First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new disc implant called PerQdisc for people with chronic low back pain from degenerative disc disease. The implant is placed in the spine after removing the damaged disc material. Researchers will track 72 participants to see if the implant improves pain and function, and whether it stays in place safely.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

PerQdisc Nucleus Replacement System (a disc implant)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a new surgical option for people with chronic low back pain who haven't improved with other treatments.

What could go wrong

This is an early-stage study with only 72 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The implant could fail, move out of place, or require more surgery.
