Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Achievement of durable posterolateral fusion

    Measured from x-ray and/or computed tomography (CT) scans. Standard criteria of determining fusion is visualization of continuous trabeculating bone bridging the transverse processes and facets on AP and lateral x-rays or when there is \< 2 degree angular motion and \< 2mm of translation on standing flexion and extension radiographs.

    Within 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Achievement of posterolateral fusion

    Up to 12 months

  • Occurrence of subsequent hardware failure

    Every 3 months for 12 months

  • Requirement of additional treatment is for instability

    Within 12 months

  • First documentation of posterolateral fusion

    Within 12 months

  • Occurrence of pain or disability experienced after surgery that is related to spinal metastasis or is a consequence of the resulting treatment

    Every 3 months for 12 months

Study Arms (1)

Supportive care (ChronOS)

EXPERIMENTAL

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All patients undergoing surgery for spinal decompression for tatic spine cancer who require bone substitute for a posterolateral spinal fusion
  • Patients may or may not have posterolateral instrumentation

You may not qualify if:

  • Status-post previous fusion with allogeneic bone graft
