Hybrid disc replacement and fusion for two-level neck disease
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a combination of a disc replacement (Mobi-C) and a spinal fusion (ACDF) for people with degenerative disc disease at two levels in the neck. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for relieving pain and nerve symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 22 and 69 years old.
- You have pain, numbness, or weakness in your arm or hand from a neck problem at two disc levels (between the 3rd neck bone and the 1st chest bone).
- You have not had any prior neck surgery at the levels being treated.
- Imaging (like MRI or CT) shows signs of disc disease, such as a herniated disc or loss of disc height.
- Your neck disability score is at least 15 out of 50 (or 30%), and you have tried conservative treatments (like physical therapy or pain meds) for at least 6 weeks without enough relief.

This trial compares two types of artificial disc implants used for certain neck problems. It may help people who have tried non-surgical treatments but still have ongoing nerve symptoms or spinal cord issues from a damaged disc in the neck.
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.
This study looks back at patients who already have a Prodisc C Vivo device in two levels of their neck spine. The goal is to learn how well the surgery works over time.
This trial tests a new combination of a cage and bone graft putty for spinal fusion surgery. It is for people with degenerative disc disease or a herniated disc in the neck or lower back that needs surgery.
This trial studies specific neck (cervical) spine implants used during surgery for degenerative disc disease or neck instability, along with a particular kind of bone grafting and supporting hardware. It may help patients by testing whether these devices and the planned fusion approach work safely and effectively in real-world surgery.
This trial tests whether a new device (CORUS PCSS 3D) can safely and effectively treat neck disease (degenerative disc disease) at two levels in your lower neck. If you have nerve symptoms like pain or weakness that haven't gotten better with other treatments, you may be a candidate.
