About this study

This is a prospective, non-randomized, single cohort, multicenter study to evaluate the clinical outcomes of TKA using the JOURNEY™ II CR Total Knee System in subjects with degenerative joint disease (DJD) requiring primary total knee replacement. One hundred and seventy (170) subjects will be enrolled at up to 18 clinical sites globally. Follow-up clinical assessments will be performed at 3 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years, and 10 years post-operatively.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Subjects MUST meet ALL of the following criteria for inclusion in the study:

  • Has signed the IRB/EC approved ICF specific to this study prior to study participation
  • Is a male or female ≥ 22 and ≤ 75 years of age presenting with degenerative joint disease (DJD) of the knee
  • Is a candidate for primary total knee arthroplasty with the JOURNEY™ II CR Total Knee System due to DJD, defined by one of the following:
  • Post-traumatic arthritis
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Degenerative arthritis
  • Is able to read and understand the approved Informed Consent Form and Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) assessments (written and oral)
  • Is in general good health (as determined by the Investigator) based on screening assessments and medical history
  • Is independent, ambulatory, and can comply with all post-operative evaluations
  • plans to be available through ten (10) years post-operative follow-up

Exclusion criteria

  • Subjects will be excluded from the study, if they meet ANY one (1) of the following criteria:
  • Any of the following conditions in the index joint:
  • does not require patella resurfacing
  • has received a TKA or unicondylar arthroplasty
  • has inadequate bone stock to support the device (e.g. severe osteopenia/osteoporosis)
  • Any of the following conditions in the contralateral joint:
  • has enrolled in the study for the contralateral knee
  • has received TKA as a revision for a failed total or unicondylar knee arthroplasty
  • has received a primary TKA or unicondylar knee arthroplasty that is not fully healed and well-functioning, as determined by Investigator
  • Any of the following conditions of the hip:
  • received contralateral or ipsilateral revision hip arthroplasty
  • has ipsilateral hip arthritis resulting in flexion contracture
  • has received a ipsilateral or contralateral primary total hip arthroplasty or hip resurfacing arthroplasty, that is not fully healed and well-functioning, as determined by Investigator
  • Has diagnosis of an immunosuppressive disorder
  • Has presence of malignant tumor, metastatic, or neoplastic disease
  • Has family history of severe osteoporosis/osteopenia
  • Has a known allergy to study device or one or more of its components
  • Has conditions that may interfere with the TKA survival or outcome (e.g. Paget's or Charcot's disease, vascular insufficiency, lupus, muscular atrophy, uncontrolled diabetes, moderate to severe renal insufficiency or neuromuscular disease)
  • Is receiving medication for the diagnosis of fibromyalgia
  • has a lower extremity condition causing abnormal or restricted ambulation (e.g. ankle fusion, ankle arthroplasty, previous hip fracture)
  • Is pregnant or plans to become pregnant during the study
  • Has an emotional or neurological condition that would pre-empt their ability or willingness to participate in the study and complete PROs, as determined by Investigator
  • Has a BMI > 40
  • Is currently enrolled in or has participated in another investigational drug, biologic, or device study within 3 months of enrollment
  • Is currently involved in personal injury litigation or a worker's compensation claim
  • Is facing current or impending incarceration
  • Is known to be at risk for lost to follow-up, or failure to return for scheduled visits

Treatment and study plan

JOURNEY™ II CR Total Knee System (J II CR TKS)

Device

TKA with Journey II CR Total Knee System

Other names: JOURNEY™ II CR, (J II CR TKS)

Primary outcomes

  1. Equivalence in 1 year post-operative mean Range of Motion (ROM) in subjects receiving the J II CR TKS as compared to the literature reference mean ROM

    Time frame: 1 year post-op analysis

  2. Non-inferiority of the survival rate of the J II CR TKS with the reference survival rate of a literature reference at 5 and 10-years post-operatively

    Time frame: Up to 10 year post-operative analysis

Secondary outcomes

  1. Clinical Outcomes: EuroQol 5D (EQ-5D) scale

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs

  2. Clinical Outcomes: 2011 Knee Society Score (2011 KSS) clinical evaluation

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs

  3. Clinical Outcomes: Self-Administered Patient Satisfaction Scale for Primary Hip and Knee Arthroplasty (SAPSS

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs

  4. Health Economic Endpoints : Physical therapy visit quantification/duration

    Time frame: 30, 60, and 90-day hospital re-admission rate

  5. Health Economic Endpoints: Discharge destination(s)/length of stay

    Time frame: 30, 60, and 90 days

  6. Health Economic Endpoints: Unscheduled professional visits (e.g. hospital, emergency room, orthopedic clinic, primary care physician)

    Time frame: 30, 60, and 90 days

  7. Health Economic Endpoints: Concomitant medications/procedures associated with the knee

    Time frame: 30, 60, and 90 days

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs

  9. Safety Endpoints: Manipulations under anesthesia

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs

  10. Safety Endpoints: Radiographic analysis

    Time frame: Pre-Op to 10 yrs
