Recruiting studies
- NCT07789288Recruiting
Hard collar use after cervical spine fusion
This study compares recovery outcomes with and without a hard cervical collar after posterior cervical fusion surgery. You may qualify if you have degenerative disk disease and are scheduled for this type of spine surgery.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04041583Recruiting
Cervical spine fusion using spacers to support healing and function
This study looks at how well a specific neck surgery (posterior cervical fusion using added spacers) works for people with long-standing, non-traumatic neck wear-and-tear problems. It will track outcomes using symptoms and imaging to see if the surgery improves function and healing.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04623593Recruiting
Study of cost and value of neck disc surgery
This study looks at how cost-effective (good value for the money) anterior neck disc surgery is for people with nerve or spinal cord symptoms. If you need this type of operation, it may help doctors better choose treatments and plan healthcare resources.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07615491Recruiting
Safety and effectiveness study of spinal implants and bone materials
This study tracks how well spinal implants (Titania systems) and bone-filling materials (BONEGRAFT) work after surgery and whether patients experience any problems. Researchers will follow patients after cervical or lower spine surgery to confirm these devices are safe and effective in real-world use.
IzmirAges 18 years+ - NCT04770571Enrolling by invitation
Study of posterior neck and upper-back spine fixation systems
This trial studies specific surgical hardware used to stabilize the back of the neck and upper back during spine surgery. It may help surgeons compare outcomes for people needing fixation for trauma, instability, failed prior fusion, tumors, or certain degenerative conditions.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05996133RecruitingPhase 4
Neck Numbing Shot vs. Sham for Neck Surgery Pain
This trial tests whether a numbing injection (called a multifidus cervicis plane block) in the neck muscles helps reduce pain after back-of-the-neck fusion surgery. Half the participants will get the real block, the other half a sham (fake) block, to see if it really works.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 40–80 - NCT07425613Recruiting
Neck movement before and after disc surgery
This study looks at how neck movement control changes after a common surgery (ACDF) for a damaged disc. It compares people having surgery with those who have neck pain but are not having surgery, to understand how the neck moves before and after treatment.
LjubljanaAges 18–65 - NCT06000319Enrolling by invitation
NMP fibers for spine fusion surgery
This study tests a new material called NMP fibers used during spine fusion surgery to treat conditions like degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis. The goal is to see how well it works for patients having fusion in the neck or lower back.
Jasper, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06601634Recruiting
Neck pain improvement after cervical spine surgery
This study looks at what factors help predict better neck pain after a specific type of neck surgery called ACDF. If you have a degenerative neck condition and are scheduled for this surgery, the results could help doctors understand what leads to the best pain relief.
Krakow, Lesser Poland VoivodeshipAges 18–65 - NCT06240221Enrolling by invitation
Tracking real-world use of the Saber-C cervical fusion device
This registry tracks how the Saber-C implant works in real-life neck surgeries. It gathers information to help doctors understand outcomes for people like you.
Paducah, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05971329Recruiting
Pilot study of bone graft for cervical disc wear and nerve symptoms
This trial tests a new bone graft product (ZetaFuse™) used during front-of-the-neck surgery to treat “wear and tear” in the cervical (neck) discs causing nerve problems. It may help relieve pain and nerve-related symptoms when other treatments haven’t worked.
Randwick, New South WalesAges 22–75 - NCT06202443Recruiting
Physical therapy timing after neck surgery
This study looks at whether starting physical therapy soon after ACDF neck surgery helps people recover better. It compares early physical therapy to standard care.
Honolulu, HawaiiAges 18–75 - NCT06415136Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two ways to fuse neck bones after prior surgery
This study tests two methods for adding a new fusion to the level next to a previous neck surgery. It compares using a special plate system versus removing the old plate and putting in a new one.
Southfield, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06486038Recruiting
Spinal cord MRI for better neck surgery outcomes
This study uses an MRI of the spinal cord to better understand damage from a narrowed neck canal. It helps doctors improve outcomes for people who are about to have neck surgery.
RozzanoAges 18–80 - NCT06520579Recruiting
Behavioral help before and after neck surgery
This trial tests if a simple behavioral program can help adults prepare for and recover from anterior neck surgery (ACDF). It includes extra support and nutrition tips to improve healing.
New York, New YorkAges 21–99 - NCT05762055Enrolling by invitation
Compare two neck fusion methods for arthritis pain
This study compares two ways of doing neck fusion surgery for people with age-related (degenerative) problems in the cervical spine. It may help surgeons learn which method works best for healing and long-term outcomes.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–99 - NCT04936074Recruiting
Fusion vs no fusion after neck cord decompression
This trial compares two surgery approaches for people with a gradually worsening spinal cord problem in the neck: doing fusion (joining bones together) versus not doing fusion after decompression (making more space for the spinal cord). It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for symptoms and recovery.
UppsalaAges 18 years+ - NCT06485206Recruiting
Hybrid disc replacement and fusion for two-level neck disease
This study tests a combination of a disc replacement (Mobi-C) and a spinal fusion (ACDF) for people with degenerative disc disease at two levels in the neck. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for relieving pain and nerve symptoms.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 22–69 - NCT06591442Enrolling by invitation
Spinal Fusion Recovery in Older Adults
This study is looking at how older adults recover after spinal fusion surgery, a type of back surgery that connects bones in the spine. The goal is to find factors that help people heal faster and feel better afterward.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cervical fusion?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 19 recruiting cervical fusion studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cervical fusion trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cervical fusion trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
