Lumbar Spinal Stenosis clinical trials at UCSF
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Lumbar spinal stenosis is a condition that causes lower back pain and leg weakness. There is a clinical trial at UCSF called "MILD® Percutaneous Image-Guided Lumbar Decompression: A Medicare Claims Study" that looks at how different treatments affect patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. Another trial is in progress but not open to new participants.
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. This study will start with patients treated with a study procedure having an index date on or after January 1, 2017, and enrollment will continue until stopped by the sponsor.

LimiFlex Clinical Trial for the Treatment of Degenerative Spondylolisthesis With Spinal Stenosis
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.
