  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects who are diagnosed with a ventral or incisional hernia that require a component separation repair with the use of a biological graft.

Who may be able to join

  • Be able to undergo study procedures.
  • Have signed an Informed Consent form (ICF).
  • Be diagnosed with a ventral or incisional hernia that cannot be closed primarily in the opinion of the investigator.
  • Requires a component separation repair with the use of a biological graft.

Who cannot join

  • Subject is participating in another device or drug study.
  • Subject has a life expectancy less than 4 years at the time of enrollment.
  • Any condition in the opinion of the investigator that would preclude the use of the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft, or preclude the subject from completing the follow-up requirements.
  • Any subject with a defect the surgeon feels he/she cannot fully close.
  • Subjects with a BMI > 50.
  • Subjects with connective tissue disorders.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-Center Study of Complex Ventral Hernia Repair Utilizing the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft With Component Separation

This will be an observational study designed to collect early, short- and long-term clinical outcomes of the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft for complex ventral hernia repair. Subjects will be expected to attend follow up visits at 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months following surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. To estimate the hernia recurrence rate of complex ventral hernias post repair with the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft utilizing the component separation technique with several different tissue plane placements of the graft for up to 24 months post surgery.

    Any hernia which is identified or confirmed by the investigator in approximately the same position as the hernia repair during any follow up visit after a XenMatrix™ surgical graft has been placed will be considered a recurrent hernia.

    Measured: 2 Years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To assess perioperative, short-term and long-term complications in subjects with complex hernias repaired with XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft and component separation.

    Procedural and device related AEs collected from surgery until 24 months post surgery.

    Measured: 2 Years

  2. To assess the procedural time for XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft placement with component separation.

    Procedure time will be defined as beginning when the investigator makes the initial skin incision and ending when the skin closure is completed (skin to skin).

    Measured: Day 0

  3. To assess changes in subject quality of life (QOL) post repair with a XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft with component separation.

    Changes in QOL will be assessed from baseline to 24 months utilizing the Short Form-36 (SF-36) version 2.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. To assess clinical outcomes based on the tissue plane placement of the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft.

    Subjects who have their grafts placed in different tissue planes will have their recurrence rate, complication type and frequency examined to determine if there are any gross differences.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hernia, run by C. R. Bard at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2013. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decision, not safety related.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

To estimate the hernia recurrence rate of complex ventral hernias post repair with the XenMatrix™ Surgical Graft utilizing the component separation technique with several different tissue plane placements of the graft for up to 24 months post surgery. (time frame: 2 Years). 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 15 Jan 2013.
