Scoliosis clinical trials at UCSF
3 research studies open to eligible people
Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves sideways. UCSF is recruiting for clinical trials to find out the best practices for treating adults with complex spinal deformities. These include evaluating surgical outcomes and using new techniques to prevent complications during spinal fusion surgery. Join a trial to help us learn more!
Complex Adult Deformity Surgery (CADS)
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.

Complex Adult Spinal Deformity (CAD) Treated With Minimally Invasive Surgery
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients treated with minimally invasive approach, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.
