About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Prepectoral Breast Reconstruction With Braxon Dermal Matrix: a Randomized Controlled Study

The study plans to compare conventional submuscular reconstruction with definitive implant and muscle sparing reconstruction with definitive implant in selected patients. The two techniques are compared in terms of patient quality of life and satisfaction; patient related outcomes, reconstruction morbidity, early and late complications are also investigated.

Read the detailed description

The study plans to compare conventional submuscular reconstruction with definitive implant and muscle sparing reconstruction with definitive implant in selected patients. The two techniques are compared in terms of patient quality of life and satisfaction; patient related outcomes, reconstruction morbidity, early and late complications are also investigated.

The study plans to collect robust data to support the prepectoral implant placement and complete coverage of implant with acellular dermal matrix in the clinical practice.

Consequently, the project plans to move toward evidence-based medicine in breast reconstruction, avoiding marketing influences and surgeon experience as the sole source of evidence.

What is being measured

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

  1. Satisfaction assessed by the BREAST-Q

    The BREAST-Q survey is used to detect differences in patient satisfaction among the groups

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Immediate complications rate

    Compare post operative complications

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Short term complications rate

    Compare short term post operative complications

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Long term complications rate

    Compare long term post operative complications

    Measured: 24 months

  4. Percentage of capsular contracture

    Compare overall aesthetic outcomes (percentage of capsular contracture) using standardized photographs assessed by independent blinded observers

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prepectoral reconstruction and Submuscolar reconstruction in people with Breast Cancer, run by European Institute of Oncology at 1 site in Italy.

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 11 inclusion and 2 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 24 Aug 2023. 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?

Satisfaction assessed by the BREAST-Q (time frame: 1 year). 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 24 Aug 2023.
