About this study

The aim of the study will be to compare the laparoscopic pectopexy (LP) and laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) techniques in the management of uterine sparing apical prolapse (POP-Q >2) at 1 year and yearly up to 2 years.

Read the detailed description

Primary and secondary endpoints:

Primary outcome measures will be the subjective cure of prolapse ("absence or presence of a bulge in the vagina"), objective success with anatomic absence of advanced prolapse at POP-Q sites Ba, C and Bp defined as less than 1 cm individually and as a total.

Secondary outcome measures include all other parameters such as perioperative outcomes, patient satisfaction, quality of life outcomes, complications, scores on questionnaires, and reoperations.

The study protocol will be submitted to the institutional review boards of every participating study site and written informed consent will be obtained from all participants on enrolment.

Project design: The investigators will perform an international multicentre single-blind randomized controlled trial with participating our tertiary referral hospital.

What is being measured

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

  1. Subjective cure rate of prolapse

    Provided by the patient's feeling of the "Absence of a bulge in the vagina"

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  2. Objective success

    Defined as anatomic absence of advanced prolapse at POP-Q sites Ba, C and Bp defined as less than 1 cm individually and as a total

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Prolapse-related Quality of life

    This will be assessed using a validated questionnaire (Prolapse Quality of Life questionnaire P-QoL) The questionnaire contains 9 domains. Each answer of the patient will have values that range between 1 to 4 or 1 to 5 for the 1st question only). (1 very good 4/5 very poor). There is no overall score. A symptomatic woman might have only one domain impaired and another one might have all domains impaired. We consider both of them symptomatic but in different or same aspects of quality of life. To differentiate different domains, it is important for the decision of our surgery (we will be careful in shortening and narrowing a vagina of a woman who had only a preoperative high (impaired) Personal relationships domain score and other domains in the normal range).

    This will also help us in the follow up visits.

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  2. Failure (%)

    Recurrence rate

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  3. Complications

    İnjury ( bowel, intestinal, blood vessel injuries, mesh erosions)

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  4. Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ-12)

    The PISQ-12 is a self-adminestered questionnaire that evaluates sexual function of women with pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence. The questionnaire has 12 items. Other than the first 4 questions that are scored from 4 to 0, all questions are scored from 0 to 4. The total score is calculated with totaling the score of each question. The maximum score is 48. Higher scores show good sexual functioning of women.

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  5. Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7)

    evaluating the impact of urinary incontinence

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

  6. Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI - 20)

    evaluating the bowel, bladder, or pelvic symptoms

    Measured: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LLS versus LP in people with Pelvic Organ Prolapse, run by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 10 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 5 Mar 2024. 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?

Subjective cure rate of prolapse (time frame: [ Time Frame: 12 months after intervention ]). 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 5 Mar 2024.
