Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at adults with spinal deformity to understand which factors—like pain, daily functioning, mental health, and frailty—most influence quality of life. It follows 320 people receiving either conservative care, first-time corrective surgery, or a reoperation, using questionnaires and routine imaging. The goal is to support more personalized, person-centered treatment decisions.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this research could help doctors tailor spinal deformity care to each person's physical and emotional needs, improving quality of life beyond just correcting the spine.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and the two-year follow-up may not capture long-term outcomes.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 320 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Aug 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Jul 2029

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Voluntary written informed consent of the participant or their legally authorized representative has been obtained prior to any screening procedures 2. Age at inclusion 18 years or older. 3. Diagnosed with Adult spinal deformity 4. Planned routine management through one of the following pathways: 1. Conservative/non-operative management; 2. Primary ASD surgery; 3. Revision ASD surgery. 5. Ability to complete the Dutch-language questionnaire package. Exclusion Criteria: 1. No valid informed consent. 2. Missing baseline structural imaging required for endpoint determination. We allow images to be older than 2 years if no new radiographs are obtained, in accordance with the ALARA principle. 3. Inability to complete the Dutch-language questionnaire package. 4. Known cognitive impairment, severe psychiatric condition, or other condition that, in the Investigator's judgement, precludes valid informed consent or reliable completion of study assessments. 5. Primary spinal condition other than adult spinal deformity that is expected to invalidate endpoint assessment, including acute traumatic, infectious, tumour-related, or inflammatory spinal pathology as the main reason for presentation.
