SYNOSTE Nitinail System Trial is an international multicenter open label single-arm equivalence study to verify whether the leg-lengthening procedure can be adequately controlled with the SNS system as measured with the lengthening control index (LCI) at the end of the distraction period.
The SYNOSTE Nitinail System (SNS) is an assembly of an active implantable distraction nail (SYNOSTE Nitinail), Locking screws, accessory instruments for surgery and the home care unit (also External control unit (ECU) or Halo). It includes also, a software tool, Syndex, that supports setting up the number of lengthening activations needed per day.
The SNS is intended for lengthening of the femur by distraction osteogenesis.
The study will consist of a recruitment period of 3 months and an observation period of roughly 24 months (6 months after explantation). The observation period is split in two parts: The first part contains the most critical treatment phases from implantation surgery of the device through the actual lengthening phase up to the end of the bone healing. The second part contains only two visits: the explantation surgery of the device and a control at 6 months of further follow-up.
After the fist part of the trial, a primary analysis of the data including the hypothesis testing will be carried out. After the second part of the trial a follow-up analysis will be done.
16 (max 20) patients will be recruited in Finland and Turkey.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| SYNOSTE Nitinail System | Device | Mode of application: 1. Implantation surgery: osteotomy and antegrade implantation of SNS in femur for distraction osteogenesis (callotasis), 2. distraction osteogenesis (implant lengthening phase), 3. Bone healing (implant as stabilizing element during consolidation phase), 4. Explantation after consolidation. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Lengthening control index (LCI) | The primary objective is to verify whether the leg-lengthening procedure can be adequately controlled with the SNS system as measured with the lengthening control index (LCI) at the end of the distraction period defined as LCI = DIachieved / DIscheduled ,where DIachieved = Achieved distraction index, ie. the daily rate of distraction has on average occurred during the lengthening phase in mm/d. DIscheduled = mean scheduled lengthening rate in mm/day. Analyzed at primary analysis. | 2,5 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Performance of Nitinail/Mechanical stability of Nitinail | Mechanical stability of Nitinail as defined by the ratio of the numbers of breakages (nail and screws) to total nails implanted (% and absolute values) at the end of consolidation | 6-9 months |
| Performance of Nitinail/Nitinail lengthening target achieved (%) |

Nitinail lengthening target achieved as defined by % of targeted lengthening achieved by Nitinail determined at the end of lengthening period |
| 2,5 months |
| Performance of Nitinail/Nitinail lengthening target achieved (absolute value) | Nitinail lengthening target achieved as defined by absolute value of targeted lengthening achieved by Nitinail determined at the end of lengthening period | 2,5 months |
| Performance of Nitinail/Translation of nail lengthening to bone lengthening (%) | Translation of nail lengthening to bone lengthening as % of the Bone gap increase from achieved lengthening of Nitinail determined at the end of lengthening period | 2,5 months |
| Performance of Nitinail/Translation of nail lengthening to bone lengthening (absolute value) | Translation of nail lengthening to bone lengthening as absolute value of the Bone gap increase from achieved lengthening of Nitinail determined at the end of lengthening period | 2,5 months |
| Performance of Nitinail/Retention of achieved length by Nitinail | Retention of achieved length by Nitinail as change of achieved lengthening of Nitinail between end of distraction and end of consolidation | 6-9 months |
| Patient Reported Outcomes/Patient Satisfaction | Patient satisfaction as the overall satisfaction value from Numeric Rating Scale at end of consolidation and final follow-up. The NRS for overall outcomes is a undimensional measure of satisfaction intensity, where the patient selects among 0-10 integers to describe the intensity of their overall satisfaction with the treatment outcomes on a horizontal line. "0" represents completely dissatisfied and "10" fully satisfied | 6-9 months AND 24 months |
| Patient Reported Outcomes/Patient Satisfaction (aesthetic outcomes) | Patient satisfaction as the aesthetic outcomes value from Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at end of consolidation and final follow-up. The NRS for aesthetic outcomes is a undimensional measure of satisfaction intensity, where the patient selects among 0-10 integers to describe the intensity of their satisfaction with the aesthetic outcomes on a horizontal line. "0" represents completely dissatisfied and "10" fully satisfied. | 6-9 months AND 24 months |
| Patient Reported Outcomes/Change in scores of 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) | Change in scores of SF-36 from preoperative baseline to end of consolidation for Primary analysis and to last visit for the Follow-up analysis.

The SF-36 is an established and widely used set of generic, coherent, and easily administered quality-of-life measures in adults. Scoring will be done according to the instructions provided by RAND. Single item scores as well as health concept scale scores range from 0 to 100.
