About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Phase IV Study to Compare Bioseal Versus Standard of Care as an Adjunct to Hemostasis in Elective Brain Tumor Surgery

The objective of this study is to observe the clinical utility and performance of Bioseal when used as an adjunct to hemostasis versus Standard of Care (SoC) in elective meningioma surgery.

Being tested
Bioseal Fibrin Sealant, Standard of Care (SoC)

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Standard of Care (SoC)OtherStandard of Care (SoC) include any active or inactive adjunctive treatment to hemostasis methods currently used based on each surgeons surgical practice except for the use of other fibrin sealants.

Bioseal Fibrin SealantExperimentalA porcine-derived fibrin sealant consisting of thrombin and fibrinogen
Receives: Biological: Bioseal Fibrin Sealant

What is being measured

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

  1. Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 6 Minutes Following Treatment Application. Hemostasis is Defined as no Detectable Bleeding at the TBS.

    The percentage of participants with hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 6 minutes following start of treatment application. Hemostasis is defined as no detectable bleeding at the TBS.

    Measured: Intra-operative, 6 minutes following randomization

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Hemostasis at the TBS at 3 Minutes Following Treatment Application

    The percentage of participants with hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 3 minutes following start of treatment application. Hemostasis was defined as no detectable bleeding at the TBS.

    Measured: Intra-operative, 3 minutes following randomization

  2. Incidence of Neurosurgical Complications, Central Nervous System Events and Surgical Wound Complications.

    Measured: Through 30-day follow-up

  3. Incidence of Potential Bleeding-related Adverse Events

    Measured: Through 30-day follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bioseal Fibrin Sealant in people with Hemostasis and Meningioma Surgery, run by Ethicon, Inc. at 7 sites in China.

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 8 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 26 Feb 2018. 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 China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 26 Feb 2018). 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?

Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS) at 6 Minutes Following Treatment Application. Hemostasis is Defined as no Detectable Bleeding at the TBS. (time frame: Intra-operative, 6 minutes following randomization). 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 26 Feb 2018.
