Summary

This trial is testing a new neck disc replacement device called BAGUERA®C on patients with neck disc problems. The device aims to replace damaged discs, helping to restore normal movement and reduce pain.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 22-69 with cervical disc disease at two levels from C3 to C7, experiencing neck or arm pain and other symptoms despite non-operative treatment. Must have certain radiographic signs of degeneration or herniation, be medically cleared for surgery, and able to follow the study protocol. Excludes those with severe bone diseases, prior cervical surgeries, infections, certain allergies, autoimmune diseases affecting musculoskeletal system, obesity (BMI > 40), heavy nicotine use or substance abuse.
What is being tested?
The trial is comparing BAGUERA®C Cervical Disc Prosthesis with Mobi-C® Cervical Disc in treating symptomatic cervical disc disease. Participants are randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to either the investigational device (BAGUERA®C) or control device (Mobi-C®). They will be monitored from pre-surgery up until seven years post-surgery.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort at the implant site, infection risks associated with surgery, allergic reactions to materials in the devices if sensitivity exists. Long-term effects could involve issues related to wear and tear of prosthetic components.

Other Research
Total disc replacement (TDR) for Cervical Disc Disease (CDD) involves replacing a damaged cervical disc with an artificial disc to maintain the natural motion of the spine and alleviate symptoms such as pain and neurological deficits. This approach helps preserve the range of motion and reduces stress on adjacent discs, potentially preventing further degeneration. For CDD patients, this means better long-term outcomes and a lower risk of additional spinal issues compared to traditional fusion surgeries, which limit spinal mobility.
