ControlActive comparatorControl group will receive standard of care closure of stapled anastomosis in colectomy procedure without Sylys® Surgical Sealant.
Receives: Procedure: Stapled Anastomosis Colectomy Procedure

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety of Sylys® Surgical Sealant: Number of Anastomosis-Related Complications

    Number of subjects with anastomosis-related complications

    Measured: 26 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Sealant Application Evaluation Questionnaire

    Questionnaire documenting the ability to apply the sealant adequately to the anastomosis

    Measured: At time of device application (during surgery)

  2. Reduction in Anastomotic Leaks

    Comparison of anastomotic leak rate across all subjects

    Measured: 26 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sylys® Surgical Sealant and Stapled Anastomosis Colectomy Procedure in people with Colorectal and Ileorectal Anastomosis and Colocolic and Ileocolic Anastomosis, run by Cohera Medical, Inc. at 16 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 6 inclusion and 23 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Resource Constraints). 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?

Safety of Sylys® Surgical Sealant: Number of Anastomosis-Related Complications (time frame: 26 Weeks). 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 16 Aug 2018.
