About this study

Official title: Efficacy Study Using Solum IV, Bone Marrow Concentrate With General Fluid Concentrate in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of using Solum IV and bone marrow concentrate with general fluid concentrate in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single-center clinical study. Ten patients will be enrolled and undergo an TLIF with a spinal fixation system and receive Solum IV (Celling Biosciences) and patient's BMC with GFC.

The bone marrow aspirate (BMA) will be taken from the iliac crest of the enrolled subjects. The BMA will be transferred to a processor that will use ART BMC Plus (Celling Biosciences, Austin, TX) platform technology to obtain the BMC preparation. The plasma component that remains as a by-product of generating the BMC will then be concentrated by the ART BMC Plus device to create a concentrated plasma/general fluid concentrate (GFC). The enrolled subjects' BMC and GFC will be provided to the principle investigator who will combine the two together with Solum IV using the Graft Delivery Kit (Celling Biosciences) and perform a TLIF procedure. (See Appendix B for Graft Delivery Kit). All subjects will be assigned to receive lumbar interbody fusion via a TLIF approach with Solum IV bone graft and BMC with GFC in the interbody space of a TLIF using cynch bullet cage (@SpineSmith) and Stryker based pedicle screw system (Xia 3 system).

All study subjects will be assessed for fusion rate, complication rates and subject-reported outcomes at designated intervals up to 12 months after surgery. X-rays (anterior-posterior, lateral, flexion-extension) will be taken at pre-operatively, 3, 6, and 12 months post-treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Solum IV, Bone Marrow Concentrate with general fluid concentrate (GFC) in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion in people with Degenerative Disc Disease and Isthmic-lytic Spondylolisthesis, run by Seton Healthcare Family 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 11 inclusion and 28 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2018. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Radiological assessment : Fusion Status (time frame: 3 months post-treatment). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03223701, which also lists 5 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 Apr 2018.
