Cemented vs cementless partial knee replacement study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of fixing a partial knee replacement: cemented or cementless. It may help doctors learn which method works better for patients with certain types of knee bone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You need a partial knee replacement (for the inner/medial side) with a fixed bearing design.
- Your pre-surgery X-rays show your bone looks suitable for either cemented or cementless fixation.
- You can communicate in English.
- You are not a current smoker.
- You should not have very weak bone (severe osteoporosis).

This trial compares two types of knee replacements: one where the implant is glued in (cemented) and one where it locks into the bone without glue (cementless). It is for people with knee osteoarthritis who need a first-time total knee replacement.
This trial compares two ways surgeons can attach a knee replacement using robotic-assisted surgery: with cement or without cement. It may help improve how well the new knee lasts and how patients recover after a first-time knee replacement.
This trial compares two designs of partial knee replacements (fixed bearing vs mobile bearing) to see which offers better results and fewer problems for people with arthritis in the inner part of the knee. If you meet the criteria, this study might help you and your doctor choose the best option.
This study looks at how well a certain type of cemented total knee replacement works after at least one year. It may help doctors understand long-term outcomes for this specific knee implant.
This study compares two types of cementless total knee replacements to see which one helps you walk better. You may be eligible if you are under 65 and have arthritis on the inner side of your knee with a bow-leg deformity.
This study compares two implant types used for a partial knee replacement (only the inside/medial part) for people with “wear-and-tear” arthritis in that compartment. It looks to see which option leads to better outcomes after surgery and follow-up.
