About this study

Determining the treatment strategy for patients with degenerative diseases of the spine is extremely difficult, without an accurate understanding of the nature of stress distribution in the vertebral-motor segments of the spine, as well as biomechanical changes that are associated with degenerative diseases of the spine. In this clinical study, we want to compare the use of unilateral and bilateral transpedicular fixation for treating the patients with degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine.

Read the detailed description

It is planned to use posterior stabilization without interbody fusion. In the postoperative period, all the patients receive antibacterial and analgesic therapy. The early postoperative period is spent in a hospital. Repeated appearances for control examinations (3, 6, 12 months) are provided for physical examination (EQ-5D, Oswestry Disability Index) and performing radiographs or computed tomography (CT) of the spine. All patients undergo a standard rehabilitation course.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Unilateral Pedicle Screw FixationProcedure or surgery

    Pedicle screws are installed unilaterally on the one side of the vertebrae and fixed with rod

  • Bilateral Pedicle Screw FixationProcedure or surgery

    Pedicle screws are installed bilaterally on the both sides of the vertebrae and fixed with rods

Study groups in NCT04415814
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1 (Unilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation)ExperimentalPatients will undergo stabilizing surgery on the lumbar spine for degenerative diseases of the spine. Pedicular screws will be installed unilaterally, which means on one side of the spinous processes. The system will be fixed with standard rod and blockers.
Receives: Procedure: Unilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation
Group 2 (Bilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation)Active comparatorPatients will undergo stabilizing surgery on the lumbar spine for degenerative diseases of the spine. Pedicular screws will be installed bilaterally, which means on the both sides of the spinous processes. The system will be fixed with standard rods and blockers.
Receives: Procedure: Bilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. fusion rate of the operated spine segment

    Control CT/Radiography examination

    Measured: in 3 months after surgery

  2. fusion rate of the operated spine segment

    Control CT/Radiography examination

    Measured: in 6 months after surgery

  3. fusion rate of the operated spine segment

    Control CT/Radiography examination

    Measured: in 12 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Unilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation and Bilateral Pedicle Screw Fixation in people with Fusion of Spine, run by I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University at 1 site in Russia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Russia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Vadim Cherepanov, MD, PhD (+79166548850, cvg_cherepanov@mail.ru), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

fusion rate of the operated spine segment (time frame: in 3 months after surgery). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Sep 2020.
