Study of VCFix device for spine fractures
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device called VCFix to treat a single broken vertebra in the mid-to-lower back. It aims to see if the device is safe and effective for relieving pain and restoring spine function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 21 and 85 years old.
- You have one recent broken vertebra in your mid-to-lower back that is less than 6 weeks old.
- Your back pain score is at least 5 out of 10 on a pain scale.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 35.
- You are not pregnant and willing to use birth control during the study.
- You don't have other serious spine problems, infections, or conditions that would interfere with the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
This study compares different treatments for spine fractures caused by minor falls or weak bones. It looks at vertebroplasty (a procedure to stabilize the bone) and bracing with physical therapy to see which helps people recover better.
This study tests a new, less invasive surgery called SAIF against standard spinal fusion for people with painful, unstable spine fractures caused by osteoporosis. The goal is to find out which approach works better and is safer.
This study tests a combination treatment for painful spinal fractures caused by thinning bones (osteoporosis) or tumors. It may help people with one or more recently broken vertebrae in the mid or lower back.
This trial tests a device called Vessel-X to treat broken vertebrae (spine bones) caused by osteoporosis or injury. It aims to see if the device is safe and helps stabilize the spine.
This trial studies specific surgical hardware used to stabilize the back of the neck and upper back during spine surgery. It may help surgeons compare outcomes for people needing fixation for trauma, instability, failed prior fusion, tumors, or certain degenerative conditions.
