About this study

Official title: Prevention of Incisional Hernia With Prophylactic Mesh in Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy. A Multicentre, Prospective, Randomised Controlled Trial

Evaluate the effectiveness of mesh reinforcement in high-risk patients to prevent incisional hernia.

Read the detailed description

Based on the hypothesis that oncological cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is associated with an increased risk of developing Incisional Hernia in the postoperative period, with an expected incidence of 50% at 24 months, we designed a prospective, multicenter and randomized clinical study to demonstrate the utility of the meshes in the prevention of Incisional Hernia, hoping to reduce the incidence to 15% at 24 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prophylactic Mesh in people with Incisional Hernia, run by Hospital Universitario Fundación Alcorcón.

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 16 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Rate of Incisional Hernia (time frame: four years). 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 May 2019.
