Compare fusion results after two spine surgeries with added biologics
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares two types of spine surgery (ALIF or XLIF) for one spinal level, and tests how well the bones fuse when a specific bone-forming product is used. It also looks at how patients feel and function after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need planned surgery for one spinal level: ALIF at L5/S1 or XLIF at L4/5 (with or without extra screw support).
- Your age must be 18 to 70 years.
- You must speak enough German to complete study questionnaires and understand the study.
- You must be able and willing to attend follow-up visits and answer questionnaires at set times.
- You should not currently smoke (and you must be willing not to smoke).

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
This trial studies how well specific lumbar (lower back) implant “cages” help fuse vertebrae in people with degenerative disc disease, spinal slippage, narrowing, curvature, or forward-bending deformity. It may help by testing an approach to improve stability and reduce symptoms after surgery.
This trial compares two bone-graft materials to help bones heal after back fusion surgery using a rod/screw system. It may help people who have ongoing back or leg pain despite at least 3 months of non-surgical treatments.
This study tests a new bone graft material called ProteiOS during lumbar spine fusion surgery to help bones heal together and reduce pain. It may help people with degenerative spine disease who have not improved with other treatments.
This trial looks at how well bone fuses after spinal surgery using a special bone graft material called Fibergraft. It may help people who had certain types of lower back surgery for conditions like nerve pinching or spine slippage.
This study tests a new bone graft material (MagnetOs Flex Matrix) compared to a standard bone graft for spinal fusion surgery. It may be an option if you have ongoing back or leg pain that hasn't improved with other treatments and you need a one-time fusion of up to 4 levels in your lower back.
