About this study

Official title: The Safety and Effectiveness of DuraSorb® for Reinforcement in Patients Undergoing Prosthetic Breast Reconstruction

This study compares outcomes of prospective mesh-based breast reconstructions to historical control breast reconstructions with no mesh.

Read the detailed description

Plastic surgeons have a variety of biologic and synthetic mesh available for use. However, no mesh has adequately evaluated safety and effectiveness for FDA approval or clearance for use in breast reconstruction. Therefore, no mesh is an appropriate comparator for a randomized clinical study.

This multi-center, prospective, clinical study with matched historical controls of total submuscular 2-stage breast reconstructions with no mesh will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of DuraSorb® monofilament surgical mesh when implanted in subjects undergoing 2-stage breast reconstruction.

Women scheduled for mastectomy and immediate 2-stage breast reconstruction will sign informed consent and satisfy eligibility criteria prior to the first stage of surgery and DuraSorb® implantation.

Maximum study follow-up is through one year after definitive reconstruction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite Clinical Success (CCS)

    This outcome measure is a combination of effectiveness and safety components. CCS is defined as intraoperative fill volume of at least 45% of the total expander size and the absence of expander or implant removal for cause or major cosmetic revision between the DuraSorb Treatment Arm and historical controls.

    Measured: 12 Month Follow-Up

  2. Local Complications of Breast Reconstruction

    The rates of a set of breast reconstruction complications (i.e. infection, serum, necrosis, etc.) will be measured between the DuraSorb Treatment Arm and historical controls.

    Measured: 12 Month Follow-Up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DuraSorb® in people with Breast Reconstruction, run by Surgical Innovation Associates, Inc. at 7 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 4 inclusion and 12 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 18 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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?

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?

Composite Clinical Success (CCS) (time frame: 12 Month Follow-Up). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Apr 2024.
