Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the OsteoAdapt SP as a replacement for the autograft standard of care bone graft within the interbody cage, as well as identify the OsteoAdapt SP dose to be investigated in a future pivotal study.

Description:

This Feasibility Study is a prospective, blinded, controlled, dose-randomized, multicenter, investigational study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the OsteoAdapt SP in single-level TLIF procedures for the treatment of symptomatic degenerative diseases of the lumbosacral spine.

Patients undergoing elective unilateral, single-level, single interbody cage TLIF who have had at least 6 months of conservative care, met the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria, and sign the patient informed consent will be screened for enrollment and treated consistent with current TLIF surgical standard of care except that the autograft bone graft component within the interbody cage will be replaced with OsteoAdapt SP. Patients will be randomized to receive OsteoAdapt SP at one of two available concentrations (0.8 mg/cc or 2 mg/cc) with ~ 25-26 patients in each group, or the control group consisting of another ~25-26 patients for a total of ~75-80 patients. Standard lottery randomization will be used with equal weight in each of the three groups. The investigational group will use the randomized concentration of OsteoAdapt SP within the interbody cage and placement of autograft anterior (or laterally within the disc space) to the cage if desired by the investigator.

Control subjects will have autograft harvested from the local site and utilized both inside and anterior (or lateral) to the interbody cage with the option of banked mineralized frozen allograft to supplement if there is not enough local autograft available.

Intervention

Device:
• OsteoAdapt SP
OsteoAdapt SP is a combination of AMP2 protein bound to an osteoconductive carrier matrix, ReBOSSIS-J. OsteoAdapt SP is a combination of AMP2 protein bound to an osteoconductive carrier matrix, ReBOSSIS-J. AMP2 is a recombinant variant of a naturally occurring human protein, rhBMP2, that has been modified to allow very tight binding to ß-TCP and similar ceramics. AMP2 is osteoinductive, meaning that the protein stimulates new bone formation at the site of implantation through the same intracellular signaling process as rhBMP2. ReBOSSIS-J is a synthetic, resorbable bone void filler. ReBOSSIS-J is flexible and can easily fill defects of different sizes using appropriate amounts of the device. The combination product, OsteoAdapt SP, is hydrated at the time of surgery with saline and placed into the interbody fusion cage.

Other:
• Local Autograft
For control arm, local autograft will be utilized inside the interbody cage.
