NCT ID NCT06521814
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study was designed to test a device called the Globus Reflect Tether for children and teens with scoliosis who are still growing. The device is surgically attached to the spine to hold the curve in place, allowing the other side to grow and gradually straighten the spine. The trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no data was collected.
