Diese Studie wurde als potenziell hochrangig eingestuft.
Die KI-gesteuerte High-Impact-Metrik von OE schätzt den Einfluss ein, den eine Arbeit wahrscheinlich haben wird, indem sie Signale sowohl aus der Zeitschrift, in der sie veröffentlicht wurde, als auch aus dem wissenschaftlichen Inhalt des Artikels selbst integriert.
Das mit Hilfe modernster natürlicher Sprachverarbeitung entwickelte OE High Impact-Modell sagt die zukünftige Zitationsleistung einer Studie genauer voraus als der Impact-Faktor einer Zeitschrift allein.
Dies ermöglicht eine frühere Erkennung von klinisch bedeutsamer Forschung und hilft den Lesern, sich auf Artikel zu konzentrieren, die die zukünftige Praxis am ehesten beeinflussen werden.

Participants were subject to intramedullary nail fixation in 1 of 4 treatment protocols: 1) nail fixation alone (standard of care), 2) augmented with 1.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM, 3) augmented with 2.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM, or 4) augmented with buffer/CPM. The study was terminated early due to futility, with a lack of efficacy in time to fracture union.

Der Fragilitätsindex ist ein Instrument, das bei der Interpretation signifikanter Ergebnisse hilft und ein Maß für die Stärke eines Ergebnisses liefert. Der Fragilitätsindex gibt die Anzahl der aufeinanderfolgenden Ereignisse an, die zu einem dichotomen Ergebnis hinzugefügt werden müssen, damit das Ergebnis nicht mehr signifikant ist. Eine kleine Zahl steht für ein schwächeres Ergebnis und eine große Zahl für ein stärkeres Ergebnis.
Warum wurde diese Studie jetzt benötigt?
The standard of care for the majority of tibial fractures has become intramedullary fixation. Despite this treatment, these fractures may display delayed healing or non-union, requiring secondary intervention. Osteoconductive proteins, such as recombinant human bone morphogenetic proteins (rhBMP), have been researched as a possible adjuvant in acute fracture treatment to improve fracture and wound-healing. A factor that needs to be considered with such intervention is maintaining the osteoconductive product at the fracture site for a sufficient amount of time to stimulate healing. A calcium phosphate matrix (CPM) carrier is a newly developed product that has displayed promising preliminary results for delivery of the rhBMP to the fracture site.
Was war die wichtigste Forschungsfrage?
In intramedullary nailing for closed diaphyseal tibial fractures, does adjuvant rhBMP-2/CPM stimulate healing and reduce time-to-healing compared to standard of care (SOC), measured over 52 weeks postoperatively?
- Based on an interim analysis conducted after the enrollment of 180 patients, the study was terminated early due to futility (lack of efficacy in time to fracture union, p>0.476 between rhBMP-2/CPM 2.0mg/mL group and SOC only group). Of the planned 600 patients, 387 were enrolled and randomized.
- In total, 57% of patients completed the study. The majority of patients who had discontinued participation in the study did so after fracture union had already been achieved. The main reasons for discontinuation were sponsor (Wyeth) withdrawal (15%), loss to follow-up (13%), and patient request (10%).
- The median time to fracture union was similar between groups (p>0.05). Times to fracture union were 13.1 weeks in the SOC group, 13.0 weeks in the 1.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, 15.9 weeks in the 2.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, and 15.4 weeks in the buffer/CPM group.
- Fracture union was achieved similarly between groups: 91.5% for the SOC group, 88.8% for the 1.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, 88.4% for the 2.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, and 86.2% the buffer/CPM group. Delayed union and nonunion was similarly low between groups: 3-5% across groups. Hardware failure occurred most frequently in the 2.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group (14%). The rates in the other 3 groups were 6-7%.
- Groups achieved pain-free full weight-bearing at similar times. Median times to full weight-bearing were 13.4 weeks in the SOC group, 13.4 weeks in the 1.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, 14.3 weeks in the 2.0mg/mL rhBMP-2/CPM group, and 16.4 weeks in the buffer/CPM group.
- The rate of compartment syndrome was also similarly low across groups (2-3%). The rate of grade-3 or -4 edema was low among all four groups (0-2%).
- Venous thromboembolic events occurred in 2% of the 1.0mg/mL rhBMP/CPM group, 3% of the 2.0mg/mL rhBMP/CPM group, and 2% of the buffer/CPM group, with none occurring in the SOC group. The difference was not statistically significant and the events were judged not related to rhBMP-2 intervention.
- Postoperative heterotopic ossification and calcinosis was higher among the injected groups.
Was sollte ich mir besonders merken?
Augmentation with Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein 2 (rhBMP-2) within a Calcium Phosphate Matrix carrier in intramedullary nail fixation for closed tibial fractures did not demonstrate any beneficial effect in time to union or time to full weight-bearing when compared to non-augmented fixation. Due to this lack of efficacy, the study was terminated early.
Wie wird sich dies auf die Behandlung meiner Patienten auswirken?
The use of rhBMP-2 with a calcium phosphate matrix carrier in fixation of closed tibial fractures is not suggested based on the findings of this research. Post hoc review suggested that bioavailability of the test article may have been reduced due to changes in its preparation from the phase I to phase II/III trial. Further study may be warranted for optimizing rhBMP-2 preparations and delivery systems.
