Prospective, Multi-Center, Single Arm, Pilot Study to Evaluate Symptom Relief in Subjects With Medial Knee Osteoarthritis Treated With the AtlasTM Knee System for Load Reduction
The primary objective of this pilot study is to collect data on the safety and effectiveness
of the Atlas Knee System in subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis through 24 months
postoperative follow-up.
of the Atlas Knee System in subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis through 24 months
postoperative follow-up.
This study is designed as a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single arm, pilot study.
Eligible subjects with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the medial compartment of the knee will
be enrolled in the study and will receive the Atlas Knee Implant. The study population will
consist of adult subjects age 25 to 80 years, with a diagnosis of medial knee osteoarthritis
(Kellgen and Lawrence Grades 1-4, except those with bony erosions) and has pain in the study
knee demonstrated as an overall WOMAC pain score of ≥ 40 (scale 0-100).

(Kellgen and Lawrence Grades 1-4, except those with bony erosions) and has pain in the study
knee demonstrated as an overall WOMAC pain score of ≥ 40 (scale 0-100).
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Male or female subjects age 25 to 80 years at time of screening
2. Clinical symptoms (such as pain primarily localized to the medial aspect of the knee
and generally exacerbated by weight bearing) and radiographic evidence of
osteoarthritis in the medial compartment of the knee
- Weight-bearing Fixed Flexion view is recommended to verify radiographic evidence
of osteoarthritis
- KL Grade 1-4, except those with bony erosion
3. Has pain in the study knee as demonstrated by a minimum score of 40 (scale 0-100) on
the WOMAC pain questions in KOOS
4. Has failed at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment with continued
osteoarthritis (OA) pain. Prior treatment is defined as treatment with at least one of
the following interventions (listed on the AAOS Clinical Practice Guidelines on the
Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee Non-arthroplasty):
- Lifestyle modification
- Weight loss, if BMI ≥35
- Pain relievers
- Physical Therapy
- Orthotics (Splints, Braces)
- Intra-Articular (IA) corticosteroid injections.
5. Knee flexion ≥90⁰
6. Body Mass Index (BMI) of <35 or weight <300 lbs.
7. Subjects who are able to give voluntary written informed consent to participate in
this clinical investigation
8. Subjects, who, in the opinion of the Clinical Investigator, are able to understand
this clinical investigation, cooperate with the investigational procedures, and are
willing to return for all the required post-treatment follow up visits.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Clinical symptoms or radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis in the lateral
compartment of the study knee defined as Kellgren & Lawrence (K&L) grade of > 1
2. Clinical symptoms or radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis in the patella-femoral
compartment of the study knee defined as K&L grade ≥ 3
3. Clinical symptoms or radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis at the contralateral knee
that would preclude activity of daily living, stair climbing, stair descending, or
requires the use of an assist device
4. Tibial-femoral alignment of more than 10⁰ of varus, or more than 6⁰ of valgus, as
measured using anatomical axis on a standing Hip-Knee-Ankle or long standing AP view
X-ray OR Hip-Knee-Ankle alignment of more than 16⁰ of varus, or more than 0⁰ of
valgus, as measured using mechanical axis on a standing Hip-Knee-Ankle AP view x-ray
5. Previous joint modifying surgery in the study knee within 12 months prior to planned
surgery date such as ligament reconstruction, meniscus repair, cartilage
transplantation, and microfracture
6. Arthroscopic surgeries for joint lavage, meniscectomy, chondral debridement, and loose
body removal are excluded if within 3 months prior to planned surgery date;
7. Active infection, sepsis, osteomyelitis or history of septic arthritis in any joint;
8. Previous lateral meniscectomy >30% of the study knee
9. Previous patellar surgery in the study knee
10. Previous osteotomy or failed knee joint replacement in the study knee
11. Hyperextension >5⁰
12. Flexion contracture > 10⁰
13. Pathologic ligamentous or meniscal instability (Lachman > 1) as assessed by the
Investigator;
14. Suspected or documented allergy or hypersensitivity to cobalt, chromium, iron, or
nickel metals;
15. Rheumatoid arthritis, other forms of inflammatory joint disease or autoimmune
disorder;
16. Paget's disease or metabolic disorders which may impair bone formation;
17. Known or suspected diagnosis of Osteomalacia;
18. Known or suspected diagnosis of Osteonecrosis;
19. Rapid joint destruction, marked bone loss or bone resorption apparent on x-ray;
20. Osteoporosis or radiolucency of the femoral or tibial cortex on x-ray suggestive of
moderate to severe osteoporosis, pathologic fractures, or bone mineral density T score
of > 2.5 Standard Deviation (SD) below young adult reference mean (all subjects will
be screened for risk of osteoporosis using the validated Osteoporosis Self-Assessment
Tool (OST) score, subjects with high risk will undergo a DEXA scan to determine
eligibility;
21. Charcot's joint disease or other severe neurosensory deficits;
22. Vascular insufficiency, muscular atrophy, neuromuscular disease;
23. Immunologically suppressed or immunocompromised;
24. History of systemic steroid treatment, medication use that affects bone metabolism
(such as chemotherapy) within the previous 6 months, or radiotherapy within the
previous 6 months
25. Any significant medical condition including:
- Diabetes mellitus requiring daily insulin therapy
- Neuropathic pain or fibromyalgia, or any knee or other pain requiring chronic
pain management
