Inclusion Criteria:
* Documented diagnosis of DDD requiring single level fusion (L2-S1) with up to Grade I Spondylolisthesis
* Have a preoperative screening qualifying VAS and ODI scores
* Be a skeletally mature male or a non-pregnant, non-lactating female, age 18 -70 inclusive
* Have not been sufficiently responsive to at least 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to study enrollment
Exclusion Criteria:
* Are female subjects who are pregnant or nursing, or women planning to become pregnant during the first year (12 months) following the surgery
* A history of previous surgery in the lumbar spine with or without attempted fusion
* Grade II or greater spondylolisthesis
* More than 0 degrees of kyphosis at the operated disc space
* Evidence of scoliosis in the lumbar region of more than 10 degrees
* Collapsed disc space with bridging osteophytes
* A systemic or local infection at the site of surgery
* An acute fracture of the spine at the time of enrollment in the study
* An active history of systemic malignancy
* A medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude participation in the study
* A known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the product or a known titanium allergy or a known allergy to polyetheretherketone (PEEK)
* A history of any autoimmune disease, such as, systemic lupus erythematosus, Addison's disease, Crohn's disease, or rheumatoid arthritis
* A history of any…
