, Multi-Center Clinical Evaluation of the DePuy ASR™-XL Acetabular Cup System vs. the Pinnacle™ Metal- on- Metal Total Hip System Study

The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of the ASR™-XL Acetabular Cup System compared to the Pinnacle™ Acetabular Cup with a 28mm or 36mm ULTAMET™ metal insert.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to gather sufficient clinical and radiographic data to permit valid scientific comparisons between treatment and control group outcomes. The treatment group/device for this study is the ASR™-XL Acetabular Cup System, and the control group/device is the Pinnacle™ Cup System w/ the 28mm or 36mm ULTAMET™ metal liner. The study objective will be achieved by way of treatment group selection, treatment administration, and management of participating study Subjects.
