About this study

MOBIDERM® demonstrated his interest through clinical studies on the treatment of lower or upper limb lymphedema (Mestre et al 2017; Quéré et al. 2014). This CE (Conformity European)-marking device is well established both in ambulatory and hospitalisation. Nevertheless, the mechanism of action of this device had never been confirmed and no experimental clinical studies had been performed. The hypothesis is that the MOBIDERM system creates a pressure differential between the contact zone underneath the foam cubes composing the system and their surrounding area, leading to a shear effect on the subcutaneous tissues treated.

The aim of this study is thus to assess the mechanism of action of MOBIDERM on the lymphatic system by evaluating quantitative and qualitative effects of this medical device on lymphatic system, oedema volume and cutaneous parameters in 10 lymphoedema patients during their hospitalisation for reduction phase.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MOBIDERM® autofit : auto-adjustable compression stockingDevice

    The experimental protocol will require 2 visits during usual reduction phase performed at the hospital (5 days of hospitalization).

    Visit 1 will be performed the first day of hospitalization and will consist of inclusion visit and some evaluations (lymphoscintigraphy, edema volume, cutaneous characteristics).

    Between visit 1 (D1) and visit 2 (D3), patients will wear Mobiderm Autofit continually.

    Visit 2 will be performed the third day of hospitalization and will consist of evaluations (lymphoscintigraphy, edema volume, cutaneous characteristics, satisfaction survey).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline extraction rates at 3 days after wearing MOBIDERM

    Assess the difference of extraction rate (%) in different areas (ankle, upper and lower middle third of the leg, knee, calf) by lymphoscintigraphy performed at D1 and D3 after wearing MOBIDERM®

    Measured: Day : 3

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change of vascular lymphatic activity between D1 and D3

    Assess change of vascular lymphatic activity based on qualitative data (activity YES/NO ; quality of activity : usual - semi usual - unusual) obtained during dynamic acquisition of lymphoscintigraphy from baseline to D3

    Measured: Day : 3

  2. Change of lymphatic vascular flow between D1 and D3

    Assess change of amplitude vascular flow : important - medium- weak ; and of flow velocity : normal, slow, inexistent from baseline to D3

    Measured: Day : 3

  3. Change on lymphatic system between D1 and D3 : short term effect

    Assess change on lymphatic system from baseline to D3 (short term effect) , based on quantitative data : number of lympho node fixation ; and qualitative data: lympho node fixation intensity : important - medium - low ; tortuous appearance of the lymphatic vessels : YES/NO ; presence of collateral : YES/NO ; presence of dermal reflux : YES/NO ; presence of popliteal ganglion : YES/NO.

    Measured: Day : 3

  4. Change on lymphatic system between H2 and H4 : immediate effect

    Assess change on lymphatic system from baseline to 2 and 4 hours : immediate effect, based on quantitative data : number of lympho node fixation ; and qualitative data: lympho node fixation intensity : important - medium - low ; tortuous appearance of the lymphatic vessels : YES/NO ; presence of collateral : YES/NO ; presence of dermal reflux : YES/NO ; presence of popliteal ganglion : YES/NO.

    Measured: Hours : 2 and 4

  5. Lymphedema volume reduction between D1 and D3

    Leg perimeters (cm) of 7 part of leg will be measured (ankle, patella, +10cm +20cm +30cm and -10cm -20cm and -30cm of patella). Based on truncated cone formula, volume (mL) of each leg will be calculated. These volumes will be compared between D1 and D3 in order to assess lymphedema volume reduction.

    Measured: Days : 1 and 3

  6. Skin condition evolution between D1 and D3

    Skin condition will be assessed by cutaneous ultrasound scan (skin thickness (mm) , skin echogenicity (hypoechogenicity - isoechogenicity, hyperechogenicity) , oedema distribution in the dermis (superficial dermis - deep dermis - overall of dermis -hypodermis and dermis) performed on 3 areas : ankle, leg and thigh. Skin condition evolution will be assessed at D1 and D3.

    Measured: Days : 1 and 3

  7. Cutaneous suppleness between D1 and D3

    Cutaneous suppleness evolution is assessed with a cutometer. Cutaneous suppleness is described by skin elasticity, elastic capacity and viscoelasticity. Cutometer measurements are expressed in millimetre (skin deformation, skin relaxation, skin extensibility) and will be presented as quantitative data.

    Measured: Days : 1 and 3

  8. Number of type of serious and non-serious Adverse Device Effects

    Number and type of serious and non-serious Adverse Device Effects (ADE) will be reported during the study

    Measured: Day : 3

  9. Satisfaction regarding MOBIDERM

    Satisfaction is measured by a satisfaction questionnaire wrote specifically for the study. This questionnaire is focused on positioning the product, comfort, esthetic and global satisfaction.

    Measured: Day : 3

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

Change from baseline extraction rates at 3 days after wearing MOBIDERM (time frame: Day : 3). 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 NCT04252690, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 26 Apr 2023.
