Bone putty versus own bone for spinal fusion in scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests a special putty that helps bones grow together compared to using your own bone (autograft) during spinal fusion surgery. The putty may help avoid taking bone from another part of your body, reducing pain and recovery time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a spine condition called adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, which is a sideways curve that starts in the teenage years.
- You are scheduled to have spinal fusion surgery, where the surgeon joins some of the back bones to straighten the spine.
- The surgery includes your lower back (lumbar area).

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 compares two types of bone graft materials (Magnetos Putty and GlassBone Putty) used in lower back fusion surgery for adults with degenerative disc disease. The goal is to see which material works better for helping the bones fuse together, which may reduce pain and improve function.
This study tests a new bone graft material (MagnetOs) against using your own bone for hindfoot or ankle fusion surgery. The goal is to see if the new material works just as well for helping bones heal together.
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.
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 trial tests a new bone putty used to fill the small gap created during realignment surgery for knee osteoarthritis. It aims to see if the putty helps the bone heal better and reduces pain.
