Recruiting studies
- NCT05701046Recruiting
Front vs back surgery for a slipped lower-back vertebra
This trial compares two surgical approaches—operating from the front/side versus from the back—for a specific type of lower-back slip called lumbar isthmic spondylolisthesis. You may be eligible if you need surgery at a single level and have not had prior spine surgery, and if your back condition matches their exact limits.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07001969Enrolling by invitation
Percutaneous facet spine fixation for instability
This study tests a minimally invasive procedure to fix unstable vertebrae in the neck or lower back using a small incision. It may help people with spinal instability causing nerve symptoms or pressure on the spinal cord.
Cairo, ShoroukAges Any age - NCT04631133Recruiting
Study of outcomes after surgery using the LISA implant
This study follows adults who get back surgery using the LISA implant to see how well they do afterward and how outcomes change over time. It focuses on people whose long-term, non-surgical care did not relieve low-back pain from specific age-related disc changes.
SilkeborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06704906Recruiting
Spine fusion surgery with a new bone graft material
This study tests a new bone graft material (Fibergraft BG Putty) used with a special screw system (Viper Prime) during spine fusion surgery. It is for adults with lower back problems who need 1 to 3 vertebrae fused, and who are not smokers or have a very low bone density.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04407338Recruiting
B-DYN device versus standard fusion for lumbar stenosis
This trial compares a specific spinal fusion approach (B-DYN) with the standard fusion surgery for people with lumbar spinal stenosis. It aims to improve function after surgery and check whether the newer approach is well tolerated.
BordeauxAges 40 years+ - NCT06650046Recruiting
Topping-off technique for lower back arthritis
This trial tests a 'topping-off' surgical technique for people with arthritis and disc problems in the lower back. If you have tried 3 months of non-surgical treatments without success, this surgery may be an option to relieve pain and improve function.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT07587775Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Osteoporosis Medication Effects on Spine Bone Quality
This study tests how a bone-strengthening medication called Abaloparatide affects the quality of bones in your lower spine. Researchers will use imaging scans to see if the medication helps improve bone strength in people with osteoporosis who also have spine wear-and-tear.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 50 years+ - NCT05981222Enrolling by invitation
Osteo Match vs. PEEK cages for spinal fusion in osteoporosis
This study compares two types of cages used in spinal fusion surgery for people with osteoporosis. It aims to see if one type leads to better bone healing and stability.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50 years+ - NCT06011551Recruiting
Gel injection for painful lumbar discs
This trial tests a gel (HYDRAFIL-D) injected into painful discs in your lower back to see if it relieves pain. It's for people whose back pain hasn't improved with other treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 22–85 - NCT06265038Recruiting
Study of a new implant for lower back fusion surgery
This study tests a new implant called ReSpace TiCell Cage for TLIF surgery, which is a procedure to stabilize the lower back by fusing two vertebrae. It may be a good option if you have a degenerative spine condition causing pain or instability and are a candidate for this type of surgery.
Budapest, Pest CountyAges 18–80 - NCT06686017Enrolling by invitation
New bone graft for lower back fusion surgery
This trial studies a new bone graft material called Virtuos for use in lower back spinal fusion surgery. It may help patients needing a one or two-level lumbar fusion by providing a safe and effective option for bone healing.
South Bend, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05963815Recruiting
Spine surgery follow-up using online patient-reported questionnaires
This study looks at recovery after planned (elective) surgery for common lower-back (“lumbar”) spine problems like slipped discs, disc bulges, and narrowing of the spinal canal. You may be asked to complete online questionnaires, and the study uses your answers to understand symptoms and outcomes after surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–80 - NCT06709391Recruiting
Spinal fusion vs. no surgery for chronic low back pain
This trial tests whether a spinal fusion surgery is better than staying with non-surgical treatments for people with long-term, severe low back pain from worn-out discs in the lower spine. It aims to find out which approach offers better pain relief and quality of life.
GothenburgAges 25–65 - NCT03649490Enrolling by invitation
Testing new spinal implant materials for XLIF fusion
This study compares different advanced materials used in a specific spinal fusion surgery (XLIF). It aims to see which implant material helps the bone fuse well and safely over time.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 18–80 - NCT06778447Recruiting
Disc injection for chronic low back pain
This study tests whether injecting a special disc material (nucleus pulposus allograft) into the damaged discs of your lower back can safely reduce pain and improve function. It's for people with long-term, moderate to severe low back pain from disc disease that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
Napa, CaliforniaAges 22–85 - 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+ - NCT05997121Recruiting
Testing a new spinal implant for degenerative disc disease
This trial studies a new spinal implant system (Hexanium TLIF) for people with degenerative disc disease. It aims to see if the implant is safe and works well to help with back pain and stability.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT05508360Recruiting
Testing an artificial spacer implant for one-level low back pain
This study tests whether inserting a small artificial implant into a single painful disc can reduce long-term low back pain and disability. It’s for people who tried non-surgical treatments for at least 6 months but still have significant symptoms from degenerative disc disease.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 42 recruiting degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis 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 degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis 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 degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis 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.
