3D-printed spinal implant for spine tumors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new 3D-printed implant to replace vertebrae removed during surgery for spine tumors. It aims to provide safe and effective support for the spine, potentially improving recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 79 years old
- You have a tumor in the spine (primary or metastatic) that requires removing at least one vertebral body
- The tumor is located between the C3 and L5 vertebrae
- You have a life expectancy of more than 6 months
- You have not had radiation or chemotherapy within the past year
