NCT ID NCT05614284

First seen Dec 29, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study aimed to compare two bone graft materials (Virtuos and autograft) used during lumbar fusion surgery for patients with degenerative disc disease. The goal was to see which material led to better bone fusion rates at 12 and 24 months after surgery. However, the study was terminated early and only enrolled 6 participants, so no reliable conclusions can be drawn.
