NCT ID: NCT00943384 Completed - Clinical trials for Degeneration of Lumbar Intervertebral Disc

Prospective, Multi-Center Clinical Outcomes Study Evaluating the chronOS Strip Combined With Bone Marrow Aspirate

Start date: July 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The chronOS Strip is a synthetic bone void filler manufactured from chronOS beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) granules and a resorbable polymer [poly(lactide co-ε-caprolactone)]. The chronOS Strip, combined with autogenous bone and/or bone marrow or autograft, is intended to be used in the spine for posterolateral fusion. The purpose of this prospective, multi-center clinical case series was to evaluate posterolateral fusion rates in a prospective series of patients with degenerative disc disease. The surgical procedure consisted of instrumented posterolateral fusion with interbody support. The chronOS Strip, combined with bone marrow aspirate and local bone, was applied to the posterolateral gutters.

NCT ID: NCT00942045 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease in Cervical Spine

Osteocel® Plus in Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)

Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This is a prospective, non-randomized multi-center study to compare the use of Osteocel Plus in subjects who receive ACDF surgery at one or two levels. These subjects will present with degenerative conditions in the cervical spine that are amenable to surgical treatment and will be screened prior to study enrollment. Subjects will receive Osteocel Plus, without any other biologic product, during their ACDF operation. The ACDF procedure will be conducted with a radiolucent graft containment device such that progression of fusion can be adequately assessed via radiograph. Subjects will be followed for 24-months following surgery to determine the number of study subjects that are solidly fused at or before 24 months postoperatively, and to determine the mean time to fusion. This data will be compared to published and/or retrospective data for autograft, synthetic ceramics and Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP).

NCT ID: NCT00941980 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Osteocel® Plus in Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF)

Start date: June 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This study is being conducted to determine the percentage of patients with solid spinal fusions after being treated with Osteocel Plus in a PLIF procedure. Due to the unique processing conditions, Osteocel Plus retains a high concentration of stem cells attached to the allograft bone matrix, so it is hypothesized that the fusion rate with Osteocel Plus will be comparable to published data for autograft. The Osteocel product family has already been used in approximately 20,000 cases worldwide.

NCT ID: NCT00931515 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Trial Evaluating the Safety and Effectiveness of NUBAC™ Disc Arthroplasty

Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The NuBac device is indicated for reconstruction following nucleotomy in skeletally mature patients at least 18 years of age with symptomatic single level degenerative disc disease (DDD) at L4/L5 only. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with or without leg pain; with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by patient history, physical examination, radiographic studies showing: decreased disc height, contained herniated nucleus, vacuum phenomenon (dark disc) OR positive discography at the affected level. These DDD patients should have no more than Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level and should have failed at least six months of conservative, non-operative care. Demonstrate non-inferiority compared to ProDisc.

NCT ID: NCT00927238 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

XL TDR® eXtreme Lateral Total Disc Replacement for the Treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD)

XL TDR
Start date: July 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of XL TDR in patients with single-level degenerative disc disease compared to other devices approved by the FDA for the same or similar indications.

NCT ID: NCT00878579 Terminated - Clinical trials for Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease

Percutaneous Dynamic Stabilization (PDS) System Versus Fusion for Treating Degenerative Disc Disease

Start date: March 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PDS System compared to the surgical control of posterolateral fusion with autograft and pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of one or two levels from L3-S1 to relieve back pain associated with degenerative disc disease.

NCT ID: NCT00813813 Completed - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Intradiscal rhGDF-5 Phase I/II Clinical Trial

Start date: June 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Study to show the effectiveness and safety of a single injection of rhGDF5 into a degenerating single spinal disc in treating lumbar level degenerative disc disease

NCT ID: NCT00810212 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Safety and Efficacy Study of NeoFuse in Subjects Requiring Posterolateral Lumbar Fusion

Start date: November 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of Neofusetm in subjects with a diagnosis of degenerative disc disease (DDD) in 1 or 2 adjacent vertebral levels between L1 and S1 and undergoing posterolateral lumbar fusion.

NCT ID: NCT00798902 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Pilot Study to Assess Safety/Preliminary Effectiveness of Prefix in Subjects With Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) Undergoing Spine Fusion Surgery

Start date: November 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a pilot study to evaulate the safety and prelimary effectiveness of Prefix as compared to autogenous bone for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature subjects with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level from L2-S1.
