Study summary

This study is a global, multi-center, prospective, non-controlled, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up study. The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Dual Mobility Acetabular System when used with the Vivacit-E or Longevity polyethylene hip bearing and instrumentation in primary total and revision (total) hip arthroplasty

Read the detailed description

The G7 Dual Mobility construct offers dislocation resistance without the need to constrain the femoral head, providing stability and high range of motion. Dual Mobility systems decrease the risk of post-operative instability in high-risk patients in both primary and revision arthroplasties.

This study will enroll up to 358 hips globally, 179 for the Vivacit-E and 179 for the Longevity polyethylene bearings. From the 179 hips per bearing variant, the study will enroll 60 primary and 119 revision arthroplasty hips. The Longevity bearing variant will only be enrolled in the US, as it is not CE marked and unregistered in the APAC market. Vivacit-E bearings will be enrolled globally.

A maximum of 20 study centers will be selected globally. To minimize potential bias and to maximize our ability to assess inter-site differences, each study site will target maximum 24 primary hip arthroplasties and maximum 47 revision hip arthroplasties. Each site is encouraged to enroll both, primary and revision, subjects.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient is 18 to 80 years of age, inclusive
  • Patient is skeletally mature

    • Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease, including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis
    • Rheumatoid arthritis
    • Dislocation risks
    • Correction of functional deformity
    • Treatment of non-union, femoral neck fracture, and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable by other techniques
    • Revision procedures where other treatment or devices have failed.
  • Patient is willing and able to complete scheduled follow-up evaluations as described in the protocol and
  • Patient, or the patient's legally authorized representative (LAR), has participated in the Informed Consent process and is willing and able to sign an IRB/EC approved Informed Consent

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient is septic, has an active infection or has osteomyelitis at the affected joint
  • Patient has significant osteoporosis as defined by treating surgeon
  • Patient has metabolic disorder(s) which may impair bone formation
  • Patient has osteomalacia
  • Patient has distant foci of infections which may spread to the implant site
  • Patient has rapid joint destruction, marked bone loss or bone resorption apparent on pre-operative radiographs
  • Patient underwent contralateral THA within 3 months of planned index procedure or has a contralateral THA planned within 3 months of the index procedure
  • Patient is undergoing simultaneous bilateral THA
  • Patient has vascular insufficiency, muscular atrophy at the implant site or neuromuscular disease which are likely to jeopardize the outcome of the surgery.
  • Patient has any concomitant disease which is likely to jeopardize the functioning or success of the implant
  • Patient is known to be pregnant
  • The patient is in a vulnerable population group such as:

    • a prisoner
    • a known alcohol or drug abuser
    • mentally incompetent or unable to understand what participation in this study entails
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Survival of the implant system

    Survival of the implant system based on removal of the study device

    Time frame: 10 years

  2. Safety of the implant system

    Safety of the system will be assessed by monitoring the frequency and incidence of adverse events. Relation of the events to implant, instrumentation and/or procedure should be specified.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Mar 2023 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jan 2037, 166 months after the start.

Of 226 interventional studies with no phase under Osteoarthritis, Hip, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 51. This study's planned 166 months is above that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 15, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
