About this study

Official title: A Combined Retrospective and Prospective Protocol to Evaluate Vitoss With and Without Bone Marrow Aspirate for Benign Cavitary Lesions

This is a retrospective, two-arm study reviewing the healing of cavitary defects in patients treated with Vitoss alone versus those treated with Vitoss with bone marrow aspirate (BMA). There will be a prospective follow-up visit at 24+ months to evaluate lont-term healing in patients identified during the retrospective portion of the study. It is thought that the inclusion of BMA will facilitate the resorption of the graft material, leading to better long-term bone healing.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Vitoss resorption into the native bone as observed via CT

    Percentage of Vitoss resorption into the native bone will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Presence of graft within the soft tissue as observed by CT

    Presence of the graft within the soft tissue will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

  2. Presence of a rim of radiolucency surrounding the grafted defect as observed by CT

    Presence of a rim of radiolucency surrounding the grafted defect will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

  3. Size of the defect as observed by CT

    The size of the defect will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

  4. Bone trabeculation through the defect as observed by CT

    Bone trabeculation through the defect will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

  5. Persistence of graft material through the lesion as observed by CT

    Persistence of graft material through the lesion will be retrospectively recorded in the Case Report Form at the 6 week, 3, 6, 12 and 18 month timepoints based on review of x-rays as well.

    Measured: minimum of 24 months post-operatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bone Diseases, run by Orthovita d/b/a Stryker 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2014. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Percentage of Vitoss resorption into the native bone as observed via CT (time frame: minimum of 24 months post-operatively). 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 NCT02165943, which also lists 6 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 18 Jun 2014.
