History of Changes
  Purpose

The aim of this RCT is to show, that in a patient group receiving COLLOSS E combined with TomoFix for medical open wedge high tibial osteotomy, the onset of bone healing is earlier in time, compared to patients receiving TomoFix without COLLOSS E.


Condition Intervention Phase
High Tibia Osteotomy
 Device: COLLOSS E
Device: TomoFix Plate
 Phase 4

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Comparison of Open Wedge High Tibia Osteotomy Surgeries Using Colloss E and Tomofix and Tomofix Only, Regarding the Bone Healing

Further study details as provided by AO Clinical Investigation and Documentation:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Percentage of the osteotomy gap volume filled with bone healing tissue as determined on the MRI at 2 and 6 weeks postoperatively [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Bone union
  • Complication rate
  • Pain asset on the VAS
  • Deviation planing angle
  • Immuno reaction on equine proteins
  • Range of motion
  • Ligament stability
  • Time to pain free walking
  • WOMAC osteoarthritis index
  • SF36 Index

Enrollment: 49
Study Start Date: May 2005
Study Completion Date: February 2007
Detailed Description:

The healing effect should be demonstrated by using MRI pictures during the entire FU's in order to demonstrate the differences if COLLOSS E is applied or not.
