About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of Morbidity and Efficacy of Posterior IVS (Infracoccygeal Sacropexy), in Comparison to the Standard Sacrospinous Suspension in the Surgical Treatment of Vaginal Vault Prolapse by the Vaginal Route.

Hypothesis / aims of study The aim of this multicentre study is to evaluate anatomical and functional results of an innovative posterior tape in vaginal prolapse repair by vaginal route, in comparison to the sacrospinous suspension.

Study design, materials and methods This study involves 5 centres in French Public Hospital. Patients will be randomly allocated to be operated by a sacrospinous suspension or by an posterior IVSTM (Tyco Healthcare, France). Prolapse severity will be evaluated using the POP-Q system. In order to evaluate the patient's quality of life, the validated PFDI and the PFIQ questionnaires will be used preoperatively and during follow-up, as well as a validated questionnaire on sexual problems. The difference on early post-operative pain should be 30% (40% for the sacrospinous suspension and 10% for the posterior IVS). Then the estimated number of patient is 40 in each arm.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Early post-operative pain evaluated by a visual analogic pain the next day after the operation.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. - Peri-operative morbidity

  2. - Patient satisfaction

  3. - Quality of life

  4. - Post-operative sexuality

  5. - Anatomical cure rate on vaginal vault support

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing IVS and Sacrospinofixation in people with Vaginal Prolapse, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Early post-operative pain evaluated by a visual analogic pain the next day after the operation.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Mar 2015.
