The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the BioPoly® Partial Resurfacing Knee Implant for the treatment of cartilage defects of the distal femur in adult patients with knee pain and symptoms who are candidates for surgical intervention of the knee compared to outcomes for the control group.

The primary effectiveness endpoint is Month 24 composite clinical success (CCS) defined by:

  • no secondary surgical intervention (SSI) and
  • an improvement from baseline in the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) total score (scaled 0 to 100) of at least 10 points.

Researchers will compare the CCS for the investigational device group to a control group receiving the standard of care, either microfracture or debridement).

Subjects randomized to the investigational group will receive the BioPoly Knee device and those randomized to the control group will receive the current standard of care, either microfracture or debridement.

Panoramica dello studio

Descrizione dettagliata

The BioPoly® Partial Resurfacing Knee Implant is a surgical intervention when conservative therapies have been ineffective for focal cartilage lesions in the femoral condyles and is an early intervention prior to partial or total joint replacement. It is indicated for focal lesions with healthy surrounding and opposing cartilage. Specifically, the BioPoly® device is intended for the replacement of symptomatic abnormal or severely abnormal (ICRS Grade 2, 3 or 4) chondral or osteochondral focal lesions located in the femoral condyles or trochlear facets in patients between 30 and 65 years of age.

The RCT compares the primary endpoint, Composite Clinical Success criteria, for the investigational device, the BioPoly device, to that of the control group, which is the standard of care for these focal lesions either microfracture or debridement.

For those patients who meet eligibility criteria, randomization is 1:1. For the control group, there is a treatment algorithm to determine if microfracture or debridement that is based upon age of the subject, Kellgren-Lawrence score, and lesion size.

  8. Patient has subchondral bone quality that is non-osteoporotic and is sufficient to support the implant. The quality of bone will be assessed by the surgeon intraoperatively with a surgical instrument such as an awl.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient has body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35.

  2. Patient has autoimmune arthritis, as diagnosed by Investigator.

  3. Patient has advanced degenerative osteoarthritis in index knee (Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 4 and/or diagnosed intraoperatively).

  6. Patient has a cartilage lesion that is being treated with a non-surgical conservative therapy (e,g, anti-inflammatory (NSAID), viscosupplementation, steroid injection, physical therapy, or activity modification) and it has been < 2 months since beginning treatment or the patient's cartilage lesion has failed surgical therapy (e.g. debridement/lavage, marrow stimulation, alignment (high tibial osteotomy)) in the index knee and it has been < 12 months since the surgical treatment.

  7. Patient has a cartilage lesion that is being treated that has failed ACI, OATS or Allograft treatment.

  8. Patient has malalignment of the index knee (>5 degrees weight bearing varus or valgus).

  9. Patient has bipolar articular cartilage involvement (or kissing lesions) of the ipsilateral compartment (i.e. greater than ICRS Grade 2 on the opposing articular surface) in the index knee.

  21. Patient has an additional cartilage lesion(s) (ICRS Grade 3 or 4) in the index knee, located on the patella, trochlea, tibia, or non-weight bearing area of index condyle that requires treatment.

  22. More than one implant is required to accommodate defect in the index knee.

  23. Patient has inadequate bone stock (e.g., cysts, osteoporosis) underlying the lesion site as determined intra-operatively by the investigator

    1. As determined by the investigator through use of an awl or a similar instrument to determine if the bone quality is insufficient to support the BioPoly device.
    2. If the cause of inadequate bone stock is due to cysts or to the boney portion of an osteochondral lesion being excessive, then the investigator may opt to fix the implant with cement rather than exclude the patient for inadequate bone stock.
  24. Patients with osteoporosis, osteopenia, Paget's disease, osteomalacia or any other metabolic bone disease; a. Osteoporosis is defined as Simple Calculated Osteoporosis Risk Estimation (SCORE) above 6 and DXA T-score < -2.5 or QCT T-score < 80mg/cubic cm. History of a fragility fracture requires that a DXA scan or QCT scan is completed

Misure di risultato primarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Improvement in the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) to Assess Composite Clinical Success (CCS) effectiveness
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

An improvement from baseline in the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) total score (scaled 0 to 100) of at least 10 points. If this criteria is met, the subject will be considered as a success relative to the measure of the Clinical Composite Success for effectiveness.

24 months
Composite Clinical Success (CCS) Safety as Measured by No Secondary Surgical Intenvention
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

No secondary surgical intervention (SSI) by 24 months will be considered as a success for the subject relative to the Composite Clinical Success (CCS) for Safety.

24 months

Misure di risultato secondarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Effectiveness over 24 months as measured by the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

KOOS individual component sub-scales (Pain, Symptoms, Activities of Daily Living, Sports/Recreation, Quality of Life) as measured by change from baseline at 6 weeks, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. The minimum and maximum raw scores for each sub-scale is as follows: Pain = 0-36, Symptoms = 0-28, Activities of Daily Living = 0-38, Sports/Recreation = 20, Quality of Life = 0-16. The sub-scales will be reported on a normalized scale relative the maximum raw score for the particular sub-scale, thus, each sub-scale score will have a range of 0-100 with 100 being better. For instance, a subject's Quality of Life raw score of 12 would be normalized as 12/16 x 100 = 75 points. The reported number will be the difference between the normalized score at a particular timepoint minus the baseline normalized score.

24 months
Effectiveness pain reduction over 24 months
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

Variable Analog Scale (VAS) Pain score as measured by change from baseline at 6 weeks, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. The VAS Pain score ranges from 0-100 where a lower number is a measure of less pain; so, lower VAS Pain scores are better.

24 months
Adverse Events Over 24 Months
Lasso di tempo: 24 months
  • Serious device-related adverse events through 24 months
  • Device-related adverse events through 24 months
  • Serious adverse events through 24 months
  • Unanticipated adverse device effects (UADE) through 24 months
24 months
Radiograph review to Assess Implant Stability Over 24 Months
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

Implant stability over time is assessed by monitoring implant migration/subsidence, implant loosening, and radiolucencies around the implant at 24 months.

24 months
Survival Over 24 Months
Lasso di tempo: 24 months

A survival analysis will be performed to determine the number of treated and control subjects that did not have a secondary surgical intervention to remove the implant or to perform another procedure to treat the same cartilage lesion.
