Durability of Supplemental Nucleus Pulposus Allograft in Patients with Lumbar Discogenic Pain.
Background: The objective of this study was to determine the degree of improvement in lumbar discogenic pain severity and associated back impairment in patients with chronic axial low back pain treated with intradiscally delivered allogeneic nucleus pulposus (NP) at up to two vertebral levels (L1-S1).
Methods: Prospective, single-arm clinical study conducted at 6 sites in the US involving 28 participants with discogenic pain (mean age: 44 ± 13 yrs) and modified Pfirrmann grade 3-7 on magnetic resonance imaging. This report includes the final participant follow up at 24 months post procedure. Back pain severity was evaluated using an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) and back function using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and substantial clinical benefit (SCB) were set at ≥30% and ≥50% over baseline, respectively. The patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) threshold for pain severity was ≤3.
Results: The average improvement in back pain severity from 7.1 ± 1.6 at baseline to 3.6 ± 2.9 at 24 months was 43% (p<0.001). Approximately 64% (14 of 22) of participants achieved both the MCID and SCB in back pain at 24 months, while nearly 55% (12 of 22) reported a 24-month back pain severity score of ≤3. The corresponding average decrease in ODI values was 53% (p<0.001) with 73% (16 of 22) of participants achieving the MCID. At baseline approximately 82% (23 of 28) of participants reported severe or crippled back impairment compared to 18% (4 of 22) at 24 months (p<0.001). There was no association between modified Pfirrmann grade, number of levels treated or Modic changes and any outcome (range: p=0.12 to 0.43).
Conclusion: This study provides evidence of clinically significant pain relief and functional improvement through 24 months of follow up after a single allogeneic NP supplementation procedure in patients with lumbar discogenic pain.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Pain Research is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that welcomes laboratory and clinical findings in the fields of pain research and the prevention and management of pain. Original research, reviews, symposium reports, hypothesis formation and commentaries are all considered for publication. Additionally, the journal now welcomes the submission of pain-policy-related editorials and commentaries, particularly in regard to ethical, regulatory, forensic, and other legal issues in pain medicine, and to the education of pain practitioners and researchers.
