Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Change in Pain
Change in VAS score from baseline. VAS is measured on a scale range from 0-100mm with 0 (no pain) to 100 (worst imaginable pain).
Baseline and 90 days
Change in Function
Change in Revised Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Rating Scale for Upper Extremity (MSTS). MSTS score is a six-item scale. It ranges from 0 to 30. Higher score is associated with better function. Scores were divided by 30 and multiplied by 100 to facilitate interpretation.
Baseline and 90 days
Summary of Clinical Safety Success
No serious device related complications, no additional surgical interventions, and no device fracture, migrations, mal-alignment or loss of reduction or fixation
Up to Day 7-14, Up to Day 30, Up to Day 90, Up to Day 180, Up to Day 360
Secondary Outcomes (8)
Pain at Palpation

Study Arms (1)
Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System
EXPERIMENTALPhotodynamic Bone Stabilization System (PBSS) is comprised of an inflatable, thin walled polyethylene terephthalate (PET; Dacron™) balloon mounted on an insertion catheter. This balloon catheter system is designed to deliver the monomer cement to the fracture site via the medullary canal of the bone
Interventions
Treatment of impending and actual pathological fractures of the humerus
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Skeletally mature adult males and females 18 years of age or older.
- Impending or actual pathological fracture of the humerus, secondary to metastatic bone disease.
- Females: neither pregnant nor intending to become pregnant during the course of the study, defined as:
- Postmenopausal for at least 1 year OR
- Documented oophorectomy or hysterectomy
- Surgically sterile OR
- If of childbearing potential, must be practicing double-barrier method of birth control, be willing to avoid pregnancy for the period of study participation and have a negative pregnancy test at screening
- Patient, or his/her legally authorized representative, is able to understand and provide informed consent.
- Willing and able to comply with post-operative treatment protocol and follow-up visit schedule.
- VAS Pain Score \> 60mm on 100mm scale.
- Documented presence of at least one metastatic lesion of the humerus.
- Mirels Criteria Score ≥ 8. (specific to the target humeral lesion and subject to minimum VAS score requirements)
- Destruction of cortical bone at impending fracture site \> 50%.
- Fracture is closed, Gustilo Type I or II.
You may not qualify if:
- Primary tumor (osteogenic origin, etc.) at site.
- Impending or actual fracture at any other location that, in the Investigator's opinion, would preclude ability to assess pain and/or function in the target humerus.
- Active or incompletely treated infections that could involve the device implant site.
- Distant foci of infection that may spread to the implant site.
- Allergy to implant materials or dental glue.
- In the investigator's judgment, functional deficit in the target humerus with an etiology other than bone metastases (e.g. due to vascular insufficiency).
- In the investigator's judgment, focal neurologic deficit as a result of metastases in the brain, spine, or other central nervous system disorders.
- Uncooperative patients, or patients who are incapable of following directions (for example, as a consequence of a neurological or psychiatric disorder).
- Prisoner
- Mirels Score \< 8 (specific to target humeral lesion).
- Destruction of cortical bone at impending fracture site \< 50%.
- Prior surgery and/or prior fracture of affected site.
- Any articular component to impending fracture site.
- Open fractures with severe contamination.
- Extremely comminuted fractures where insufficient holding power of the balloon on the intramedullary canal is probable.
