Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of the Hexanium TLIF system in the treatment of skeletally mature patients suffering from degenerative disc disease (disease that occurs when the spinal disk break down).

Part of their standard of care, participants will be questioned on their back and leg pains, their disability and if they have encountered any adverse effects since the Hexanium TLIF system implant surgery. Those data will be collected up to twenty four (24) months after the Hexanium TLIF system implant surgery.

Read the detailed description

The Hexanium TLIF study is a multicentric, international, ambispective, post market clinical follow-up study. This means that either subjects already implanted with the Hexanium TLIF system (retrospective subjects) or subjects planned for treatment with the Hexanium TLIF (prospective subjects) can be enrolled in the study.

Standard of care subjects data up to twenty four (24) months post Hexanium TLIF system implant procedure will be collected; key data include back and leg Visual Analogue Score (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score, and adverse events.

Data will be collected at Month 2, Month 6, Month 12 and Month 24 post surgery.

Study population

All patients eligible for treatment or already treated with the Hexanium TLIF system device will be offered to participate in the study; this applies to primary care clinic.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient planned for Hexanium TLIF system implant or patient implant with Hexanium TLIF system (not prior to July 2021)
  • Patient of 18 years old or more
  • Patient has provided signed , or did not oppose to his/her data collection, per local regulation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Infection, local to the operative site
  • Signed of local inflammation
  • Fever or leukocytosis
  • Morbid obesity
  • Pregnancy
  • Paediatric cases, or patient still having general skeletal growth
  • Spondylolisthesis unable to be reduced to Grade I
  • Suspected or documented allergy or intolerance to metal
  • Any case where the implant components selected for use would be too large or too small to achieve a successful result
  • Any patient having inadequate tissue coverage over the operative site or inadequate bone stock or quality
  • Any patient in which implant utilization would interfere with anatomical structures or expected physiological performance
  • Prior fusion at the level to be treated
  • Any case not needing a bone graft or fusion
  • Any abnormality present which affects the normal process of bone remodelling including, but not limited to severe osteoporosis involving spine, bone absorption, osteopenia, primary or tumours involving the spine, active infection at the site or certain metabolic disorders affecting osteogenesis
  • Any other condition which would preclude the potential benefit of spinal implant surgery, such as the presence of tumours or congenital abnormalities, fracture local to operating site, elevation of segmentation rate unexplained by other diseases, elevation of white blood count (WBC), or marked left shift in the WBC differential count
  • Mental illness
  • Any patient unwilling to cooperate with post-operative instructions
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Interventions

  • DeviceTransforaminal lumbar interbody fusion

    Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion indicates a surgical approach in the lumbar spine to fuse the discal space between two vertebrae. These are joined by removing the disc and placing a cage in its place to restore the vertebral height. Screws and rods are also added to maintain the level secure while the bones fuse together.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of serious adverse device and/or procedure related events

    Rate of the serious adverse events related to the study device and / or surgical implant procedure will be analyzed and compared to the state of the art.

    Time frame: Month 24

  2. Change of the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)

    ODI mean score at Month 12 will be compared to the ODI mean score at baseline.

    Time frame: Month 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Fusion success

    Fusion rate will be analyzed and compared to the state of the art.

    Time frame: Month 2, month 6, month 12 and month 24

  2. Change of the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)

    Mean ODI score evolution score will be analyzed.

    Time frame: Month 2, month 6, and month 24

  3. Change of the back and leg Visual Analogue Score (VAS)

    Back and leg VAS assessment will be analyzed.

    Time frame: Month 2, month 6, month 12 and month 24

  4. Incidence of revision surgery at implant site

    Rate of revision surgery at implant site will be analyzed and compared to the state of the art.

    Time frame: Month 2, month 6, month 12 and month 24

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Jul 2021 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Oct 2027, 75 months after the start.

Of 80 observational studies under Intervertebral Disc Degeneration, half reached primary completion within 61 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 45 and three quarters within 84. This study's planned 75 months is above that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 18, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
