About this study
Official title: The Use of An Acellular Dermal Matrix Sling in a Two-stage Breast REconstruciton After Mastectomy: A Double-blinded Randomized Trial
We propose to evaluate the question of whether there is a significant difference between the traditional method of serratus flap tissue expander reconstruction and the acellular matrix method.
Read the detailed description
We propose a double blinded, randomized study of 60 women comparing outcomes which will include postoperative pain, complication rates and aesthetic outcome as assessed by the patient and a plastic surgeon blinded to the method of reconstruction.
- Conditions
- Breast Cancer
- Being tested
- DermaMatrix, standard of care tissue expander breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomy
- Medical subject headings
- Breast Neoplasms
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
DermaMatrixProcedure or surgery
Also called tissue expander breast reconstruction after mastectomy
experimental group with DermaMatrix acellular dermis over tissue expanders in addition to skin/soft tissue and muscle to allow for more natural appearing breast and prevention of complications
standard of care tissue expander breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomyProcedure or surgery
Also called standard of care using skin/soft tissue and muscle coverage of tissue expander for breast reconstruction after mastectomy without acellular dermal matrix
standard of care using skin/soft tissue and muscle coverage of tissue expander for breast reconstruction after mastectomy without acellular dermal matrix
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| DermaMatrix | Experimental | experimental group with DermaMatrix acellular dermis over tissue expanders in addition to skin/soft tissue and muscle to allow for more natural appearing breast and prevention of complications Receives: Procedure: DermaMatrix |
| Standard of care | Active comparator | standard of care using skin/soft tissue and muscle coverage of tissue expander for breast reconstruction after mastectomy without acellular dermal matrix Receives: Procedure: standard of care tissue expander breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomy |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Patient Satisfaction With the Procedure
Measured: one year from time of operation
Post Surgical Infection
Number of participants with post surgical infection
Measured: 4 weeks

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

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?
