About this study

Official title: A Single Surgeon Retrospective Cohort Study of Clinical and Radiological Outcomes Among Patients Treated With Lumbar Interbody Fusion Augmented With Prosidyan Fibergraft® Putty for Degenerative Spinal Disease

A single center study of clinical and radiological outcomes in a retrospective cohort of patients treated with Lumbar Interbody Fusion augmented with Prosidyan Fibergraft for 1 or 2 level degenerative spinal disease by a single surgeon.

Study Design: Retrospective chart review with prospective data collection.

Read the detailed description

Background and Rationale: Degenerative pathologies of the lumbar spine including degenerative disc disease, spondylosis and spondylolisthesis are the leading indications for lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) among low back pain patients. Prosidyan's Fibergraft is a bioactive synthetic bone graft substitute that is ultraporous and made from bioactive glass fibers. The proposed study will be an analysis of clinical outcomes among patients who underwent lumbar interbody fusion augmented with Prosidyan Fibergraft by a single surgeon.

Objective(s):

PRIMARY: To assess the fusion rate in this retrospective cohort at 12 months post-operatively.

SECONDARY:

  • To report and analyze trends (if any) among diagnosis, number of levels, approach (TLIF, LIF or ALIF) and fusion status.
  • To assess pain and functional health changes pre to post-operatively. SAFTEY: To report the rate of surgical adverse events and subsequent surgeries at the operative level.

Study design: Retrospective chart review with prospective data collection.

Procedures: Patients will be screened by retrospective chart review. Eligible patients will be contacted and asked to participate. Consenting patients will answer questionnaires and undergo a CT lumbar scan.

Study Product / Intervention: The device under investigation is Prosidyan Fibergraft. However, since study subjects are retrospectively enrolled, they will have received the device before entering the study.

Being tested
Computed Tomography (CT) Scan of the Lumbar Spine
Medical subject headings
Intervertebral Disc Degeneration, Spinal Stenosis

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Computed Tomography (CT) Scan of the Lumbar SpineRadiation

    Patients in the cohort who have not received a 12 month post-op CT scan will be asked to enroll in the study and undergo a CT of the lumbar spine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fusion Rate

    The primary outcome for this study will be the overall fusion rate in the retrospective cohort. Fusion will be assessed from a Lumbar CT scan. The criteria used to assess fusion status will be according to the scale developed by Brantigan, Steffee, and Fraser (BSF criteria).

    Measured: 12 months post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean change in Visual Analog (VAS) Pain scale

    Mean change in low back pain as measured by a 100 mm Visual Analog Scale where 0 indicates no pain and 100 indicates the greatest pain.

    Measured: Pre-operatively to 12 months post-operatively

  2. Mean change in Oswestry Disability Index (Function) score

    Mean change in low back functional status as measured by the Oswestry Disability Index where a score of 0 indicates no disability and a score of 100 represents maximum disability

    Measured: Pre-operatively to 12 months post-operatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Degenerative Disc Disease and Degenerative Spondylolisthesis, run by Bone and Joint Clinic of Baton Rouge 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 5 inclusion and 0 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 Jan 2021. 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?

Fusion Rate (time frame: 12 months post-operatively). 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 29 Jan 2021.
