NCT00517751

Brief Summary

This prospective, multicenter longitudinal five-year study of X-STOP PEEK usage in LSS patients is designed to supplement pre-market safety and effectiveness data with information on longer-term device performance in a population of patients with moderately impaired physical function at preoperative baseline (i.e., an "indicated" population) who elect to undergo X STOP PEEK surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Treatment Success Rate at 24 Months

    Treatment success rate is reported as the percentage of participants who met all of the following criteria: 1. Clinically significant improvement (by at least 0.5 points) in the Symptom Severity (SS) domain of the Zurich Claudication Questionnaire (ZCQ) compared to preoperative baseline 2. Clinically significant improvement (by at least 0.5 points) in the Physical Function (PF) domain of the ZCQ compared to pre-operative baseline 3. Patient satisfaction with treatment defined as a Patient Satisfaction (PS) score \< 2.5 4. No additional surgery for lumbar stenosis performed 5. Maintenance of distraction 6. No dislodgement of the implant 7. No device-related complications

    24 months

Study Arms (1)

X-STOP PEEK

EXPERIMENTAL

In this arm, patients will undergo X-STOP PEEK surgery.

Device: X-STOP PEEK

Interventions

Placement of X-STOP PEEK in up to two levels in the lumbar spine for patients diagnosed with moderately symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis in accordance with current labeling instructions for use.

X-STOP PEEK

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • has a baseline score \>2.0 in the Physical Function (PF) domain of the Zurich Claudication Questionnaire
  • is 50 years old or older
  • has leg/buttock/groin pain with or without back pain NOTE: Leg/buttock/groin pain must be completely relieved when flexed such as when sitting in a chair. If back pain is also present, it must be partially relieved when flexed.
  • can sit for 50 minutes without pain
  • can walk 50 feet or more
  • has a confirmed diagnosis of neurogenic intermittent claudication secondary to lumbar spinal stenosis, with X-Ray, MRI and/or CT evidence of thickened ligamentum flavum, narrowed lateral recess and/or central canal narrowing
  • has completed at least six months of conservative care therapy which may include but is not limited to physical therapy, bracing, systemic or injected medications
  • has signed a patient informed consent document
  • is physically and mentally willing and able or has a caregiver who can comply with the postoperative and routinely scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations
  • lives in the immediate area and has no plans to relocate to another geographic area before completion of the study or lives outside the immediate area and will comply with the scheduled postoperative visits with a prearranged and designated physician

You may not qualify if:

  • has a baseline score less than or equal to 2.0 in the Physical Function (PF) domain of the Zurich Claudication Questionnaire
  • cannot sit for 50 minutes
  • cannot walk more than 50 feet
  • has unremitting pain in any spinal position
  • has axial back pain only without leg/buttock/groin pain
  • has a fixed motor deficit
  • has cauda equina syndrome defined as neural compression causing neurogenic bowel (rectal incontinence) or bladder (bladder retention or incontinence) dysfunction
  • has severe symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis at more than two levels
  • has significant instability of the lumbar spine, e.g., isthmic spondylolisthesis or degenerative spondylolisthesis greater than grade 1 (on a scale of 1 to 4)
  • has an ankylosed segment at the affected level(s);
  • has significant scoliosis (Cobb angle is greater than 25 degrees)
  • has an acute fracture of the spinous process or pars interarticularis
  • has sustained pathologic fractures of the vertebrae or multiple fractures of the vertebrae and /or hips
  • has severe osteoporosis of the spine or hip, defined as bone mineral density (BMD) in the spine or hip more than 2.5 SD below the mean of adult normals in the presence of one or more fragility fractures
  • has Paget's disease at the involved segment(s) or metastasis to the vertebrae
  • +14 more criteria
