About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Blinded, Inpatient Study to Investigate the PK, Relative Bioavailability and Safety of 2 Doses of XaraColl (200 and 300 mg Bupivacaine HCl) Compared to Bupivacaine HCl Infiltration (150 mg) After Open Laparotomy Hernioplasty

Assess the pharmacokinetic profile of 2 doses of the XaraColl® implant after open laparotomy hernioplasty and assess the relative bioavailability of Xaracoll compared to a local bupivacaine infiltration.

Read the detailed description

Inguinal hernioplasty is a common surgery. Common surgical methods used include laparoscopic and open placement of synthetic mesh. Managing postoperative pain and preventing morbidity after open mesh hernioplasty remain considerable medical challenges.

Bupivacaine is a local anesthetic (pain medicine) that has an established safety profile. Collagen is a protein that is found in all mammals. The Xaracoll implant is a thin flat sponge made out of collagen that comes from cow tendons and contains bupivacaine. When inserted into a surgical site, the collagen breaks down and bupivacaine is released at the surgical site to provide postoperative pain control.

This study will assess the pharmacokinetic profile of 2 doses of the XaraColl implant after open laparotomy hernioplasty and assess the relative bioavailability of the Xaracoll implant compared to a local bupivacaine infiltration.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 2 100mg Xaracoll implants, 3 100mg Xaracoll implants and 150mg Bupivacaine HCl injection in people with Hernioplasty, run by Innocoll at 5 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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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 23 Aug 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?

Cmax (time frame: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 96 hours after surgery.). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2020.
