Summary

This study tests a new device called the LINQ system, which is implanted through a small incision to fuse the sacroiliac joint. It compares the procedure to standard non-surgical treatments like medication and physical therapy. The trial will enroll 200 adults with chronic sacroiliac joint pain that hasn't responded to other treatments. The main goal is to see if the device provides better pain relief and safety over six months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: LINQ system (bone allograft implant for sacroiliac fusion)
What this could lead to: If successful, this could offer a minimally invasive surgical option for people with chronic sacroiliac joint pain that hasn't improved with other treatments.
What could go wrong: This is a phase 4 trial, but it hasn't started recruiting yet. The surgery carries risks like infection or device problems, and it may not work better than non-surgical care.
