In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Objective: To identify new central nervous system (CNS) biomarkers to be used for blood-derived liquid biopsy once the blood-brain barrier (BBB), specifically the blood-arachnoid barrier (BAB), has been transiently disrupted by BDF in patients undergoing spine surgery. Design: Single center (Sheba Medical Center), prospective, controlled. Phase: Feasibility study Endpoints: Efficacy The primary endpoint of the study is the elevation in blood concentration of CNS biomarkers following the study procedure compared to biomarkers detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the same subject. Safety The primary safety endpoint will be the overall incidence of BDF procedure-related AEs and SAEs, with severity graded according to CTCAE v5.0 criteria. Study population: The study population will include up to 20 patients undergoing spine surgery. Study period: 24 months. Inclusion criteria:
