Ostene in planned open back spine surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests an experimental bone healing material, Ostene, during spine surgery. It may help reduce scar tissue and improve fusion. You are likely eligible if you are having planned open back surgery for nerve decompression and fusion.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 88 years old.
- You are having elective (non-emergency) spine surgery on your mid to lower back. This will involve removing pressure from nerves and fusing bones together.
- The surgery will be done through an open incision in the middle of your back (posterior approach).
- You are not having surgery for a broken bone, tumor, or infection in your spine.
- Your surgery is not an emergency, and is not done through the front, side, or with small incisions.

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 compares a ready-to-use bone putty to standard bone graft materials (with or without your own bone) during back fusion surgery for unstable lower back problems. It looks at whether the putty works as well or better to help the bones fuse and heal.
This trial studies whether OssiMend bone graft helps heal a lumbar spine fusion for people whose disc disease has not improved with non-surgical care. It may be an option if you need back surgery due to specific spine wear-and-tear changes.
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.
This trial tests Osteogenon, a medication that may help bones heal better after fractures or orthopedic surgery. It aims to see if the drug improves bone union and recovery.
This study observes how a biological implant called OsteoPearl helps people recover from recent spine fractures in the mid or lower back. Researchers will track your pain relief and ability to function over time after a minimally invasive procedure to stabilize the fracture.
