MasterGraft GranulesACTIVE_COMPARATORAnterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion with MasterGraft Granules MASTERGRAFT® GRANULES are a medical-grade, polyporous resorbable ceramic hybrid composed of 15% hydroxyapatite (HA) and 85% beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). The combination of these natural bone materials provides surgeons with an osteoconductive, porous implant that improves osteointegration by allowing cells to colonize throughout the implant and optimize the bone healing process

Frequently asked questions about NeoFuse

What is NeoFuse used for?

NeoFuse is an investigational cell therapy being developed for degenerative disc disease and cervical degenerative disc disease. It is studied in patients requiring spinal fusion procedures, including posterolateral lumbar fusion and multi-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. NeoFuse is in Phase 2 clinical development and is not yet approved by the FDA.

Who makes NeoFuse?

NeoFuse is being developed by Mesoblast Limited, a biopharmaceutical company publicly traded under the ticker MESO. Mesoblast is conducting clinical trials of NeoFuse in the United States and Australia for spinal fusion indications related to degenerative disc disease.

What phase is NeoFuse in?

NeoFuse is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed two Phase 1 trials and one Phase 2 trial, all of which are finished. NeoFuse remains investigational and has not received FDA approval for any indication.

What clinical trials is NeoFuse in?

NeoFuse has completed three clinical trials. NCT00549913 was a Phase 1 study of three doses in posterolateral lumbar fusion. NCT01097486 was a Phase 2 safety and efficacy study in multi-level anterior cervical discectomy. NCT01106417 was a Phase 1 study in multi-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion.

Is NeoFuse the same as MasterGraft Granules?

No, NeoFuse is not the same as MasterGraft Granules. In clinical trial NCT00549913, NeoFuse was combined with MasterGraft Granules, a bone graft substitute, in patients requiring posterolateral lumbar fusion. NeoFuse is the investigational cell therapy being tested, while MasterGraft Granules served as the carrier or scaffold.
