Degenerative Disc Disease Clinical Trials

The Conduit cages are intended to restore the intervertebral height and to facilitate the intervertebral body fusion in the cervical and lumbar spine in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease and instabilities at one or more levels of the spine. The Fibergraft Bioactive Glass (BG) is engineered to mimic the body's natural bone healing process. While previous studies have described the use of conduit cages in interbody fixation procedures, these studies did not specifically study the clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients who have received these implants in addition to Fibergraft. We aim to recruit patients with degenerative disc disease, and instabilities at one to multilevel contiguous levels between C2-T1 and 1-2 contiguous levels between L2-S1 of the spine with accompanying radicular symptoms, ruptured or herniated discs, and pseudarthrosis and spondylodesis. We will then follow these patients for a duration of two years to report their clinical and radiographic outcomes to determine fusion, complication rate, and revision surgeries if any. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to systematically, prospectively compare surgical fusion techniques for thoracolumbar spinal fusion patients and assess long-term patient outcomes and revision rates following surgery. Read Less

This is an observational, descriptive, prospective and retrospective data collection study. The purpose of this study is to observe radiographic outcomes of patients who will undergo anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) utilizing Tritanium C (Stryker Spine). The rate of fusion success and adverse events will be compared retrospectively to patients who underwent instrumented ACDF utilizing structural allograft bone with plates. Read Less

The primary objective of the study is a data collection initiative. The study will collect clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients implanted with patient specific rods. The secondary objective is to collect clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients with hardware as a control cohort to the patient-specific rods. Read Less

The purpose of this multi-center, prospective, observational registry is to gather information on the clinical outcomes and real-world use of commercially available bone graft substitutes manufactured by OssDsign® AB, in patients who require spine fusion. Read Less

The proposed intervention will examine two alternative methods for postoperative pain control. Two treatment arms of this study will include subjects who receive an erector spinae block (ESP) after induction of anesthesia but prior to the start of surgery and subjects who will receive a high volume of local anesthetic infiltration at the end of the procedure before emergence from anesthesia. The control group of subjects will undergo spinal surgery with general anesthesia but without any regional anesthesia. Outcome measurements include evaluation of serum inflammatory markers, pain scores, opioid usage and standardized evidence-based assessment methodologies. Read Less

The purpose of this trial is to collect clinical outcomes including radiographic and CT outcomes in patients who undergo spinal fusion using the Keos Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device. Read Less

To evaluate and compare two platelet-based treatments of the functional spinal unit spaced 4 weeks apart to sham procedures for the treatment of degenerative disc disease. Read Less

The objective of this clinical study is to compare OSTEOAMP SELECT Fibers to Infuse Bone Graft, in terms of effectiveness and safety, when used as a bone graft substitute in in skeletally mature patients qualified for 2-lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) by means of an intra-patient control model.

Compare the lumbar fusion rates at 12 and 24 months when lumbar arthrodesis is performed using Virtuous or Autograft Bone Graft. Surgical approach is limited to TLIF (MIS or Open) with posterior fixation and supplemental posterolateral fusion as directed by physician, but must comply with FDA approved/cleared indication for use and labeling.

This is a prospective, multi-center study of subjects who will undergo spinal fusion surgery utilizing Stryker Interbody Systems that require post market clinical follow up (PMCF). The primary study hypothesis for each system is that the mean change in NDI (cervical) or ODI (lumbar) from baseline to Month 12 < -10, that is, the mean improvement exceeds 10 points. In supporting analysis, the same hypotheses will be tested for mean change from baseline to 24 months to demonstrate durability of effectiveness. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to measure the success rate of lumbar fusion in subjects at 12 months when instrumented lumbar arthrodesis is performed using OssiMend Bioactive Moldable as the bone grafting material Read Less
