About this study

Official title: Assessment of MonoPlus® Suture Material for Anastomosis in the Gastrointestinal Tract. A Prospective, Multi-centric, International, Single-arm, Observational Study in Daily Practice

The primary aim of this study is to collect clinical data on the performance of MonoPlus® suture applied in routine clinical practice. Diverse parameters are to be used to assess the safety and efficacy of MonoPlus® suture for gastrointestinal anastomosis construction.

This study has been designed to implement an action within the framework of a proactive Post Market Clinical Follow up (PMCF) activity.

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days after surgery), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  9. Comparison of Postoperative Stenosis at different timepoints in postoperative course

    Comparison of postoperative Stenosis rate at different postoperative examinations

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days after surgery), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  10. Comparison of Reoperation rate due to an anastomosis leakage at different timepoints in postoperative course

    Comparison of Reoperation rate due to an anastomosis leakage at different postoperative examinations

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days after surgery), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  11. Comparison of Mortality rate at different timepoints in postoperative course

    Comparison of postoperative Mortality rate at different postoperative examinations

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days after surgery), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  12. Comparison of Stoma rate at different timepoints in postoperative course

    Comparison of postoperative Stoma rate at different postoperative examinations

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days after surgery), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  13. Length of the overall postoperative hospital stay

    Number of days between date of surgery and date of discharge

    Measured: until discharge (approximately 10 days postoperative)

  14. Length of the postoperative stay in intensive care unit

    Number of days the patient has to stay in the intensive care unit after the intervention

    Measured: until discharge (approximately 10 days postoperative)

  15. Duration to perform the anastomosis

    Time in Minutes the surgeon needs to perform the anastomosis

    Measured: intraoperatively

  16. Course of Health Status

    EQ-5D-5L is a standardized measure of health status developed by EuroQol Group in order to provide a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. EQ-5D-5L is designed for self-completion by respondents and it takes only a few minutes to complete. Instructions to respondents are included in the questionnaire. EQ-5D-5L consists of 2 pages - descriptive system and the EQ visual Analogue scale (EQ-VAS). The descriptive system comprises 5 dimensions (mobility, self care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression). Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The EQ VAS records the respondents self rated health on a 20 cm vertical , visual analogue scale with endpoints labelled "the best health you can imagine" and " the worst health you can imagine"

    Measured: until 6 months postoperative

  17. Satisfaction of the patient with the surgery

    This parameter will be noted using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) which state "0" at one end representing "no pain" and "100" at the opposite end representing "maximal pain". The values are compared over postoperative period.

    Measured: at discharge (approximately 10 days postoperative), 1 month, and 6 months after surgery

  18. Assessment of suture material handling parameters

    Assessment of the handling of the suture material intra-operatively using a questionnaire including different dimensions (knot security, tensile strength, knot run down, stiffness) with 5 evaluation levels (excellent, very good, good, satisfied, poor).

    Measured: intraoperatively

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted23 Mar 2021
  2. Study startJul 2022 (estimated)
  3. Primary completionDec 2023 (estimated)
  4. Study completionDec 2023 (estimated)

Why it stopped: The GASTROMO study has been stopped early before enrolling its first patient because the results of our primary endpoint would have been inconsistent. The variability of the leakage rate between all anastomosis included in the study was overly high.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors and Gastrointestinal Neoplasms, run by Aesculap AG at 2 sites in Spain.

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 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Spain. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Comparison of anastomosis leakage rate at different timepoints in postoperative course (time frame: until 6 months after surgery). 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 5 Apr 2023.
