Summary
This trial tested a new type of cement for treating spinal fractures caused by osteoporosis, to see if it is safe and effective.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures that haven't improved with medical treatment within the last 6 months. Participants must have a specific level of pain and disability, one treatable fracture between Th5 to L5 vertebrae, and be able to follow the study's procedures. Exclusions include cancer in the spine, severe obesity (BMI ≥ 40), prior similar treatments, certain coagulation disorders or infections, pregnancy, drug abuse history, recent participation in another study, pacemakers or radiotherapy affecting the spine.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing two types of bone cement: V-Steady alone versus V-Flex which includes a softener additive. The goal is to see if adding Inossia™ Cement Softener makes any difference in safety and effectiveness when treating spinal compression fractures compared to using bone cement without it.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include local reactions at the injection site like pain or infection; allergic reactions to materials used; bleeding; increased back pain; numbness or weakness due to nerve damage; cement leaking into surrounding areas causing complications.
