Inclusion criteria

* Patients with lumbar disc herniation (L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L4, L4-L5 or L5-S1) as assessed by MRI and clinical symptoms corresponding to position of the impaired nerve root. * Patients assessed as positive in the Femoral Nerve Stretching (FNS) test for L1-L2, L2-L3, or L3-L4 and Straight Leg Raising (SLR) test. * Patients with sciatica in either leg. * Patients with no improvement from conservative treatment

Exclusion criteria

* Patients who have 2 or more lumbar disc herniations as assessed by MRI. * Patients in whom a rupture into the posterior longitudinal ligament is identified by MRI. * Patients who have undergone lumbar operation, or lumbar percutaneous nucleotomy or lumbar intradiscal therapies

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE)26 weeksA treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an adverse event (AE) that began or that worsened in severity after the investigational drug had been administered. All AEs, including intercurrent illnesses and regardless of the relationship to investigational drug, occurring during the study were documented from the signing of the informed consent form until completion of final visit. Concomitant illnesses, which existed before entry into the study, were not considered AEs unless they worsened during the treatment period. All AEs, regardless of the source of identification (e.g., physical examination, laboratory assessment, or reported by patient), had to be documented.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Worst Leg Pain as Assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS)26 weeksWorst leg pain intensity during the past 24 hours assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 100 mm line that represents a continuum between no pain (0 mm) and extreme pain (100 mm).

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

Patients are enrolled in the study once eligibility is determined, but after enrollment, injection to the intervertebral disc may not be feasible due to anatomical reasons and patient condition during injection procedure. Therefore, Enrollment number in the Protocol Section (1011) and patients who Started the study (991) are not necessarily the same.
