NCT ID NCT02466048
First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 9 times
Summary
This study tested a bone grafting material called SurgiFill™ in 20 adults undergoing spinal fusion surgery. The goal was to see if adding SurgiFill™ to the patient's own bone helped the vertebrae fuse better. Researchers compared bone healing on CT scans and X-rays over 12 months.

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 healing and fusion success in 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 widely. The material may not significantly improve fusion or could cause side effects like allergic reactions.
