CETIS-I (CEra Traction Improves Spine-I)

February 3, 2026 updated by: Ceragem Clinical Inc.

A Single-center, Open-label, Randomized, Parallel-group, Standard Therapy Controlled, Equivalence Clinical Trials to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Structural Changes in the Spine to Determine the Traction Effect of an Investigational Device, Ceragem Master V6 (CGM MB-1701) Use in Patients With Lumber Disc Herniation & Degenerative Spinal Stenosis

In this clinical trial, equivalence is evaluated by exploratory comparison of changes in X-Ray lesions with test group (Cerazem Master V6) and control group (physical therapy) in patients with intervertebral disc herniation and degenerative stenosis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The efficacy and safety evaluation are conducted before and after the application of the test device. The investigator shall apply an investigational device once when visiting a suitable subject for one day (Arm;Traction treatment) or standard physical therapy including temperature application and traction(Arm;Physical Therapy)
