Study of IDCT (rebonuputemcel) for Degenerative Disc Disease

This study is looking at a treatment called IDCT (rebonuputemcel) for people with mild to moderate degenerative disc disease (DDD) in their lower back. DDD is a condition where the discs between your spinal bones wear down, causing pain. Researchers want to see if a single injection of IDCT, compared to a sham (no treatment) injection, can reduce low back pain and improve daily function. To join, you need to be between 18 and 75 years old with specific signs of DDD on an MRI. The study will measure your pain and ability to do daily activities over 52 weeks to see if the treatment is effective. The study is currently recruiting about 162 participants.

Study design
This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blinded study comparing IDCT to a sham treatment. Approximately 162 participants will be enrolled.
What's involved
You would be screened for eligibility, which includes MRI and X-ray imaging. You would receive a single injection and be followed for 52 weeks, with a total study duration of 104 weeks.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for 52 weeks after treatment, with a total follow-up period of 104 weeks.

  • Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for low back painWeek 52

    VAS is a sliding visual scale of 0 being "no pain" and 100 being "worst pain Imaginable' to assess changesfrom baseline in low back pain compared to Sham

  • Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)Week 52

    ODI is a 10-item questionnaire used to measure functional disability in people with low back pain. It is a self-administered tool that assesses how back pain affects daily activities like walking, sleeping, and personal hygiene, with scores ranging from 0% (no disability) to 100% (maximum disability).

  • Adverse EventsDay 1 to Week 52 in each treatment group.

    Incidence of grade 2 (moderate) or greater AEs and SAEs

  • Adverse events of special interestDay 1 to Week 52 in each treatment group

    Incidence of Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) to include any symptomatic injury of the target disc including annular tear, disc herniation/extrusion/prolapse as well as discitis.
