Lumbar Spinal Stenosis clinical trials at UCSF

3 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • LimiFlex Clinical Trial for the Treatment of Degenerative Spondylolisthesis With Spinal Stenosis

    open to eligible people ages 25-80

    The LimiFlex™ Clinical Trial is a prospective, concurrently controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of decompression and stabilization with the Empirical Spine LimiFlex™ Paraspinous Tension Band compared to decompression and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) with concomitant posterolateral fusion (PLF) for the treatment of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (Grade I per Meyerding classification) with spinal stenosis. Clinical trial sites will enroll solely LimiFlex subjects or solely TLIF/PLF subjects.

  • MILD® Percutaneous Image-Guided Lumbar Decompression: A Medicare Claims Study

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This prospective longitudinal study will compare incidence rates of Medicare beneficiary surgical and minimally invasive intervention post index procedure, as well as harms associated with the MILD procedure, at 24 months post-treatment with MILD, tested against a control group of similar patients that have had a comparable procedure.

  • SLIP II Registry: Spinal Laminectomy Versus Instrumented Pedicle Screw Fusion

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The purpose of this registry is two fold. First, to determine the comparative effectiveness of decompression alone versus decompression with fusion for patients with degenerative grade I spondylolisthesis and symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis. Primary analysis will focus on the patients' improvement from baseline patient-reported outcome questionnaires. The registry will also determine if an expert panel review of individual patient cases (degenerative grade I spondylolisthesis/stenosis) is associated with improved outcome and patient satisfaction. This study aims to prospectively collect comparative data for these patients treated with either decompression alone or decompression with fusion.
