Wallis Stabilization System for Low Back Pain

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the Wallis System (interspinous process implant) is equivalent to total disc replacement (TDR) for the treatment of mild to moderate degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at the L4-L5 level. This study will assess the safety and efficacy of the Wallis® System compared to commercially available lumbar TDR with respect to individual subject success rates at 24 months postoperative follow-up. Study participants will receive all study related test articles and surgical procedures at no charge.
