The clinical trial is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of an investigational device called the ACADIA Facet Replacement System. The device is made by Globus Medical.

In the clinical trial, surgeons will perform a standard surgical decompression to relieve nerve pressure and pain. However, instead of fusing the spine following decompression, the surgeon will replace the facet joints with the ACADIA implant.
