About this study

Official title: RESTIT : Evaluation of Resorbable Osteosynthesis Devices Versus Titanium in Maxillofacial Surgery - A Prospective Randomized Trial in Therapeutic Strategy

Primary objective : To evaluate the quality of fractures setting and osteotomy of the facial massif osteosynthesised with resorbable device PLLA/PGA compared with usual Titanium plates.

Secondary objective :

Read more
  • To evaluate the resorbable device ergonomy versus Titanium.
  • To evaluate the clinical tolerance of resorbable device versus Titanium.

Hypothesis :

Osteosynthesis with resorbable device demonstrates a non inferiority success probability regarding the success observed in osteosynthesis with Titanium, with a less important probability of re-operation.

Study duration : 14 months for each patient.

Study treatment :

  • Group I : Resorbable device PLLA/PGA.
  • Group II : Titanium device.

Study visits :

  • Screening visit - Baseline with randomization and surgery - Day1 - Day 21 - Day 45(Traumatology)/Day 90 (orthognatic) - Month 6,12 and 14.

Randomization : Stratification by centres, mono or bimaxillar surgery and traumatologic or orthognatic criteria.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Titanium deviceDevice

What is being measured

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

  1. The quality of fractures setting and osteotomy of the facial massif osteosynthesised with resorbable device PLLA/PGA will be evaluated by the notion of unperfect resuts.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Evaluation of device ergonomy :

  2. The operative time of each surgery will be monitored, to compare operative duration of operations ; the only variable will be the osteosynthesis method.

  3. Clinical tolerance of the devices

  4. pain (Visual Analogic Scale),

  5. local inflammation,

  6. scar disunion,

  7. infection,

  8. subcutaneous or submucous palpation of the plates.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resorbable device PLLA/PGA and Titanium device in people with Maxillo-Facial Surgery, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 5 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2007. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Pierre BOULETREAU, MD (33 4 78 86 19 36, pierre.bouletreau@chu-lyon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The quality of fractures setting and osteotomy of the facial massif osteosynthesised with resorbable device PLLA/PGA will be evaluated by the notion of unperfect resuts.. 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 Apr 2007.
