PainTEQ enrolled the first patient in TRAQTION, a prospective, multicenter clinical study evaluating outcomes associated with posterior sacroiliac joint procedures utilizing the cortical-piercing TRAQ allograft.
TRAQTION is expected to enroll up to 100 patients across up to 10 sites in the United States with two-year follow-up. The study is designed to evaluate patient-reported outcomes, safety, healthcare utilization, and the real-world experience associated with posterior sacroiliac joint procedures utilizing TRAQ. TRAQ is utilized in posterior sacroiliac joint procedures and is intended to traverse the sacroiliac joint, resulting in a cortical-piercing trajectory through both the sacrum and ilium.
“The cortical engagement approach represents a meaningful step forward for PainTEQ, and TRAQTION is built to evaluate it with the prospective rigor the field deserves. Two years of follow-up across a multicenter cohort will give us a clear view of durability, safety, and patient experience. This is exactly the evidence physicians need to inform how they position this procedure for their patients,” said Lalit Venkatesan, Senior Vice President of Clinical Research at PainTEQ.
