What participants receive

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

  • Intrahepatic division of the right hepatic vein.Procedure or surgery

    Ligation and division of the entrance of the right hepatic vein into the suprarenal cava vein are done at the end of transection of the liver parenchyma with CUSA.

  • Extrahepatic vein divisionProcedure or surgery

    Standard surgical procedure with extrahepatic ligation/division of the right hepatic vein prior to parenchymal division with CUSA.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intraoperative bloodloss

    Measured: Intraoperative time (in minutes) for the division of the liver parenchyma

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Operation time, postoperative complication rate

    Measured: Total time in minutes spent in theater, in hospital stay in days (on an average less than 30 days), total complication rate during hospital stay (on an average less than 30 days), surgical complications during in hospital stay (on an average<30days).

  2. postoperative complication rate

    Measured: in hospital stay in days (on an average <30 days), total complication rate during hospital stay (on an average <30 days), surgical complications during in hospital stay (on an average <30 days).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intrahepatic division of the right hepatic vein. and Extrahepatic vein division in people with Reduction of Peroperative Blood Loss During Liver Resection, run by Karolinska University Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 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 Sweden. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Intraoperative bloodloss (time frame: Intraoperative time (in minutes) for the division of the liver parenchyma). 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 20 Feb 2017.
