Comparing two types of partial knee replacements
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 80 years old
- You have been told you need a partial knee replacement on the inner side of your knee
- Your anterior cruciate ligament (a key ligament inside the knee) is still intact
- Imaging shows your bone quality is good enough for surgery
- Your health status (ASA score) is 3 or less, meaning you have no severe systemic disease
- You do not have inflammatory joint disease (like rheumatoid arthritis), knee ligament instability, or a high risk of complications (BMI over 35, previous knee fracture or surgery, neuromuscular disease, or cancer in the knee)

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.
This study looks at outcomes after surgery using the Multigen Plus H knee replacement system, sometimes with special add-on parts called AMF TT cones. It may help improve how well these knee implants work and how patients recover after total knee replacement.
This trial is for people with severe arthritis in both knees who need knee replacement surgery. It compares different types of artificial knee joints to see which one works better.
This study compares two types of knee replacement surgery for severe arthritis on the inner side of the knee. One option replaces only the worn inner part (partial), the other replaces the whole joint (total). The goal is to see which approach gives better results.
This study tests how well a new partial knee implant works and how safe it is for people with arthritis on the inner side of the knee who still have healthy knee ligaments and can bend their knee well.
This study compares two different types of plastic knee implants (polyethylene) used in total knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see which one works best for patients with knee arthritis.
