Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

21 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient is skeletally mature (21-85 years old).
  • Patient has degenerative spondylolisthesis (Grade 1-3) with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, kyphosis, and/or failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis) at index level.
  • Capable and willing to comply with the requirements unique to the study, adhere to the post-operative treatment and management program, and return for required follow-up examinations.
  • Surgeon has determined that DSS™ System is an appropriate treatment for the patient without regard to the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The need for interbody cages, allograft, or any other assistance during surgery. Device is only to be used with autograft per FDA approved indications.
  • Any medical, mental or surgical condition precluding the potential benefit of spinal surgery or surgery in general.
  • Acute or chronic systemic, spinal or localized infections.

  • Grade 4 degenerative spondylolisthesis (>75% slip).
  • Significant osteopenia A screening questionnaire for osteopenia, SCORE (Simple Calculated Osteoporosis Risk Estimation), will be used to screen patients who require a DEXA bone mineral density measurement. If DEXA is required*, exclusion will be defined as a DEXA bone density measured T score of ≤ -1.0 (The World Health Organization definition of osteopenia).
  • Soft tissue deficit not allowing wound closure.
  • Congenital abnormalities, tumors or other conditions that would prevent secure component fixation that has the potential to decrease the useful life of the device.
  • Inadequate pedicles or vertebral body geometry of the thoracic, lumbar and sacral vertebrae.
  • Bony lumbar spinal stenosis not related to the primary degenerative spondylolisthesis indication.
  • Pars defect.
  • Clinically compromised vertebral bodies at affected level due to current or past trauma.
  • Prisoner or ward of the state.
  • Currently in litigation regarding a spinal condition.
  • Known allergy to titanium, titanium alloys, CoCrMo, polyethylene or MR contrast agents.
  • Is currently involved in a study of another investigational product for similar purpose.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Who Have an Incidence of Serious or Device Related Adverse Events Due to Device or Procedure.
Time Frame: 6 months
The safety endpoint is defined as the incidence of serious or device related adverse events attributable to the device or procedure. Reoperations, revisions or removals of the Dynamic Stabilization System (DSS) System implant will be evaluated.
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Measurement of Lower Back Pain as Assessed by Visual Analog Scale
Time Frame: 6 months
Lower back pain as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on the scale from 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst imaginable pain)
6 months
Measurement of Right Leg Pain as Assessed by Visual Analog Scale
Time Frame: 6 months
Right leg pain as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on the scale from 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst imaginable pain)
6 months
Measurement of Left Leg Pain as Assessed by Visual Analog Scale
Time Frame: 6 months
Left leg pain as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on the scale from 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst imaginable pain)
6 months
Number of Participants With Improved Health as Measured by the EuroQOL Health Related Qualify of Life- 5 Dimensions-3 Level (EQ-5D-3L) Health Questionnaire Compared to Baseline.
Time Frame: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months
The EQ-5D-3L is a standardized instrument used as a measure of health outcomes. It contains questions in 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) and provides a simple descriptive profile and single index for health status preference. In addition, there is a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The VAS is the participant's rating of their health on a scale of 0 "worst imaginable health state" to 100 "best imaginable health state".
Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months
Assessment of Back Pain Using the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index (ODI).
Time Frame: 6 months
ODI is a questionnaire that provides information on back and the affects on managing every day life by diving questions into 10 sections. The total possible score for each section is 0-5. The scores are then converted into percentages ranging from 0% (minimal disability) to 100% (maximum possible disability).
