RECRUITING

Evaluation of the Patellar LIFT System for Subjects with Patellofemoral Cartilage Degeneration

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The PELICAN study is a prospective, non randomized, dual arm, multi-center clinical study comparing clinical outcomes of subjects treated with the LIFT Implant System to subjects treated with Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy (TTO).

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.

Ages Eligible for Study:22 Years to 65 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. Patients age 22 to 65 years at time of screening
  2. 2. Anterior knee pain due to patellofemoral cartilage degeneration (PCD) with an Modified Outerbridge score of ≥3 as assessed by an MRI on the study knee
  3. 3. Body Mass Index (BMI) of ≤ 35
  4. 4. Weight \< 300 lbs
  5. 5. Anterior Knee Pain Score (AKPS) of ≤ 70 (0-100 scale)
  6. 6. Visual Analog Score (VAS) of ≥ 40 (0-100 scale)
  7. 7. Failure of at least 6 months of non-surgical treatment defined as at least one of the treatments (e.g. rest, bracing, physical therapy, targeted exercise, use of NSAIDs, activity level reduction or Confidential ZKR Orthopedics, CIP 0001 Page 11 of 55 Protocol Version: 1.0, 04JAN2024 modification, etc.) per AAOS Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee; Evidence based guideline 3rd Edition 2021
  1. 1. PCD with an Modified Outerbridge Score of 2 or less at the study knee
  2. 2. Clinical symptoms of the contralateral knee that preclude activities of daily living, stair climbing, stair descending, or require the use of an assist device
  3. 3. History of patella dislocation or instability
  4. 4. Patella alta or patella baja
  5. 5. Known TT-TG distance \>20mm
  6. 6. Patients requiring simultaneous cartilage grafting procedure, cartilage transplantation, or bone marrow stimulation
  7. 7. Previous repair of a torn patellar tendon
  8. 8. Prior TTO procedure or knee joint replacement (total or partial) of the study knee
  9. 9. Joint modifying surgery (e.g., ligament reconstruction, meniscus repair, cartilage transplantation, microfracture, etc.) in the study knee within 6 months prior to planned index procedure date
  10. 10. Arthroscopic surgeries in the study knee for joint lavage, meniscectomy, chondral debridement, and loose body removal within 3 months prior to planned index procedure
  11. 11. Active infection, sepsis, osteomyelitis or history of septic arthritis in any joint
  12. 12. Rheumatoid arthritis, other forms of inflammatory joint disease or autoimmune disorder
  13. 13. History of avascular necrosis of any bone
  14. 14. History of symptomatic patellar tendonitis of intrasubstance tear
  15. 15. Insufficiency of the cruciate, collateral ligaments, or tendon which would preclude stability of the LIFT System
  16. 16. Pathologic ligamentous injury (Lachman \> 1) or meniscus tearing
  17. 17. Clinical symptoms of the femoral-tibial joint of the study knee that preclude activities of daily living, stair climbing, stair descending, or requires the use of an assist device
  18. 18. Evidence (MRI, arthroscopy, etc.) of Modified Outerbridge Grade 4 degenerative arthritis in the femoral-tibial joint of the study knee that potentially explains patient symptoms
