Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The following inclusion criteria will be considered:
  • Written informed consent
  • Age > 18 years
  • Indication for elective oncological rectal resection in the presence of malignant rectal disease and the lower edge of the tumor, measured from the anal verge with the rigid rectoscope, ≤ 14cm
  • Use of a circular anastomosis using the "double stapling technique"(6) during creation of the anastomosis
  • Expected availability within the maximum 45-day period of study participation
  • The use of "golden standard" stapling technology devices; 3 rows endo linear stapler; 2 rows circular stapling devices should be used in an open and laparoscopic approach

Who cannot join

  • The following exclusion criteria will be considered:
  • Pregnancy, or the non-exclusion of pregnancy (for women of childbearing potential). In the case of menopause having occurred more than 2 years ago or postmenopausal sterilization or surgical sterilization, the authorized physician is free to classify the female study participant as non-pregnant, so that the pregnancy test otherwise required at the beginning of study participation (or during subject screening) may be omitted.
  • Risk of pregnancy occurring while taking part in the study in women not meeting at least one of the following criteria: Onset of menopause more than 2 years ago, postmenopausal sterilization, surgical sterilization, a promise to use contraception (with hormones, coil or diaphragm/condom + spermicide), while enrolled in the study) In the case of onset of menopause more than 2 years ago, postmenopausal sterilization or surgical sterilization, the authorized doctor is free to classify the patient in question as infertile. Furthermore, it is at the discretion of the authorized physician to classify the patient in question on the basis of continuous inpatient care in such a way that the occurrence of pregnancy during participation in the study can be ruled out ("continuous determination of the absence of pregnancy"). If one of the above classifications applies, further measures to ensure that a pregnancy does not occur during the patient's participation in the study may not be required.
  • Breastfeeding period
  • Lack of legal capacity
  • Vulnerable persons according to the law
Show all 15Show fewer
  • Comorbidity with the potential for relevant impairment of anastomosis durability (leukemia, cirrhosis of the liver, Child Pugh C, etc.)
  • Preoperative anemia with Hb <8g/dL
  • Participating in another study
  • Patients on Aspirin not able to stop using Aspirin for medical reasons minimum 3 days before taking the blood sampling.
  • Patients on Clopidogrel not able to stop using Clopidogrel for medical reasons minimum 7 days before blood sampling.
  • Patients on other platelet aggregation inhibitor therapies
  • Contraindication for Obsidian ASG®
  • Surgical technique of transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME)
  • Application of a circular powered stapler in the course of anastomosis supply with GSTTM technology or a 3 row circular stapler use while creating the study anastomosis

About this study

Official title: Investigation of the Benefit of Using an Autologous Platelet-rich Fibrin Matrix (Obsidian ASG®) for Treatment of Anastomosis During Rectal Surgery - a Single-blind, Randomized, Multicenter Pilot Study

Anastomotic insufficiency remains one of the most significant problems after rectal resection.The complications following anastomotic insufficiency leads to increased morbidity and mortality with subsequent prolongation of hospital stay and higher costs.

This study is an investigation of the benefit of using an autologous platelet-rich fibrin matrix (Obsidian ASG®) for treatment of anastomosis during rectal surgery - a single-blind, randomized, multicenter pilot study with enrollment of 2x125 patients

Read more

The main objective of the study is to investigate on an exploratory basis whether the use of Obsidian ASG® during rectal resection reduces the frequency of postoperative anastomotic insufficiency compared to standard anastomotic technique.

The secondary objectives of the study are to investigate on an exploratory basis:

  • The frequency of anastomotic insufficiency (ISREC Criteria) severity
  • Staple line bleeding requiring surgical intervention
  • The duration of postoperative hospitalization are reduced when using Obsidian ASG ® compared with standard anastomotic treatment alone. are reduced when Obsidian ASG ® is added to the standard of anastomotic treatment compared with standard anastomotic treatment alone.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Obsidian ASG in people with Anastomotic Leak Rectum, run by Vivostat at 13 sites in 5 countries.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy, Serbia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Anastomosis insufficiency [yes/no] (time frame: 45 days). 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 25 Jul 2024.
