Brief Summary:
OsteoAMP is a novel allograft bone graft substitute (BGS) that has been processed to retain multiple endogenous growth factors for use in spinal fusion. The study is designed to obtain a higher level of clinical evidence for OsteoAMP in spinal fusion procedures and not to garner FDA regulatory approval. This is a prospective, non-randomized, non-controlled, multi-center study of OsteoAMP in instrumented, posterolateral lumbar fusion (PLF) in patients with degenerative disc disease, degenerative spondylolisthesis (up to grade 1), and/or mild degenerative scoliosis, up to 25 degree curvature. Patients that are scheduled to undergo instrumented, posterolateral spinal fusion surgery as part of their medical treatment and comply with the study eligibility criteria will be given the opportunity to consent and be entered into the study.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Spondylolisthesis Scoliosis Intervertebral Disc Disease Other: OsteoAMP

Detailed Description:

The objective of this clinical study are: to evaluate the long term efficacy of OsteoAMP in patients requiring 1 to 2 adjacent level, instrumented posterolateral spinal fusion procedure of the lumbar or lumbosacral spine, and to evaluate OsteoAMP in spinal fusion procedures based on fusion results, adverse event rates, and pain and health scores.

Patients that are scheduled to undergo instrumented, posterolateral spinal fusion (PLF) surgery as part of their medical treatment and comply with the study eligibility criteria will be recruited and entered into the study. Subjects recruited into the study will receive OsteoAMP as part of an instrumented PLF surgical procedure. The surgery may also include nerve root decompressions through laminectomies and foraminotomies. As is consistent with the current standard of care.

The study involves consecutive patients suffering from lower back and leg pain due to degenerative disc disease (DDD), degenerative spondylolisthesis (up to grade 1), and/or mild degenerative scoliosis that are candidates for an instrumented PLF with pedicle screws in 1 or 2 motion segments of the lumbar or lumbosacral spine. Patients will require a total bone graft volume of at least 10cc per side per level in the PLF procedure, including OsteoAMP granules hydrated with bone marrow aspirate (BMA) and local autogenous bone.

Subjects will be followed for 24 months post-surgery.

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
OsteoAMP treatment group
The OsteoAMP treatment group contains patients randomized to receive their own bone (retrieved from the surgical site) augmented with the OsteoAMP growth factor to assist with posterolateral arthrodesis at 1 or 2 adjacent levels between L1-S1.
Other: OsteoAMP
OsteoAMP in posterolateral fusion procedure of the lumbosacral spine




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Posterolateral fusion evaluation as determined by physician's assessment [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]

    Radiographic evidence of fusion assessed by flexion-extension and CT radiograph or computed tomography (CT) scans.

    • Flexion extension radiographs timeframe: Pre-op, 6 month, 12 month, 24 months
    • CT timeframe: 12 month, 24 month. NOTE: If subject determined to be fused at 12 months, 24 month x-rays and CT not required

  2. Improvement form baseline low back pain [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Improvement form baseline in low back pain and function as measured by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Improvements in pain [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) improvement from baseline to 24 month follow up assessed at timeframes: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

  2. Improvements in function [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Short Form 36 (SF-36) score improvement compared to baseline at 24 months assessed at timeframes: Pre-Op, 6 weeks, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

  3. Posterolateral fusion as determined by independently scored and adjudicated assessment [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Radiographic evidence of fusion assessed by flexion-extension and CT at 12 months and 24 months

  4. Improvements in Other Health-Related Quality of Life measures [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Health-Related Quality of Life measures; work status, use of medication and perception of treatment effectiveness at Weeks 6 Post- Surgery, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Maintenance or improvement from baseline in neurological status with no new permanent deficits [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Neurological exam

  2. Absence of serious product-related adverse events [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Serious product-related adverse events

  3. Freedom from subsequent product-related surgical interventions [ Time Frame: 24 month follow up ]
    Interventions include revision, removal, re-operation, and supplemental fixation at the affected level(s)
