- Sagittal plane translation (slippage) of the superior (cranial) vertebral body anterior or posterior to the inferior (caudal) vertebral body greater than 3mm, or Coronal plane translation (slippage) of the superior (cranial) vertebral body lateral to the inferior (caudal) vertebral body greater than 3mm, or Narrowing (stenosis) of the lumbar spinal canal and/or intervertebral foramen
- Has single-level or adjacent two-level involvement from L2 to S1.
- Has preoperative Oswestry score ≥30.
- Has preoperative back pain score of ≥ 6 based on the Preoperative Back and Leg Pain Questionnaire (pain intensity + pain frequency).

- Is at least 18 years of age and skeletally mature at the time of surgery.
- Has not responded to non-operative treatment (e.g., bed rest, physical therapy, medications, spinal injections, manipulation, and/or TENS) for a period of six months.
- Is willing and able to comply with the study plan and able to understand and sign the Subject Informed Consent Form.
Exclusion
- Requires spinal fusion at more than two lumbar levels or at two non-adjacent levels.
- Has had a prior lumbar surgical fusion procedure at the involved or adjacent spinal levels.

- Has scoliosis greater than 30 degrees.
- Has had a previous diagnosis of osteoporosis, osteopenia, or osteomalacia.
- In addition, if the subject has any of the following risk factors, a DEXA scan should be performed to determine eligibility:
- History of a non-traumatic hip or spine fracture. Female who is postmenopausal. Female over the age of 65. Male over the age of 70. If the DEXA T-score is -2.5 or lower, OR a T-score of -1.5 or lower WITH a history of a vertebral compression fracture, the subject is excluded.

- Has a history of clinically significant cardiac or hematologic disease.
- Has a history of autoimmune disease known to affect bone metabolism or the spine. Examples include spondyloarthropathies (e.g., ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis), juvenile arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, Grave's disease, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
- Has a medical disease or condition that would preclude accurate clinical evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of the treatments in this study, such as motor weakness, sensory loss, or painful conditions that inhibit normal ambulation or other activities of daily living.
- Has a history of any endocrine or metabolic disorder known to affect osteogenesis (e.g., Paget's disease, renal osteodystrophy, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, or osteogenesis imperfecta).
- Has chronic or acute renal and/or hepatic failure or prior history of renal and/or hepatic parenchymal disease.
- Has a history of exposure to injectable collagen.
- Has received any previous exposure to any/all BMPs of either human or animal extraction.

- Is pregnant or nursing. Female of child-bearing potential must agree not to become pregnant for one year following surgery.
- Is a Worker's Compensation case or is involved in spinal litigation.
