Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims
This is a post-market study to confirm the performance and safety of the TEKTONA system in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures. A compression fracture is usually defined as a vertebral bone in the spine that has decreased at least 15 to 20% in height due to fracture. The TEKTONA medical device reduces the vertebral fracture and allows the cement injection in the vertebra to consolidate it.

Who can participate?
Patients aged 18 years and over with vertebral compression fracture

What does the study involve?
The patient is screened during the preoperative visit. Those patients who are eligible for the study are invited to participate in the study. After reading the information letter, the patients should let their surgeon know if they agree/consent before any data collection. Clinical and radiographic data are collected at their preoperative, surgical, and postoperative clinical visits performed as the site standard of care.

What are the possible benefit and risks of participating?
As an observational study, there is no benefit or risk for the patients participating in the study.

Where is the study run from?
Spineart SA (Switzerland)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
January 2016 to December 2020

Who is funding the study?

Participant information sheet Not available in web format
Scientific titleEvaluation of the safety and performance of the compression spinal fracture treatment system, TEKTONA® prospective study
Study acronymTEKTONA® system
Study objectivesThe TEKTONA® system is designed to restore the vertebral height and reduce the angle of vertebral kyphosis, for the treatment of osteoporotic or osteopathic vertebral settlement fractures (FTV) Type A1 and A2 (a gap between fragments of less than 2 mm) and A3 in the MAGERL classification.
Ethics approval(s)Approved 26/04/2016, CPP Ile-de-France VI (Groupe Hospitalier Pitié-Salpêtrière, 47 Boulevard de l'Hôpital, 75013, Paris, France; +33 (0)1 42 16 16 83; cppidf6.salpetriere@yahoo.fr), ref: ID RCB 2016-A00150-51, CCTIRS # 16-640
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedVertebral compression fracture, stable type, without neurological deficit
InterventionEvaluation of qualitative and quantitative of pre-, peri- and post-operative data. Comparison between pre-and post-operative values provided by radiological parameters, pain medication, VAS, ODI and SF-12 scores. The risk assessment is determined by the rate of complications observed.
Intervention typeDevice
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhasePhase IV
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)TEKTONA®
Primary outcome measure1. Risks are measured by the incidence of perioperative complications and safety reporting and post-operative risks (adverse events reporting, radiological assessments at 6, 12 and 24 months)
2. Restoration of vertebral height (mm) and reduction of kyphosis (Cobb Angle) at the level operated is measured by comparing radiological images pre-surgery, perioperative, immediate post-surgery, at 6-, 12- and 24-months post-surgery
Secondary outcome measures1. Volume of cement injected and cement distribution (vertebral and horizontal) is measured (in ml) at surgery
2. Effectiveness of the system is measured by the duration of post-operative hospitalization
3. Pain is evaluated by changes in the use of pain medication and the visual analogue score (VAS) score pre-surgery, immediate post-surgery, at 6-, 12- and 24-months post-surgery
4. Quality of life is measured using the SF-12 questionnaire preoperatively, immediate postoperatively and at 6, 12 and 24 months and time between intervention and back to work
5. Functional evaluation using Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score preoperatively, immediate postoperatively and at 6, 12 and 24 months
Overall study start date26/01/2016
Completion date07/12/2020
