Study groupRoleWhat they receive
FloSeal groupExperimentalThis group will undergo appropriate cancer surgery for each patient with pelvic lymph node dissection +/- para-aortic lymph node dissection. At the completion of lymph node dissection, 2 vials of Floseal will be applied to each lymph node area.
Receives: Drug: FloSeal application
No FloSeal groupNo interventionAll surgical procedures of control group is the same with study group except that Floseal is not applicated in control group.

What is being measured

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

  3. Postoperative hospital stay

    Measured: within 2 weeks after surgery

  4. Postoperative bleeding incidence

    Measured: within 2 weeks after surgery

  5. Postoperative complication incidence

    Measured: within 1 month after surgery

  6. Quality of life

    Measured: within 1 year after surgery

  7. 2-year disease free survival and overall survival

    Measured: 2 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FloSeal application in people with Gynecologic Cancer and Cervical Cancer, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2017. 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 South Korea. 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 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?

Incidence of lymphocele an lymphatic ascites (time frame: within 1 year after surgery). 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 31 May 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
