Clinical Trial: Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of a Guided Bone Regeneration Membrane for the Treatment of Femoral Fractures

Study Status: Terminated
Recruit Status: Unknown status
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Randomised Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety Performance and Initial Efficacy of a Guided Bone Regeneration Membrane for the Treatment of Proximal (Subtrochanteric) Femoral

Brief Summary:

Certain types of fractures require surgical intervention that may involve the use of bone grafts or bone graft substitutes. Many of the materials used as bone graft substitutes suffer from disadvantages such as soft tissue invasion of the fracture area, inadequate blood supply, failure to encourage the production of bone and ectopic bone formation.

A guided bone regeneration (GBR) environment may help in solving these clinical concerns. GBR has been widely used in the field of dentistry since the 1980s to provide stable placement for dental implants

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, performance and initial efficacy of Regenecure's, AMCA Bone Membrane, as a bone stimulating aid for orthopedic trauma applications.
