Summary

Multi-center, international, prospective, open-label, single-arm, first-in-human clinical investigation. The Patients enrolled in this clinical investigation will undergo a scheduled surgery for the treatment of long bone defects up to 6 cm using GreenBone Implant. After the surgery, the Patients will be monitored at pre-scheduled visits up to 12 months. Adverse events, pain, quality of life and functional parameters, as well as X-ray and CT scan, will be evaluated at scheduled follow-up visits. An independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will review the safety reports at regular intervals and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) as soon as reported, to protect Patients participating in the study. The initial phase of the study contemplates the treatment of bone defects up to 3 cm. An adaptive interim analysis will be performed when the first 7 Patients will have completed the 6-month follow-up visit. The DSMB will review the results of the interim analysis with respect to the primary endpoint (safety), and provide one of the following recommendations to the Sponsor: a) to stop the study for unacceptable frequency and severity of adverse events or b) to continue the study up to 25 Patients recruited and to include at least 5 Patients with a longer bone defect (\> 3 cm up to 6 cm).

Conditions

  • Bone Substitutes
  • Bone Defect

Interventions

DEVICE

surgical repair of long bone defects

Current treatment of bone defects usually implies the use of bone grafts and/or biocompatible materials, to create a scaffold that bridges the defect, favoring the migration of cells from the neighboring tissues to fill the gap. Autograft and Allograft are the treatments most currently used for large bone loss, but both treatments have significant disadvantages. Different types of synthetic materials have been tested for repair of long bone gaps. However, at the moment, there is not any bone substitute with the ideal/desirable osteoinductive, osteoconductive and mechanical properties. GreenBone Implant is a synthetic, acellular, reabsorbable, new generation bone graft, being suitable for surgical reconstruction of bone defects.
