About this study

The CopiOs Bone Void Filler (BVF) is a synthetic bone graft material consisting of calcium phosphate dehydrate within lyophilized type I bovine collagen that has been formed into pads of various sizes for surgical implantation. Pre-clinical animal studies suggest that the bone healing strength of CopiOs to be equivalent to autograft.

Read the detailed description

Purpose of the study is to evaluate the in-vivo use of CopiOs bone void filler in a single site trial, providing pre and post-operative evaluations of subjects undergoing spinal fusion with autogenous bone graft, in whom the CopiOs has been used as a bone void filler in the post-harvest iliac crest.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Data obtained by this study will provide valuable insight on the ability of CopiOs to fill the post-harvest iliac crest bone void created by a surgeon during spinal fusion. (time frame: 6 Months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
