Adaptix RCT Evaluating Adaptix™ Versus PEEK Cages
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess and compare radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who are to undergo combined interbody/posterolateral lumbar fusion procedures, supplemented with pedicle screw instrumentation, using one of the following interbody cages; the Medtronic Adaptix™ cage with roughened micro and nano-textured titanium surfaces or the CAPSTONE® poly-ether-ether-ketone cage.

Detailed Description
The randomized controlled trial will prospectively evaluate the efficacy of Medtronic Adaptix™ titanium implants supplemented with a pedicle screw system as compared to a Medtronic CAPSTONE® PEEK cage currently used in routine fashion for lumbar interbody fusion procedures. This study will capture clinical and radiographic outcomes on patients up to 2 years postoperatively. Both cages will be used in conjunction with a 50:50 mixture of autograft: allograft using milled local autograft bone and GRAFTON™ DBM DBF (no iliac crest autograft will be utilized).
This single-centered study will enroll up to 100 subjects, with subjects followed for 24 months post-surgery. All subjects enrolled in the study will be recruited from a pool of subjects eligible for combined interbody/posterolateral lumbar fusion surgery. The inclusion/exclusion criteria are listed below.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Medtronic Adaptix™ titanium implants This arm will use Medtronic Adaptix™ titanium implants supplemented with a pedicle screw system. Both cages will be used in conjunction with a 50:50 mixture of autograft: allograft using milled local autograft bone and GRAFTON™ DBM DBF (no iliac crest autograft will be utilized). |
Device: Medtronic Adaptix™ titanium implants
Patients who will be having a spinal fusion procedure as part of their standard of care treatment will be randomized to receive either the Medtronic titanium or the PEEK cage supplemented with a pedicle screw system and milled local autograft bone supplemented with GRAFTON DBM DBF. In order to assess fusion, patients will undergo a research-only CT Scan at 6 months post-surgery.

| Active Comparator: Medtronic CAPSTONE® PEEK cage This arm will use Medtronic CAPSTONE® PEEK cage supplemented with a pedicle screw system. Both cages will be used in conjunction with a 50:50 mixture of autograft: allograft using milled local autograft bone and GRAFTON™ DBM DBF (no iliac crest autograft will be utilized). |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Fusion rate at 6 months [6 months]
A subject will be considered a success if fusion is a Grade BSF-3 at 6 months. The primary outcome measure of effectiveness will be determined by the fusion rate at 6 months post-operatively in subjects implanted with either titanium cage as compared to the PEEK cage.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Timing of fusion [24 months]
Secondary measures of effectiveness will be determined by the principal investigator by evidence and timing of fusion observed in X-rays post-operatively (3, 6, 12, and 24 months).
