Light treatment to stabilize pelvic fractures and reduce pain
Part of Cancer, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies a device called IlluminOss that uses light to help stabilize pelvic fractures and treat pain. It is for people whose pelvic fracture is caused by cancer-related bone damage or frailty, and who already have the IlluminOss pelvic implant planned as part of standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 21 or older, with fully grown bones (not growing/teenage growth plates)
- Your care team already plans to use the FDA-approved IlluminOss pelvic implant
- Your pelvic fracture pain is from an upcoming or current pelvic fracture that is not badly broken (non-displaced or minimally displaced), due to cancer spread, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, radiation bone injury, or age-related bone weakness
- Your pain is at least 30 out of 100 on a pain scale
- You must be able to cooperate and follow instructions
- You cannot be in prison, and your oncology team must consider you fit for surgery
