Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of using the PRESTIGE-LP device in the treatment of patients with symptomatic degenerative disc disease at two adjacent levels of the cervical spine, with overall success being the primary endpoint of the clinical trial. The primary objective is to show non-inferiority of the investigational device to the control treatment. If non-inferiority is established, superiority will also be examined as the secondary objective.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Rate of Overall Success [24 Months]

      Rate of overall success is reported as the percentage of participants who met all of the following criteria: Postoperative Neck Disability Index (NDI) score improvement of at least a 15-point increase from preoperative; Maintenance or improvement in neurological status; No serious adverse event classified as implant associated or implant/surgical procedure associated; and No additional surgical procedure classified as a "failure."

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Success Rate of Neck Disability Index [24 months]

      Success rate of Neck Disability Index is reported as the percentage of participants whose neck disability index score met the following criterion: Pre-treatment Score - Post-treatment Score ≥ 15.

    2. Success Rate of Neurological Status [24 months]

      Success rate of neurological status is reported as the percentage of participants who met neurological success defined as maintenance or improvement in all sections (motor, sensory, and reflexes) for the time period evaluated. In order for a section to be considered a success, each element in the section must either remain the same or improve from the time of the preoperative evaluation to the time period evaluated.

    3. Neck Pain Success Rate [24 months]

      Numerical rating scales were used to evaluate pain intensity and frequency. The pain score (0 min, 20 max) was derived by adding the numerical rating scores from the pain intensity (0-10, with a score of 0 representing "no pain" and a score of 10 representing "pain as bad as it could be.") and frequency scales (0-10, with a score of 0 being "pain none of the time" and a score of 10 being "pain all of the time"). Neck pain success rate is reported as the percentage of participants whose neck pain improvement met the following criterion: Preoperative Score - Postoperative Score > 0.

    4. Arm Pain Success Rate [24 months]

      Numerical rating scales were used to evaluate pain intensity and frequency. The pain score (0 min, 20 max) was derived by adding the numerical rating scores from the pain intensity (0-10, with a score of 0 representing "no pain" and a score of 10 representing "pain as bad as it could be.") and frequency scales (0-10, with a score of 0 being "pain none of the time" and a score of 10 being "pain all of the time"). Arm pain success rate is reported as the percentage of participants whose arm pain improvement met the following criterion: Preoperative Score - Postoperative Score > 0.

    5. Success Rate of SF-36 PCS [24 months]

      Success rate of SF-36 Health Survey include two components: the success rate of a physical component summary (PCS) and the success rate of a mental component summary (MCS). The success of SF-36 PCS was defined as: Post Score - Pre Score >= 0. The Success rate of SF-36 PCS is reported as the percentage of the participants who were classified as a success for SF-36 PCS.

    6. Success Rate of SF-36 MCS [24 months]

      Success rate of SF-36 Health Survey include two components: the success rate of a physical component summary (PCS) and the success rate of a mental component summary (MCS). The success of SF-36 MCS were defined as: Post Score - Pre Score >= 0. The Success rate of SF-36 MCS is reported as the percentage of the participants who were classified as a success for SF-36 MCS.

    7. Rate of Disc Height Success [24 months]

      Disc height was assessed by determining the Functional Spinal Unit (FSU) height. The rate of disc height success is reported as the percentage of participants whose disc height for each level based on either the anterior or posterior measurements met the following criterion: Postoperative Height - 6 Week Postoperative Height >= -2mm

    8. Gait Success Rate [24 months]

      Patient's gait was assessed by using Nurick's classification, and indicated either as normal or graded on a scale of 0 to 5. Success was defined as maintenance or improvement in the postoperative status as compared to the preoperative condition: Preoperative Score - Postoperative Score >= 0. The gait success rate is reported as the percentage of participants who had gait success.

    9. Operative Time [Time of operation, an average of 1.7-2.1hrs]

      Operative time was recorded from skin incision to wound closure.

    10. Blood Loss [During the time of operation, an average of 1.7-2.1 hrs]

    11. Hospital Stay [From admission to discharge, an average of 1.0-1.5 day]

    12. Rate of Secondary Surgery at Index Level [24 months]

      Secondary surgical procedures at the index level included revisions, removals, supplemental fixations and reoperations. Rate of secondary surgery at index level is reported as percentage of subjects who had secondary surgeries at index level.

    13. Change of Neck Disability Index Score From Baseline [Baseline and 24 months post-operation]

      The self-administered Neck Disability Index (NDI) Questionnaire was used to assess patient neck pain and ability to function. The NDI scale ranges from 0-100. The best score is 0 (no disability) and worst is 100 (maximum disability). Change of NDI was defined as NDI at 24 month minus NDI at baseline.

    14. Change of Neck Pain Score From Baseline [Baseline and 24 months post-operation]

      Numerical rating scales were used to evaluate neck pain intensity and frequency. Subjects rated their neck pain intensity on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 representing "no pain" and a score of 10 representing "pain as bad as it could be." Similarly, subjects recorded their neck pain frequency on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 being "pain none of the time" and a score of 10 being "pain all of the time." The total neck pain score (0 to 20) was the addition of pain intensity and frequency scores. Change of neck pain score was defined as neck pain score at 24 months minus neck pain score at baseline.

    15. Change of Arm Pain Score From Baseline [Baseline and 24 months post-operation]

      Numerical rating scales were also used to evaluate arm pain intensity and frequency. Subjects rated their arm pain intensity on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 representing "no pain" and a score of 10 representing "pain as bad as it could be." Similarly, subjects recorded their arm pain frequency on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 being "pain none of the time" and a score of 10 being "pain all of the time." The total arm pain score (0 to 20) was the addition of pain intensity and frequency scores. Change of arm pain score was defined as arm pain score at 24 months minus arm pain score at baseline.

    16. Change of General Health Status -- SF-36 PCS From Baseline [Baseline and 24 months post-operation]

      The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to assess general health status. The SF-36 results were summarized into two components, a physical component summary (PCS) and a mental component summary (MCS). The score for PCS was between 0 and 100, with higher scores denoting better quality of life. Change of SF-36 PCS score was defined as PCS score at 24 months minus PCS score at baseline.

    17. Change of General Health Status -- SF-36 MCS From Baseline [Baseline and 24 months post-operation]

      The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to assess general health status. The SF-36 results were summarized into two components, a physical component summary (PCS) and a mental component summary (MCS). The score for MCS was between 0 and 100, with higher scores denoting better quality of life. Change of SF-36 MCS score was defined as MCS score at 24 months minus MCS score at baseline.

    Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection PRESTIGE LP Device, ATLANTIS Cervical Plate System
    Comments The null hypothesis H0: p1 + d ≤ p0, and the alternative hypothesis is Ha: p1 + d > p0 where P0 and P1 are the overall success rates in the control group and the investigational group respectively, and d is the non-inferiority margin. The analyses used Bayesian methodology. Should the posterior probability P(p1 - p0 > -d | data) be at least 0.95, then the null non-inferiority hypothesis will be rejected, and non-inferiority of the investigational device to the control will be claimed.

    Title Change of Neck Pain Score From Baseline
    Description Numerical rating scales were used to evaluate neck pain intensity and frequency. Subjects rated their neck pain intensity on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 representing "no pain" and a score of 10 representing "pain as bad as it could be." Similarly, subjects recorded their neck pain frequency on a scale from 0-10, with a score of 0 being "pain none of the time" and a score of 10 being "pain all of the time." The total neck pain score (0 to 20) was the addition of pain intensity and frequency scores. Change of neck pain score was defined as neck pain score at 24 months minus neck pain score at baseline.
