NCT ID NCT02466048

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested a material called SurgiFill™, which is used alongside a patient's own bone during spinal fusion surgery. The goal was to see if it helps the bones fuse better and safely. Twenty adults who needed spinal fusion took part, and doctors compared the fusion results on one side of the spine with SurgiFill™ versus the other side without it.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

SurgiFill™ (bone grafting material)

What this could lead to

If successful, SurgiFill™ could improve bone fusion after spinal surgery, potentially reducing the need for additional bone grafts.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The long-term safety and effectiveness are still uncertain.
