About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-Center, Randomized, Open Label Controlled Trial Using a Dissolved Oxygen Enriched Dressing in Nipple-sparing Mastectomy

This study will evaluate the effect of OxyGenesys Dissolved Oxygen Dressing in wound complication rates of the nipple areolar complex after a nipple sparing mastectomy.

Read the detailed description

This study will recruit women who are undergoing a bilateral mastectomy for either cancer or a positive BRCA gene. Women will be randomized to a different treatment per breast. One breast will receive the OxyGenesys dressing and the other will receive the standard gauze dressing. The study will evaluate wound complication rates and compare the two treatments.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the Effects of OxyGenesys Dissolved Oxygen Dressing in Wound Complication Rates of the Nipple Areolar Complex Post Nipple-sparing Mastectomy

    Wound Complication Rate

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To Evaluate Scar Formation 30 Days Post Nipple-sparing Mastectomy

    Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale - range = 1 - 10. "1" is best condition ("normal skin") and "10" is worst condition ("worst scar imaginable"). The scale is used to assess each of six different wound characteristics, including vascularity, pigmentation, thickness, relief, pliability, and surface area. The means of these combined scores and their respective standard deviations are reported for each study group. The range of the final evaluation score, based on the collective evaluation of each of the six wound characteristics is "6" (if each of the six scores equals "1") to "60" (if each of the six scores equals "10").

    Measured: 30 days post nipple-sparing mastectomy

  2. To Assess Pain Using the Numerical Rating Scale

    Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) - range = 0 - 10. "0" corresponds to "no pain" and "10" indicates "worst pain imaginable". The means of these scores and their respective standard deviations are reported for each study group.

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OxyGenesys Dissolved Oxygen Dressing and Standard Gauze Dressing in people with Breast Cancer and Reconstructive Breast Surgery, run by Halyard Health at 7 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 5 inclusion and 7 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 17 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 7 Apr 2015). 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?

Evaluate the Effects of OxyGenesys Dissolved Oxygen Dressing in Wound Complication Rates of the Nipple Areolar Complex Post Nipple-sparing Mastectomy (time frame: 30 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 17 Feb 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
