Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Investigate the possibility to improve immediate and long term fixation of cementless tibial components of total knee arthroplasty by use of adjuvant treatment by denosumab or topical zoledronic acid through assessment of implant migration in relation to the bone by radiostereophotogrammetric analysis (RSA) and assessment of bone mineral density changes in the periprosthetic bone as measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). H1: Tibial components are more stable (RSA) in the intervention groups receiving active substances (denosumab s.c. injection or topical zoledronic acid) compared to placebo.;Secondary Objective: H2: The periprostetic bone is better conserved in proximity of tibial components when adjuvant treatment by denosumab or zoledronic acid is used as compared to placebo. H3: Adjuvant treatment by denusomab will result in a systemic response whereas treatment with topical zoledronic acid and placebo will not result in a systemic response as measured by bone formation markers.;Primary end point(s): Implant migration (RSA) measured continuously from baseline to follow-up (MTPM) and estimation of Continuous MTPM (MTPM migration > 0.2 mm between 12 and 24 months of follow-up) according to Ryd et al. (Ryd et al., 1995). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: First patient, first visit June 2013. Last Patient, last visit November 2025. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): DXA - Changes in Bone Mineral Density under the Tibial Tray and in proximity of the central stem. Biomarkers - Bone resorption from baseline to follow-ups and correlation between bone density changes, biomarkers of bone resorption and implant migration ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: First patient, first visit June 2013. Last Patient, last visit November 2025. | — |
