What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MatriStem PSMDevice

    All esophageal anastomoses will be reinforced circumferentially with ACell MatriStem PSM.

Study groups in NCT01970306
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Surgical interventionExperimentalPatients will undergo standard resection and gastrointestinal anastomosis and will then have reinforcement of the anastomosis with MatriStem PSM. Patients undergoing esophagectomy, PG or TG will be evaluated with one routine postoperative contrast swallow study at post-operative day #4-10.
Receives: Device: MatriStem PSM

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Anastomotic Leak.

    Anastomotic leak will be assessed by clinical observation and one postoperative contrast study (thin-barium Gastrografin or Omnipaque swallow)

    Measured: up to 10 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Stricture Formation Clinically and by Determination of Dysphagia Score

    Patients will be evaluated in the outpatient clinic and will be assigned a dysphagia score from 0-4 by the RSA. Patients reporting symptoms consistent with stricture will be evaluated with radiographic contrast swallow study or endoscopy.

    Measured: 90 days postoperatively

  2. Number of Participants Who Developed Anastomotic Stenosis

    If during the follow up period, patients report any symptoms suggestive of anastomotic stricture, a contrast study (esophagram) or endoscopy will be obtained at that time to evaluate for stricture. These tests will be performed as per standard postoperative assessment by the surgeon.

    Measured: 90 days post op

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MatriStem PSM in people with Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 4 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 4 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 3 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Nov 2023). 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?

Number of Participants With Anastomotic Leak. (time frame: up to 10 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01970306, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Nov 2023.
