Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The TRAX CR TKR is not currently approved for clinical use in Australia and this study is being undertaken via the Clinical Trial Notification Scheme with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).
The TRAX CR TKS was developed by Amplitude (Valence, France) with the support of a design group of five Australian surgeons, in order for the manufacturer to have a full range of options for the patients. It is a modular cemented Cruciate-Retaining (CR) fixed-bearing implant intended for the total replacement of the knee joint in order to reduce pain and restore knee function in comparison with preoperative status. No major differences exist between the TRAX CR system and the modern cemented total knee systems used in primary TKA in Australia.
Surgeons implementing the TRAX CR system will require specific training in order to implement the system. This training will be provided by Amplitude (the manufacturer) before the study starts.
The TRAX CR system would only be available to participants who are eligible and choose to enrol in this study.
Patients will undergo primary total knee arthroplasty and will be followed up to 2-years post operative. Notably, 1 appointment will be required before surgery, and 2 after surgery (at 6 months and 2 years postoperatively). Each appointment will last between 30 and 45 minutes, will be conducted by the orthopedic surgeon at the private or public hospital where the investigators are appointed.
Please see below a description of each evaluation:
--Preoperative visit:
During the preoperative visit, patients who are possible candidates for this study are screened to determine if they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. If the patient is a candidate, the investigator proposes participation in the study to the patient, according to GCP guidelines.
Patients must sign an HREC-approved Patient Informed Consent Form prior to participating in any study-related activities. Consent must be obtained prior to surgery.
Once the patient has consented, preoperative data will be collected including:
demographics and medical history, Hip-Knee-Ankle (HKA) angle, Range of Motion (ROM),, Oxford Knee Society (OKS) score , EQ-5D-5L and radiographs.
--Surgery: Surgical details will be collected from the operative notes and at the time of surgery.
The surgery duration is expected to be consistent with total knee replacement procedures, usually taking 1 to 2 hours.
--6-month visit: During the 6-month visit (+2 months/-1 month), the following evaluations will be collected: HKA, ROM, OKS, Forgotten Joint Score (FJS), EQ-5D-5L ,radiographs (only if standard of care) and any occurred adverse event since surgery.
--2-year visit : During the 2-year visit (± 3 months), the following evaluations will be collected: HKA, ROM, OKS, FJS, EQ-5D-5L ,radiographs and any occurred adverse event since last visit.

Possible adverse events following knee arthroplasty could be linked to the surgery and/or implanted devices. The most recurrent potential residual risks / side effects and potential complications usually encountered during total knee replacement linked to the surgery or known in the state of the art include:
- Impact of the surgery on the patient’s general condition
- Wounding of important arteries in the lower limb (e.g. popliteal artery) or a nerve (the sciatic nerve in particular)
- Disruption or rupture of the extensor system (e.g. patellar or quadricipital tendons)
- Rupture of an extensor muscle, following a patellar fracture or ruptured tendon for instance
- Infection
- Prolonged stiffness
- Knee instability
- Pain
- Patella clunk syndrome
- Allergy to the implant materials
- Osteolysis
- Adverse reactions of human tissues to wear debris and particles
- Periprosthetic bone fracture
- Dislocation of the component or the entire prosthesis
- Loosening of the component or the entire prosthesis
- Wearing of the bearing surfaces
- Breakage of the component or the entire prosthesis
- Migration of a component or the entire prosthesis
- Impingement between the implant and the surrounding tissues
Other events linked to the surgery or known in the state of the art can also occur:
- Cardio-vascular, thromboembolic disorders: superficial or deep vein thrombosis and fat or pulmonary embolism
- Hematoma
- Algoneurodystrophy
- Heterotopic ossification
- Pejorative bone remodeling
The adverse events will be collected at minima perioperatively, at the 6-month appointment, and at the 2-year appointment. Any adverse event that occurred in between and reported from the patient to the surgeon will be also collected.
Information regarding the occurred adverse event will be reported by the surgeon or by the Australian registry delegates through the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR) Real-time Automated Platform for Integrated Data capture (RAPID) Platform by following by filling in a study-specific adverse event form.

Summary
Brief summary
This study aims to evaluate the clinical safety and performance of the TRAX Cruciate Retaining (CR) Total Knee System (TKS) used in primary Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) The study is prospective, multi-centre, non-randomised, comparative and single arm. The clinical safety will be evaluated through the analysis of adverse events and serious adverse events and thorough the 2-year survivorship of the system. Performance wil be evaluated through functional measurements and questionnaires. The clinical and safety performance of the TRAX CR TKS will be compared to the ones of modern cemented CR TKS used in primary TKA in Australia.
