Study of the Braive Growth Modulation System for Progressive Pediatric Scoliosis

Study Purpose

The purpose of this study is to establish probable benefits and evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the Braive™ GMS when used in the treatment of pediatric progressive scoliosis.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

A subject must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to participate in this study:
  • - Has a diagnosis of juvenile or adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
  • - Is skeletally immature with a Sanders Score of ≥2 to ≤5.
  • - Has failed conservative care as per investigator's assessment.
  • - Has a main thoracic Cobb angle between 30 and 60 degrees.
  • - Has a Lenke Classification of 1A, 1B, or 1C.
  • - Has kyphosis ≤ 40 degrees with a sagittal thoracic modifier N or negative.
  • - Informed Consent Form/Assent and Authorization to Use and Disclose Health Information (if applicable) have been signed by Parent/legal guardian and/or patient/participant per local requirement.

Exclusion Criteria:

A subject will be excluded from participating in this study for any of the following reasons:
  • - Has undergone previous spinal fusion procedure(s) at the affected levels.
  • - Is pregnant or plans to become pregnant within the first 24-months of the study.
  • - Has a curve that requires instrumentation below L1.
  • - Has spinal MRI abnormalities (e.g., CHIARI malformation, Syrinx greater than 4mm, tethered cord) - Has any type of non-idiopathic scoliosis.
  • - Has a left-sided curve.
  • - Has an associated syndrome.
  • - Has a history of malignant hyperthermia.
  • - Has an active or significant risk of infection (immunocompromised) - Has inadequate tissue coverage over the operative site as per investigator's assessment.
  • - Has a suspected or documented allergy or intolerance to implant materials.
  • - Has a major psychiatric disorder / history of drug abuse that would interfere with the subject's ability to comply with study instructions or might confound the study interpretation as per investigator's assessment (DSM-5 can be used as a reference) - Is a ward of the court/state.
  • - Has had prior ipsilateral or contralateral chest surgery.
  • - Has severe chronic lung disease (e.g., asthma, bronchiectasis) - Has poor bone quality, as determined by the investigator, that may limit anterior fixation.
  • - Is unwilling or unable to return for follow-up visits and/or follow intra-operative and/or postoperative instructions.
- Concurrent participation in another clinical study that may add additional safety risks and/or confound study results

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT04929678
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Braive™ Growth Modulation System (Braive™ GMS)

Interventions

Device: - Braive™ Growth Modulation System (Braive™ GMS)

The Braive™ GMS is designed as a growth-modulation, non-fusion technique, which utilizes patients' remaining growth potential to limit further progression of the curve, to provide correction of the thoracic spine, and allow continued growth while maintaining mobility. The system consists of the following components: Braid, Fixed Angle Screws (FAS), Plate, and Break-Off Set Screw.
