About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a Spine Fusion System in Vertebral Body Fusion Surgery

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy and safety of Spine fusion system manufactured in China is no inferior than imported product.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, comparative, non-inferiority study comparing the change of Japanese Orthopaedic Association Score from baseline at postoperative 24 weeks for patients implanted with local made Spine Fusion System versus imported products.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of Japanese Orthopaedic Association score

    Questionnaire

    Measured: Preoperation and 24week post operation

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Improvement rate of Japanese Orthopaedic Association score

    Questionnaire

    Measured: 7day, 12week, and 24week post operation

  2. Fixation stability

    Fixation stability should be measured based on translational motion and angular motion which is demonstrated on X-Ray examination (A/P lateral, Flexion and extension).

    Measured: 12week, and 24week post operation

  3. Visual Analogue Score of low back and leg pain

    Visual Analogue Scale

    Measured: 7day, 12week, and 24week post operation

  4. Wound healing

    would healing are classified as 3 classes. (Class I, Class II, Class III)

    Measured: 7day, 12week, and 24week post operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Johnson&Johnson Medical Suzhou made Spine Fusion System and Imported EXPEDIUM screws and OPAL cage in people with Disc Degenerative Disease and Spondylolisthesis, run by Johnson & Johnson Medical (Suzhou) Ltd. at 8 sites in China.

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 5 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in China. 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?

Change of Japanese Orthopaedic Association score (time frame: Preoperation and 24week post operation). 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.

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 3 Dec 2015.
