About this study

Official title: Randomized, Prospective, Single-center Trial Comparing the Efficacy of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) Placement With the Addition of Cyanoacrylate Glue Versus PICC Placement Alone (Without Glue) in Patients With Cancer.

This is a randomized, prospective, single-center trial comparing the efficacy of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) with the addition of cyanoacrylate glue versus PICC placement alone (without glue) in cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICCs) are a form of vascular access inserted percutaneously into a vein, usually in the arm, with the distal end at the atrio cava junction (between the superior vena cava and the right atrium). They may be used for a prolonged period or for several days, repeatedly over time (as is the case for certain chemotherapies, parenteral nutrition or long-term intravenous treatments).

Their placement requires aseptic surgical conditions, and a team trained in the procedure, sometimes grouped together in a Vascular Access Unit (UAV).

A PICC is inserted by puncturing the skin and subcutaneous tissues, and securing the catheter with a "Statlock" type stabilizer. The catheter exit point must be covered, at a minimum by a sterile occlusive dressing with a transparent semi-permeable membrane, otherwise referred to as a "transparent dressing".

According to available data, tissue puncture results in bleeding at the puncture site in 25% to 40% of procedures. This bleeding necessitates the application of a sterile compress prior to covering with a transparent dressing. The skin puncture site (also known as the catheter exit point) requires the dressing to be repeated on D1 after insertion.

To sum up:

  • If there is no bleeding, there is no need to apply a compress, and the dressing can be changed on D8 after application;
  • In the presence of bleeding, a compress is applied and dressing change is mandatory on D1 after application.

PICC placement combined with the use of cyanoacrylate glue would reduce the risk of bleeding, and therefore the need to use of a compress, compared with a standard procedure (without the use of glue).

On this basis, the investigators propose to conduct a randomized, prospective, single-center trial comparing the efficacy of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) with the addition of cyanoacrylate glue versus PICC placement alone (without glue) in patients with cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Cyanoacrylate glue applicationProcedure or surgery

    The wound must be positioned in a horizontal plane, and the glueapplied uniformly overhanging the wound. Cyanoacrylate glue is contraindicated when adhesion cannot be achieved.

    Cyanoacrylate glue should be applied in accordance with the instructions for use.

    Wound-closing properties are only fully achieved once the first layer has fully polymerized. This depends on skin type, skin hydration and ambient humidity. If a second layer is applied, the polymerization time is extended accordingly.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of patients with successful PICC placement

    Success is defined by the possibility of using a dressing without compression at application (at hour 0), i.e. without bleeding after the defined compression time.

    Measured: Hour 0

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Proportion of dressing changes within one hour

    Proportion of patients requiring dressing changes at the CLB within one hour of the end of procedure

    Measured: Up to hour 1

  2. Proportion of dressing changes before day 8

    Proportion of patients requiring dressing changes (home nursing/home care/home hospitalization) in the medium term (day 8)

    Measured: Up to day 8

  3. Proportion of dressing changes before day 30

    Proportion of patients requiring dressing changes (home nursing/home care/home hospitalization) in the medium term (day 30)

    Measured: Up to day 30

  4. Incidence of PICC removal before day 30

    Incidence of PICC removal for any reason within 30 days following placement.

    Measured: Up to day 30

  5. Incidence of PICC-related complications before day 30

    Incidence of PICC-related complications (infection, thrombotic event, obstruction, displacement requiring PICC replacement or not) in the 30 days following placement.

    Measured: Up to day 30

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cyanoacrylate glue application in people with Cancer, run by Centre Leon Berard at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 5 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 27 Sep 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 France. 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?

Rate of patients with successful PICC placement (time frame: Hour 0). 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 27 Sep 2024.
