Abstract Posterolateral spinal fusion (PLF) is a procedure used for the treatment of degenerative spine disease. In this study we evaluated Osteogrow-C, a novel osteoinductive device comprised of recombinant human Bone morphogenetic protein 6 (rhBMP6) dispersed in autologous blood coagulum with synthetic ceramic particles, in the sheep PLF model. Osteogrow-C implants containing 74–420 or 1000–1700 µm ceramic particles (TCP/HA 80/20) were implanted between L4–L5 transverse processes in sheep (Ovis Aries, Merinolaandschaf breed). In the first experiment (n = 9 sheep; rhBMP6 dose 800 µg) the follow-up period was 27 weeks while in the second experiment (n = 12 sheep; rhBMP6 dose 500 µg) spinal fusion was assessed by in vivo CT after 9 weeks and at the end of the experiment after 14 (n = 6 sheep) and 40 (n = 6 sheep) weeks. Methods of evaluation included microCT, histological analyses and biomechanical testing. Osteogrow-C implants containing both 74–420 and 1000–1700 µm ceramic particles induced radiographic solid fusion 9 weeks following implantation. Ex-vivo microCT and histological analyses revealed complete osseointegration of newly formed bone with adjacent transverse processes. Biomechanical testing confirmed that fusion between transverse processes was complete and successful. Osteogrow-C implants induced spinal fusion in sheep PLF model and therefore represent a novel therapeutic solution for patients with degenerative disc disease. |
