The rate of REGENERA-related SAEs should be <5% at each follow-up after 3 months and up to 18 months.
Measured: After 3 months and up to 18 months
Rate of SAEs with a causal relationship to REGENERA after 18 months and up to 5 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing REGENERA breast implant implantation in people with Mastectomy, Segmental and Breast Neoplasm Malignant Female, run by Tensive SRL at 9 sites in 2 countries.
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 13 inclusion and 20 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?

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 9 sites in Italy, 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Rate of adverse events (AEs) with a causal relationship to REGENERA at 3 months. (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05941299, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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?
