Clinical Trial Summary

The primary endpoints of the investigation will include assessment of the maintenance of disc height demonstrated by radiographic evidence based on plain radiographs and MRI and relief of pain as measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at six months post-surgery. It is anticipated that outcomes with the InterCushion Disc Nucleus Prosthesis (DNP) will be comparable to or better than the historical published results for discectomy alone.


Clinical Trial Description

All patients will be followed for at least 24 months once enrolled in the study. Clinical evaluations will be conducted before surgery (baseline), intraoperative, 2 week (± 1 week), 6 week (± 1 week), 3 months (± 2 weeks), 6 months (± 1 month), 12 months (± 2 months) and 24 months (± 2 months). ;
