About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center, Prospective, Open-label, Randomized Study of the Safety and Efficacy of BondEase™ Topical Skin Adhesive for the Closure of Traumatic Lacerations and Surgical Incisions

To demonstrate that BondEase™ and conventional wound closure devices (CWCD) are the same in terms of cosmesis (appearance) of the repaired wound when these devices are used for closure of surgical and traumatic wounds .

To demonstrate safety of BondEase™.

Read the detailed description

This is a two-phase, multi-center, prospective, randomized, parallel-group study, in which a total of 153 subjects (102 in the BondEase™ group and 51 in the CWCD group) with traumatic lacerations and incisions will be enrolled. Overall, eligible subjects will be randomized in a pre-defined 2:1 ratio to BondEase™ skin adhesive or CWCD.

In Part 1 of the study 30 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio (BondEase™ : CWCD). This part of the study is designed to assess the feasibility and validate use of the device. Pediatric subjects younger than age 18 will not be included in this part of the trial. The results from these 30 subjects will be compiled and submitted to FDA for review and approval prior to proceeding with Part 2. Part 2 of the study will only be initiated after FDA indicates it is acceptable to begin. In Part 2 of the study a total of 123 subjects will be randomized, of which 82 subjects will be randomized to the BondEase™ group and 41 subjects to the CWCD group. This will result in 102 subjects in the BondEase™ group and 51 subjects in the CWCD group across the both parts of the trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. 100% Wound Apposition at 10 Days

    Percentage of subjects in whom 100% wound edge apposition is achieved at 10 days (±3 days) post-procedure.

    Measured: 10 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Optimal Cosmetic Outcome at 28 Days (Score of 6)

    Incidence of wounds with an optimal cosmetic outcome (score of 6) at 28 days.

    One point was scored for the absence of, and no point was scored for the presence of, any of the following six items:

    • Stepoff of borders (edges not on the same plane)
    • Contour irregularities (wrinkled skin near wound)
    • Margin separation (gap between sides)
    • Edge inversion (wound not properly everted)
    • Excessive distortion (swelling or edema or infection)
    • Poor overall appearance.

    The overall cosmesis score was determined by adding the scores of each individual item. An overall score of six was considered an optimal score outcome. Any score below six was considered suboptimal.

    Measured: 28 days

  2. ≥ 50% Wound Apposition at 10 Days

    Incidence of wounds ≥50% apposed (10 ± 3 days)

    Measured: 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BondEase and CWCD in people with Traumatic Lacerations or Surgical Incisions, run by OptMed, Inc. at 6 sites 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 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Nov 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

100% Wound Apposition at 10 Days (time frame: 10 days). 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 9 Jan 2017.
