DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE

This study compares two types of implants used in spinal fusion surgery: 3D-printed cages and titanium-coated cages. The goal is to see which leads to better bone fusion and less disability for patients with herniated discs or degenerative spine disease. About 78 adults undergoin…

This study tests a single injection of VIA Disc NP, a processed human disc tissue, for people with long-term lower back pain from degenerated discs. About 121 participants will receive either the injection or a sham procedure. The goal is to see if the injection safely reduces pa…

This study tests a new titanium cage used in spinal fusion surgery for people with degenerative disc disease in the neck. Fifty participants will receive the device and be followed for up to 24 months to see if the bones fuse properly and if pain and function improve. It is a sma…

This study compares two types of spinal fusion cages used in back surgery: a new titanium cage with a special rough surface and a standard plastic cage. About 100 adults with spine problems like narrowing of the spinal canal or slipped vertebrae will be randomly assigned to recei…

This study looks back at the medical records of 200 people who received a Prodisc C Vivo device to replace two damaged discs in their neck. The goal is to see how often patients need additional surgery and how well the device performs compared to published data. Participants will…

This study follows 131 people who already received the Simplify Disc for cervical disc disease. Researchers will check the disc's safety and how well it works over 10 years. The goal is to see if patients have lasting pain relief and fewer complications.

This study is testing a metal plate (the NuVasive ACP system) used during neck spine surgery to treat conditions like disc disease, stenosis, or fractures. About 75 adults will receive the plate and be followed for up to 24 months to see how safe it is and how well it helps with …

This study follows 158 people who already received the Simplify artificial disc to treat cervical disc disease. Researchers will track how well the disc works over 10 years by measuring neck function, nerve health, and whether any additional surgeries or serious problems occur. T…

This study is tracking 1,050 adults who are getting NuVasive interbody implants during spine surgery for conditions like degenerative disc disease or spinal stenosis. Researchers are monitoring complications, bone fusion, and patient-reported pain relief over 24 months. The goal …

This study looks at how safe and effective special spinal implants are for people with worn-out discs or unstable neck bones. About 150 adults who need neck surgery will receive these implants and be followed for 24 months. The goal is to see if the bones fuse properly and if pat…

This study follows 300 adults aged 18-80 who need spinal fusion surgery for degenerative disc disease or spondylolisthesis. It compares three types of interbody implants (PEEK, 3D-printed titanium, and another) used with bone graft material. Researchers will track how well the bo…

This study is testing a special bone graft called Virtuos in people having spinal fusion surgery for degenerative disc disease. The goal is to see if it helps the bones heal together better and reduces pain and disability. About 150 adults will take part, and the study will compa…

This study tests a new material called Natural Matrix Protein (NMP) fibers, made from human bone, for spine fusion surgery. It includes 200 adults with degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis who need fusion of up to three vertebrae in the neck or lower b…

This study tests a device called PCSS used alongside standard neck fusion surgery to treat degenerative disc disease in the neck. About 236 adults aged 18-80 who need surgery on three neck levels will be enrolled. The goal is to see if the device helps bones fuse better and safel…

This study tests a new bone graft material (P-15L) for spinal fusion surgery in people with degenerative disc disease. The goal is to see if it works as well as the standard bone graft in helping bones fuse together and reducing pain. About 290 adults aged 22-80 will take part, a…

This study tests whether a single injection of rexlemestrocel-L (a type of stem cell) combined with hyaluronic acid can reduce chronic low back pain for at least 12 months. It involves 300 adults with moderate to severe pain from a worn spinal disc who haven't improved with stand…

This study looks at two different ways to manage pain after lower back surgery without relying on drugs. About 267 adults will be randomly assigned to either standard care or an enriched pain management plan. The goal is to see which approach better reduces pain and helps people …

This study looks at whether a non-surgical treatment called spinal decompression can help people with chronic low back pain. About 42 adults with back pain from disc problems or sciatica will receive the treatment over 12 weeks. Researchers will use MRI scans and movement tests t…

This study aimed to compare two treatments for chronic low back pain caused by worn-out discs: injections of a person's own stem cells (from bone marrow) versus steroid injections. It planned to enroll adults with pain lasting over 6 months who had not improved with other treatme…

This study looks at three ways surgeons place screws in the spine during surgery: using a robot, using a navigation system, or doing it by hand. The goal is to see which method leads to fewer screws needing to be fixed in a second surgery within the first year. About 932 adults w…

This study follows 150 adults undergoing back-of-the-neck and upper spine surgery with metal screws and rods (posterior fixation) for injuries, tumors, or worn-out discs. Researchers track complications, X-ray results, and patient-reported pain over time. The goal is to better un…

This study planned to test a noninvasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve through the skin to see if it could help people recover consciousness more quickly after anesthesia. The researchers wanted to enroll adults undergoing lumbar spine surgery and measure how fast they w…

This study follows 22 adults undergoing spinal fusion surgery (LLIF or ALIF) to see how long hip and leg weakness lasts. Researchers measure muscle strength before surgery and again at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months after. The goal is to give patients a clearer idea of when they…

This study was designed to check how well the Arcadius XP L spine fusion device works and if it is safe for people with chronic low-back pain from conditions like degenerative disc disease or instability. The plan was to follow 60 patients for at least one year after surgery. How…
