Trial summary

Autologous fat grafting, also known as lipofilling, is a surgical technique consisting in the processing and transfer of adipose tissue from one area in our organism (hips, thighs) to region which in need of reconstructive and aesthetic correction. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Multicentic Retrospective Evaluation of Risks in Mammary Carcinoma Relapse in Patients With Mammary Reconstruction and Autologous Fat Grafting

Autologous fat grafting, also known as lipofilling, is a surgical technique consisting in the processing and transfer of adipose tissue from one area in our organism (hips, thighs) to region which in need of reconstructive and aesthetic correction. The technique is frequently used after radical or conservative mammary surgery, aiming to achieve better aesthetic results, reduce pain induced by both surgery and radiotherapy. The scientific community was widely involved in the debate regarding the use of mesenchymal/stem cells in a patient with high risk of tumor progression due to their elevated proliferative profile. This study aims to retrospectively evaluate the oncological safety in the use of lipofilling in patients who underwent oncological and reconstructive treatment in our Institute.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Oct 2019. 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 Italy. 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?

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?

Oncological safety of autologous fat grafting (time frame: Two 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 30 Oct 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
