About this study

To compare the incidence of lymphocele in Endometrial cancer patients with thrombin gel matrix used and not used during pelvic lymph node dissection.

Read the detailed description

Pelvic lymph node dissection is the most accurate staging tool to determine lymph node involvement in endometrial cancer. Lymphoceles developed after surgery can cause serious morbidity, additional costs and delays in chemotherapy or radiotherapy. In this study, conventional pelvic lymphadenectomy will be compared with thrombin gel matrix application after pelvic lymphadenectomy. Our goal is to prospectively assess the lymphostatic effect of thrombin gel matrix in endometrial cancer patients undergoing pelvic lymph node dissection.

Being tested
Thrombi-Gel, Conventional Pelvic lymphadenectomy
Medical subject headings
Lymphocele, Endometrial Neoplasms

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of pelvic lymphocele

    Frequency pelvic lymphocele at post-operative 2th month

    Measured: post-operative 2th month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Volume of radiographic lymphoceles

    Measured: post-operative 2th month

  2. duration of postoperative drainage catheter

    duration of postoperative drainage catheter

    Measured: up to post-operative 1 week

  3. Postoperative drain amount (ml: milliliters)

    Postoperative drain amount (ml: milliliters)

    Measured: with 1 weeks after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Thrombi-Gel and Conventional Pelvic lymphadenectomy in people with Lymphocele and Lymphocele After Surgical Procedure, run by Kocaeli University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 7 Jul 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Frequency of pelvic lymphocele (time frame: post-operative 2th month). 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 NCT04205864, 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 7 Jul 2020.
