Comparing two robotic knee replacement systems
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares two types of robot-assisted total knee replacement systems (MAKO and VELYS) to see which one works better. If you need a knee replacement and are in good health, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a total knee replacement for arthritis or joint disease.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- Your BMI is 40 or less.
- You do not have osteoporosis or other bone problems.
- You are not pregnant or nursing.
- You have no active infection in your knee and no major nerve or muscle issues.

This study compares two different ways surgeons can align and position a robotic knee replacement to see which gives better results. You'll be randomly assigned to one approach and tracked over time to measure pain, function, and satisfaction.
This study compares two modern ways of doing knee replacement: robot-assisted surgery versus a custom-made implant tailored to your knee shape. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and function for people with osteoarthritis.
This trial tests two types of knee implants during robot-assisted surgery. It aims to see which one works better for people needing a first-time total knee replacement due to arthritis or similar conditions.
This study compares two advanced technologies for total knee replacement: a robot that uses a CT scan for guidance versus an augmented reality system that uses no scan. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes for patients with osteoarthritis.
This trial studies whether robotic-assisted surgery can improve or standardize outcomes for people getting a total knee replacement for severe arthritis. It may help by using a robot to assist during the knee operation, but you must meet specific knee and health criteria.
This study compares two ways to perform knee replacement surgery for osteoarthritis: traditional manual surgery versus robotic-assisted surgery. Both are standard approaches; the trial tests whether robotic guidance improves how well your knee works after surgery.
