Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Participant is ≥ 22 and ≤75 years of age.
- If female of childbearing potential, participant is non-pregnant, non-nursing, and agrees to use highly effective methods of contraception for a minimum of 24 months post-treatment.
- Participant has a documented diagnosis of early to moderate degenerative disc disease, confirmed by medical history, physical and neurological examination.
- Participant has a discogenic mechanical Low Back Pain (LBP) of an intervertebral disc/s from L1 to S1, based on the following (participant must meet all the listed conditions):
- Chronic mechanical (axial) low back pain for at least 6 months
- Have failed 3 months of conservative back pain care
- Change from normal disc morphology of the index disc as defined on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Xray evaluation must show the following:
- Single level or up to two symptomatic (causing chronic LBP) discs from L1 to S1
- A modified Pfirrmann score of 3, 4, 5 or 6 on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the index disc/s.
- Modic Grade II changes or less on MRI at the index disc.
- With or without contained disc protrusion, with no nerve compression, at the index disc on MRI.
- Low back pain of at least 40mm and not more than 90mm of 100mm on low back pain visual analogue scale (VAS) (average pain over 7 days diary)
- Low back pain predominant over leg pain on a 100mm VAS scale
- Oswestry disability index (ODI) score of at least 30 and no more than 90 on a 100- point scale.
- Participant has the ability to comply with the instructions for use of the Discure System.
- +1 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- BMI \> 35
- Back Pain characteristics:
- Any surgical correction procedure for scoliosis at any time, or a current clinical diagnosis of scoliosis
- Lumbar spine stenosis, as defined by an anterior-posterior diameter of the spinal canal of \<10mm in participants with lower extremity pain
- Neurological deficit possibly associated with the back pain (e.g. foot drop)
- Back pain due to pelvic or visceral reasons (e.g.: endometriosis or fibroids) or infection (e.g.: post herpetic neuralgia)
- Back pain due to damage to the spinal cord or adjacent structures (e.g., arachnoiditis or syringomyelia)
- Pathology seen on MRI, other than DDD, that is clearly identified and is likely the cause of the Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP) that is surgical.
- Back pain due to other causes, such as vascular (e.g., aortic aneurysm and dissection), GI, GYU, oncological etc.
- Source of pain is the sacroiliac joint or facet joint as determined by the Investigator.
- Any prior diagnosis of lumbar vertebral compression fracture, lumbar pars fracture, or lumbar annular tear with disc protrusion of the target operative disc, that is surgical.
- Participant has lumbar spondylitis or other undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy at the target disc.
- Participant has had previous lumbar spine surgery at level L1-2 to L5-S1
- Participant has had previous disc invasive treatment procedures, into the target disc/s, except for contrast media-discography performed at least 2 weeks prior to study enrollment.
- Participant has current infection at the planned procedure site, active systemic infection, or current or prior history of lumbar spinal infection (i.e., discitis, septic arthritis, epidural abscess)
