Two-Level Spinal Fusion for Disc Degeneration or Deformity: MDT-0123 compared with Autologous Bone Graft
This study tests MDT-0123 against the patient’s own bone graft to see which helps two-level spine fusion better in people with disc degeneration or spinal deformity.
-
Comparing two bioactive bone substitutes to help spinal fusion after anterior lumbar surgery
This trial tests two osteoinductive bioactive bone substitutes to see which better helps adults with degenerative lumbar disc disease achieve spinal fusion after anterior lumbar interbody surgery.
-
Evaluating a new treatment for painful disc degeneration
This study is testing a new non-surgical treatment for people with painful disc degeneration to see if it can help relieve their back pain when other treatments haven't worked.
-
Preoperative IV dexamethasone to reduce pain after minimally invasive lumbar fusion (MIS-TLIF)
This trial will test whether a single intravenous dose of dexamethasone given before MIS-TLIF reduces postoperative back pain and opioid use in people aged 50–80 having 1–2 level lumbar fusion.
-
Using ZetaFuse Bone Graft to treat cervical disc disease
This study is testing if a new bone graft called ZetaFuse can help people with neck problems feel better and improve their nerve function after surgery.
