Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a long-term follow-up study for more than 3 years to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bioactive glass-ceramic intervertebral spacer (Novomax) in posterior lumbar interbody fusion.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Bioactive Glass-Ceramic Spacer
  • Device: Titanium cage
N/A

Detailed Description

During one-level PLIF, bioactive glass-ceramic intervertebral spacer (Novomax) and titanium cage were inserted in the experimental group and control group, respectively. Bone fusion by simple radiography had angular deformity of less than 3 degrees and a potential of less than 3 mm in flexion extension radiographs, and thin-section CT (<2 mm) was used to determine the combination between the vertebral endplate and the autogenous bone or bioactive glass-ceramic intervertebral spacer (Novomax) in the cage without any gaps or the part connected to bony trabecula as fusion, and both groups will be compared.

The one-level Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion(PLIF) surgery will be carried out with Novomax, which is the bioactive glass ceramic intervertebral spacer.

Device: Bioactive Glass-Ceramic Spacer
Other Names:
  • Novomax
  • Active Comparator: Titanium cage

    The one-level Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion(PLIF) surgery will be carried out with titanium cage.

    Device: Titanium cage

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Bone fusion with radiographs (X-ray) [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of bone fusion between bone substitutes and vertebral endplates with X-ray for 36 months(or more than 36 months) after PLIF surgery.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Bone fusion with 3-dimensional computed tomography(CT) [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of bone fusion between bone substitutes and vertebral endplates with 3-dimensional CT for 36 months(or more than 36 months) after PLIF surgery.

    2. The Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) assessment [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of the Oswestry disability index questionnaire survey for 36 months(or more than 36 months) after PLIF surgery.

    3. The SF(Short Form)-36 questionnaire assessment [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of the SF(Short Form)-36 questionnaire survey for 36 months(or more than 36 months) after PLIF surgery.

    4. VAS for target site [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of target site pain using the visual analogue scale (VAS) for 36 months(or more than 36 months) after PLIF surgery.

    5. 1.Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability [for 36 months after surgery]

      Evaluation of AE
