Anterior Bridging Cage With Bone Substitute Versus Localized Autobone in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Arthrodesis

November 8, 2021 updated by: Kwang Sup Song, Zenoss Co, Ltd

Prospective, Observational Study of Anterior Bridging Cage Augmented With Bone Substitute Versus Localized Autobone in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Arthrodesis

The purpose of this study is to evaluation for the pattern of bone bridging of patients who undergo transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis, the investigators hypothesize that auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite (OSTEON 2, Genoss) is not inferior to auto local bone only. In addition, the investigators will analyze anterior new bone bridging pattern between anterior bridging cage newly developed and grafted bone in anterior disc space.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A single center, observational, single arm study to evaluate the efficacy of auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite using interbody fusion assessment on multi-axial CT scan. Its active comparator is auto local bone.

Anterior bridging bone between anterior grafted bone and inserted cage will be assessed by using newly developed anterior bridging cage as well as interbody bone bridging between two vertebral bodies on multi-axial reconstructed CT scan.

The patients undergoes arthrodesis surgery will have two cages, one augmented with auto local bone will be located at left side of disc space and the other cage augmented with auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite at right side of disc space.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Left cage- auto bone
At the operated segment, left cage was filled with auto bone only. We evaluated bone bridging between inside and outside the cage in transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis.
Anterior bridging cages augmented with auto bone plus β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite in right side of disc space and anterior bridging cages augmented with auto bone in left side of disc space in transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis.
Other Names:
  • β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite (OSTEON 2, Genoss)
  • Auto-local bone
Experimental: Right cage- auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite
At the operated segment, right cage was filled with auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite. We evaluated bone bridging between inside and outside the cage in transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis.
Anterior bridging cages augmented with auto bone plus β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite in right side of disc space and anterior bridging cages augmented with auto bone in left side of disc space in transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis.
Other Names:
  • β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite (OSTEON 2, Genoss)
  • Auto-local bone

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
InCBB of Both Cages
Time Frame: 12 month postoperatively
We used the concept of InCBB (intra-cage bridging bone) to evaluate the fusion status. InCBB was defined as the bridging bone between the upper and lower vertebrae through the void of the cage(s) and divided into right (Rt.) and left (Lt.) InCBB according to the cage position. We graded bridging scores from 0 to 2 based on the degree of completion of the bridging bone in InCBBs (grade 0: no bridging at the superior and inferior endplates; grade 1: incomplete bridging; bridging at the superior or inferior endplate, but with a clear radiolucent line; grade 2: complete bridging).
12 month postoperatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
ABB (Anterior Bone Bridging) Between Cage and Anterior Grafted Bone
Time Frame: 12 month postoperatively
We defined ABB as the bridging bone between the extra-cage grafted bone and intra-cage grafted bone through the holes in each cage. Since the cages used in this study each have 4 anterior holes, there can be a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 8 ABBs in a patient.
12 month postoperatively

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
ODI Change (Preoperative ODI Score - Postoperative 1 Year ODI Score)
Time Frame: postoperative 1 year

The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is an index used by clinicians and researchers to quantify disability for low back pain.

The self-completed questionnaire contains ten topics concerning intensity of pain, lifting, ability to care for oneself, ability to walk, ability to sit, sexual function, ability to stand, social life, sleep quality, and ability to travel. Each topic category is followed by 6 statements describing different potential scenarios in the patient's life relating to the topic. The patient then checks the statement which most closely resembles their situation. Each question is scored on a scale of 0-5 with the first statement being zero and indicating the least amount of disability and the last statement is scored 5 indicating most severe disability. The scores for all questions answered are summed, then multiplied by two to obtain the index (range 0 to 100). Zero is equated with no disability and 100 is the maximum disability possible.
