About this study

A controlled, open- label, blinded radiographic assessment, randomized, prospective, multicenter, multinational pivotal study in which patients with single level (L3-S1) degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (Grade 1 or 2) with spinal stenosis underwent decompression and spinal fusion and received OP-1 Putty or autograft. This study was a one-sided, non- inferiority trial comparing the overall success between the OP-1 Putty group and the control autograft group.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • The subject has a diagnosis of Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis of Grade I or II with Spinal Stenosis demonstrated by medical history, physical examination a n d radiographic imaging.
  • The subject is a candidate for decompression and spinal fusion with the use of autograft from the iliac crest.
