Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 9 to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of juvenile or adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
  • Male and female subjects greater than 8 years of age with significant growth remaining
  • Risser Stage 0 or 1
  • Subjects should have at least three years of estimated growth remaining based on Risser staging
  • Major thoracic scoliosis with Cobb Angle > 40° and < 70° and Lenke I, II or V curve pattern. Cobb measurements refer to measures taken without a brace. Patients with curves greater than 30 degrees with attempted but failed brace treatment are also potential candidates for the procedure
  • Thoracic kyphosis (T5-T12) < 50°

  • Instrumentation to be applied no more cephalad than T4 and no more caudal than L2 (inclusive)
  • Menses < 4 months
  • Subject must be physically and mentally willing and able to comply with postoperative and routinely scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations
  • Subject assent and parent/legal guardian consent obtained and documented.

Who cannot join

  • Scoliosis curve is less than 30° or more than 70°
  • Thoracic kyphosis is greater than or equal to 50° (T5-T12)
  • The vertebrae to be instrumented is less than 12mm in height (based on the staple size)
  • One of the vertebrae to be instrumented in less than 20.5mm in width (base on smallest screw length)
  • One of the vertebrae to be instrumented is more than 44mm in width (base on longest screw length)
  • Non-idiopathic scoliosis
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Non-ambulatory
  • Subject with clinical diagnosis of osteoporosis, osteopenia, osteomalacia, Paget's disease and metabolic bone disease
  • Prior thoracic surgery
  • Abnormal neurological status at baseline
  • Any condition or therapy that the investigator believes might pose a risk to the participant or make participation in the study not in the participant's best interest

About this study

The goal of the study is to establish the safety and benefit of treatment of juvenile and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with the SCOLI-TETHER (MIScoli) System.

Being tested
Anterior Vertebral Body Tethering

What participants receive

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

  • Anterior Vertebral Body TetheringDevice

    The SCOLI-TETHER (MIScoli) System is intended for anterolateral vertebral body fixation and internal fastening of the convex side of the thoracic curvatures thereby reducing the deformity and preventing the progression of idiopathic scoliosis in growing children/adolescents at high risk for curve progression while preserving motion.

Receives: Device: Anterior Vertebral Body Tethering

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of device- &/or procedure-related SAEs

    Rate of positively adjudicated device or procedure related serious adverse events including subsequent secondary surgical intervention and neurological events from baseline (preoperative) through 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Change in Cobb angle measurement

    The change in Cobb angle measurement from baseline (preoperative) to 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Anterior Vertebral Body Tethering in people with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and Juvenile Idiopathic Scoliosis, run by Spino Modulation Inc. at 1 site in Canada.

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 10 inclusion and 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 2024. 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 Canada. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The Sponsor decided to focus their resources on the clinical data collection for the second generation of the investigational device.). Results are not available in the source record.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of device- &/or procedure-related SAEs (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 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 15 Mar 2024.
