About this trial

The aim of this project is to assess the effectiveness of the IlluminOss pelvic implants in patients with pelvic metastatic disease presenting with pain, risk of pathologic fracture, non-displaced or minimally displaced pathologic fracture of the pelvis, and geriatric patients with pelvic fragility fractures. Results from this study will be used to confirm preliminary clinically and possibly statistically significant reductions in pain and improvements in function among these patients.

IlluminOss Pelvic Implant is intended to treat pain due to impending or actual non-displaced or minimally displaced pathologic fractures of the pelvis secondary to metastatic malignancy, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, or radiation osteitis or a pelvic fragility fracture in a geriatric patients (age 65 or older)

VAS Pain Score ≥ 30 on 0 to 100 scale

Disqualifiers

Patient is uncooperative, or patient incapable of following directions (for example, as a consequence of a neurological or psychiatric disorder)

Patient is a prisoner

Patient is deemed surgically unfit by the medical oncology service

Trial population

Skeletally mature patients with undergoing surgery to treat pain due to impending or actual non-displaced or minimally displaced pathologic fractures of the pelvis secondary to metastatic malignancy, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, or radiation osteitis or a pelvic fragility fracture in a geriatric patients (age 65 or older).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Survey of patient-reported outcomes

Patients treated with the IlluminOss pelvic implant will be given functional and pain surveys pre-operatively (within 2 weeks before surgery) and post-operatively (at 2 days, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years). 100 patients will be included in the study. The surveys include the VAS Pain, the EQ-VAS, the Combined Pain and Ambulatory Function, the PROMIS Pain Inteference, and the PROMIS Physical Function. Additionally, the MSTS survey will be collected for oncologic patients. If needed, the surveys will be mailed to the patient with a pre-stamped and pre-addressed envelope. When mailing patients MSTS surveys, we will include a set of instructions to guide participants through the questions.
