Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The currently used device name is the KineSpring System.
The device is a permanent implant that is fixed
on the femoral and tibial components of the
knee. The implant is achieved in a single surgery (which should take approximately two hours)
and left permanently in place.
Each subject will undergo a surgical procedure to
implant a permanent knee support device that is
an alternative to traditional knee surgeries to
treat osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 253309 0
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the KineSpring System
provides pain relief Western Ontario and MacMaster University Osteoarthritis Index
(WOMAC LK 3.1A) over 26 weeks as compared to baseline, using
patients as their own controls.
Timepoint [1] 253309 0
26 weeks following surgery
Primary outcome [2] 253310 0
Safety will be determined using the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events, and
physical examination findings.

Possible adverse events can include: 1-Irritation or inflammation to the surrounding tissues,
2 - Discomfort or sensitivity, 3 - Device failure, 4 - Infection which could lead to device removal
Timepoint [2] 253310 0
6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months following surgery
Secondary outcome [1] 262353 0
Procedural success - This outcome will be
assessed post-operatively based on successful
completion of implantation.
Timepoint [1] 262353 0
Immediately post-operatively
Secondary outcome [2] 262354 0
Determine benefits of the KineSpring System implant by assessing patient reported
symptom severity changes in WOMAC score, Oxford Knee Score, Knee pain severity
score, and patient global assessment, overall treatment outcome and patient satisfaction, and SF-36 General Health Outcomes
Timepoint [2] 262354 0
6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months following surgery
Secondary outcome [3] 262355 0
Determine benefits of the KineSpring System implant by assessing change in
investigator reported symptom severity in Knee Society Score, and physician global
assessment.
Timepoint [3] 262355 0
6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months following surgery
Secondary outcome [4] 262356 0
Evaluate changes in imaging outcomes as measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and X-ray evaluations compared to baseline
Timepoint [4] 262356 0
6 Months, 12 Months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months following surgery
