Early wear of hip replacement liners
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests how well a type of hip replacement called a dual mobility cup holds up over time, focusing on early signs of wear in the plastic liner. It aims to see if this implant lasts longer and works better for people with hip arthritis or other hip conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You need a total hip replacement due to hip arthritis, bone death (osteonecrosis), or hip dysplasia.
- You are a suitable candidate for a dual mobility hip implant, which your doctor can determine.
- You are willing to provide written consent to participate.
- You do not have dementia or other cognitive impairment, and you have no serious health conditions that make surgery unsafe.

This study compares two types of hip replacement surgery: a newer option that preserves more bone (ceramic hip resurfacing) and a standard total hip replacement. Participants will wear a small activity monitor to see how their activity levels change after surgery, which may help doctors understand which procedure leads to a more active recovery.
This trial studies a specific kind of hip socket (a dual-mobility cup) used during revision hip replacement surgery. It may help improve hip stability and reduce the chance of dislocation when surgeons redo or convert a previous hip implant.
This trial compares a “dual-mobility” hip cup to a “unipolar” hip cup during primary hip replacement, focusing on dislocation (the hip coming out of place) and overall cost-effectiveness. It may help your care team choose the best implant for you and monitor outcomes after surgery.
This study compares two types of hip replacement cups (the socket part of the new hip) to see if one works better than the other. It may help older adults with hip arthritis who need hip replacement surgery.
This study compares how much two different types of dual-mobility hip sockets wear down over time in people having a hip replacement. If you are between 55 and 80 and scheduled for this surgery, you may be eligible to help doctors find out which implant lasts longer.
This study is testing a new hip replacement system (Spartan, World Cup, and World Liner) in people who need their first hip replacement due to arthritis or similar conditions. It aims to see how well the implant works and how safe it is over time.
