About this study

Official title: Prospective, Single Arm, Open Label Post-Market Pilot Study to Evaluate the StabiliT Vertebral Augmentation System Treat Vertebral Compression Fractures Due to Osteoporosis

This post-market surveillance research project consists of data collection at specified time points using standard questionnaire instruments to compare pain level, mobility and function pre and post procedure using the D-Fine StabiliT® Vertebral Augmentation System and StabiliT® Bone Cement, an FDA approved product used in the standard treatment of vertebral compression fractures.

Read the detailed description

This is a single arm, post market surveillance pilot study of an FDA cleared product, to evaluate the procedural and clinical profile of an ultra high viscosity cement vertebral augmentation system for the treatment of vertebral compression vertebral fractures due to osteoporosis.

Twenty (20) consenting evaluable adult male and female patients between the ages of 50 and 90 who meet the inclusion criteria for the study and are treated using the D-Fine StabiliT® Vertebral Augmentation System and StabiliT® Bone Cement as part of their standard treatment for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures will be enrolled in the study.

The participants will be followed after the procedure for 3 months by telephone and/or mailed questionnaire by an IRB certified member of the research team. Information collected will include the patient's ability to ambulate independently and activity level pre and post-treatment, decrease or increase in pain level compared to pre-treatment, and monitoring adverse events. Data will be collected at enrollment, procedure, discharge (or 1 day post procedure), 1 week, 1 month and 3 months post procedure using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain score, Oswestry Disability Index. Standard of care radiographs and MRI or CT/bone scan are evaluated by a board certified radiologist. The data collected will be compared to measure outcomes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measure changes in pain

    Pain will be assessed using the Visual Assessment Scale (VAS) at enrollment, and interval changes captured at discharge (or 1 day), 1 week, 1 month and 3 months post procedure. Pre and post procedure pain will be compared.

    Measured: Enrollment, discharge (or 1 day), 1 week, 1 month, 3 month post procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Assess changes in mobility.

    Assess changes in mobility using the Oswestry Disability Index pre to capture interval changes at enrollment, and at 1 month and 3 months post procedure.

    Measured: Enrollment, 1 month and 3 months post procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoporosis and Vertebral Fracture, run by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measure changes in pain (time frame: Enrollment, discharge (or 1 day), 1 week, 1 month, 3 month post procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01839682, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2013.
