Study Overview

Brief Summary

This is a prospective, multi-center controlled observational clinical study. All subjects will receive Titan Endoskeleton TT/TO acid etched titanium implant for the planned procedure. Each site will have a predetermined bonegraft extender to be used in all enrolled subjects at that site.

  • Subject must understand and sign the written Informed Consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Previous history of fusion surgery at the index level(s).
  • Clinical, laboratory and/or radiological evidence of back pain secondary to acute or chronic infection, malignancy, other space occupying lesions and metabolic bone demineralization diseases (e.g. osteomalacia, gout, Paget's disease etc.)
  • Osteoporosis defined as a DEXA bone density measurement T score ≤ 2.5 (Necessity for DEXA scan will be determined by investigator's standard of care)
  • Any terminal or autoimmune disease including but not limited to HIV infection, rheumatoid arthritis or lupus.
  • Any other concurrent medical disease that might impair normal healing process.
  • Morbid obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2).

  • Currently a prisoner.
  • Currently experiencing a major mental illness (psychosis, schizophrenia, major affective disorder) which may indicate that the symptoms are psychological rather than of physical origin.
