New leg bone plate system passes safety check in small study
NCT ID NCT05245617
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at how safe and effective the JuniOrtho plating system is for treating congenital deformities and fractures in the lower limbs of 30 children and adults. The device is a metal plate and screws used during surgery to hold bones in place while they heal. Researchers tracked side effects and how well bones healed, finding that the device performed as expected with no major safety concerns.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- JuniOrtho™ Plating System™ (a metal plate and screw device used in surgery to fix bone deformities or fractures)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study confirms that the JuniOrtho plating system is safe and works well for treating lower limb bone problems, supporting its continued use in hospitals.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed observational study with only 30 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. It does not compare the device to other treatments, so we cannot know if it is better or worse than alternatives.

Who is studied
This study will be conducted only on patients with a regular indication for JPS JuniOrtho Plating System as per IFU: the system is intended in pediatric (excluding newborns) and small stature adult patients. Pediatric patients include infants (greater than 1 month to 1 years of age), children (greater than 1 to 12 years of age), adolescents (greater than 12 to 18 years of age) and appropriate adults (where according to investigator assessment, the JPS plates fit the treated bone anatomy).

Inclusion Criteria: a patient will be eligible for inclusion in the study if: * had a regular indication for surgical intervention with JPS according to the manufacturer's IFU; * underwent a surgery for bone deformity correction or trauma reconstruction of the lower extremities performed by JPS; * the clinical data registered in her/him patient chart are sufficient to assess the safety and efficacy endpoint of the study; * patient (or his/her legally acceptable representative) is capable of understanding the content of the Informed Consent Form (ICF) \[applicable for the prospective group of patients\] * patient is willing and able to participate in the prospective data collection and comply with the protocol requirements; Note: for the retrospective group of patients to whom all interventions and control visits were already done, a waiver of consent for retrospective data collection to be requested. Exclusion Criteria: a Patient will be excluded from participation in the study if he/she: * had/has a medical condition that is a contraindication according to the manufacturer's instruction for use leaflet; * had/has a concomitant not permitted device which cannot be safely removed; * patient for whom there are other concurrent medical or other conditions that in opinion of the participating investigator may prevent participation or otherwise render patient ineligible for the study.
