Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • All patients admitted to HPB unit and schudeled for major liver or pancreatic resections with suspected venous invasion. Venous invasion is suspected on CT scan (vein narrowing or disappearance of the fat plane between the vein and the tumor) performed within 1 month of surgical resection. Informed consent will be obtained and the parietal peritoneum will be used as a substitute graft for resection-reconstruction in these patients if intra-operative exploration confirmed this venous invasion

Who cannot join

  • Patients who refuse to participate and patients with suspected peritoneal carcinomatosis or if intra-operative exploration confirmed the presence of peritoneal carcinomatosis

About this study

Official title: To Evaluate the Safety and Outcome of the Parietal Peritoneum as a Substitute Graft for Venous Reconstruction in Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery

To evaluate the safety and outcome of the parietal peritoneum for venous reconstruction HPB surgery. Although the parietal peritoneum had already been used and published for the reconstruction of the vena cava, however this one was never described or described in HPB surgery

Read the detailed description

Improvements in surgical techniques, perioperative management and effective chemotherapy regimens, have increased the resectability of malignant hepatobiliary and pancreatic tumors when associated with vascular invasion. Therefore, simultaneous vascular resection is increasingly required to obtain an adequate resection margin and improve patient definite survival. Although most vascular resection associated with pancreatectomy can be reconstructed by simple venorraphy or end-to-end anastomosis, a segmental or lateral vacular graft (VG) can be necessary in 8-12 % of cases. Vascular reconstruction can be planned preoperatively if the vascular invasion is evident and an appropriate VG can be prepared. Differents sources of VG are available including autogenous veins , synthetic such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) , cryopreserved and veins from the resected liver. However the decision to perform vascular resection may be made during dissection due to vascular invasion or injury and even occasionnally taken while the mesentericoportal vein (MPV) or vena cava (VC) are occluded. In this emergency situation, an urgent and easily available graft is necessary to prevent prolonged ischemia. The difficulty of anticipating the need for these vascular resections during HPB surgery, has lead certain authors including those in our group to use either the veins from the resected liver, the umbilical vein or the parietal peritoneum (PP) for vena cava reconstruction. The aim of our study is to evaluate the safety and outcome of the parietal peritoneum as a substitute patch for venous reconstruction during HPB surgery in emergency and elective situations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and venous patency

    The primary outcome of this study will be the safety and venous patency. Safety means "to see if the parietal peritoneum is rigid and there is no tearing of bleeding in the reconstructed area, related to venous pressure", this safety will be assessed clinically (exteriorized bleeding from the reconstructed zone and on CT scan to search for local hematoma). Patency will be assessed by regular CT scan performed on postoperative day 8,30,90 and 120. On CT scan, this evaluation will include the degree on venous stenosis (0%, <25%, 25%-75%, >75%, thrombosis) compared to non reconstructed vein, the presence of thrombosis with collateral venous circulation or venous enlargement in the reconstructed area

    Measured: Up to 4 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Long-term venous Patency

    The venous latency will be assessed at 6 months of the surgical resection and the assessment with be done by CT scan in order to study the degree of venous stenosis, the presence or not of thrombosis or collateral venous circulation and venous enlargement.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing venous reconstruction with the parietal peritoneum in people with Safety and Availability, run by Beaujon Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 1 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 24 Apr 2014. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Safi Dokmak, MD (0033140875797, safi.dokmak@bjn.aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and venous patency (time frame: Up to 4 months). 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 NCT02121886, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Apr 2014.
