The FDA has the authority to require sponsors to perform a post-approval study (or studies) at the time of approval of a premarket approval (PMA), humanitarian device exemption (HDE), or product development protocol (PDP) application. Post-approval studies can provide patients, health care professionals, the device industry, the FDA and other stakeholders information on the continued safety and effectiveness (or continued probable benefit, in the case of an HDE) of approved medical devices. This database allows you to search Post-Approval Study information by applicant or device information.

Device Name TOUCH® CMC 1 Prosthesis
Clinical Trial Number(s) NCT01954433 
General Study Protocol Parameters
Study Design Prospective Cohort Study
Data Source New Data Collection
Comparison Group Objective Performance Criterion
Analysis Type Analytical
Study Population Adult: At least 22 yrs
Detailed Study Protocol Parameters
Study Objectives Prospective, multi-center, single-arm observational post-approval study (PAS) with hypothesis testing.
The purpose of this study is to meet a PMA (P240020) condition of approval of the TOUCH® CMC 1 Prosthesis to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the prosthesis in the United States (US) population. The device performance in newly enrolled US patients implanted by US surgeons will be compared to device performance observed within the outside the US (OUS) premarket cohort.
Study Population US Adult patients requiring surgical intervention for treating 1st CMC joint osteoarthritis that are indicated for the device, do not have any contraindications and who have failed non-conservative treatment.
Sample Size Minimum of 163 subjects
Up to 8 US sites, with no single site enrolls greater than 25% of subjects
Key Study Endpoints A composite clinical success (CSS) endpoint will be evaluated at 24 months/2 years post-implantation.

To be considered as a success, a subject must meet all of the following criteria:
Improvement of pain: A clinically meaningful improvement in pain during activities defined as a decrease in the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain score of greater than or equal to 30% on a 10-point scale.
Maintenance or improvement in function: defined by key pinch strength, which is greater than or equal to 85% of the subject’s pre-operative key pinch strength.
Safety: success is defined as freedom from:
o Subsequent surgical interventions (SSI) (i.e., reoperation, revision, removal of any study component, or supplemental fixations) on the study carpometacarpal joint, or
Serious, device- or procedure-related adverse events
Secondary endpoints will be evaluated through 2 years.
