About this study

Technologies 3D are demonstrating enormous potential for innovation in the field of surgery,introducing the concept of "treatment customization" (from planning surgery to implant design and manufacturing) on the patient's anatomy, simply by taking advantage of the patient's own common diagnostic images and the flexibility of 3D printing. In fact, this new construction technology allows the construction of the complex anatomical geometries with economy, simplicity and on scales of production unattainable by other traditional technologies.

What participants receive

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

  • 3D printer applicationsDevice

    Patients will undergo TC/MRI as per routinary care. Custom 3D-devices will be printed on the basis of these images. The device will be used to establish pre-operative surgical options in terms of tissue/bones demolition/reconstruction.

What is being measured

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

  1. 3D model feasibility for pre-surgical making decisions

    Number of cases in which the time interval between prescription and delivery of the device exceeds 20 days

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Surgical time

    Number of procedures in which the surgical outcome can be considered optimal (taking planning as a reference) by comparing CT images and evaluating the margins at final histologic analysis.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Device feasibility

    Proportion of failed surgeries due to a positive or contaminated finding of the margin of bone resection on final histological examination. verified by comparing the expected outcome (i.e., planning output) and the actual outcome (on the postoperative CT scan).

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 3D printer applications in people with Sarcoma and Intracranial Neoplasm, run by Kathleen McGreevy at 3 sites 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 4 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 4 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 3 sites 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?

Contact Kathleen McGreevy, PhD (055 5662644, kathleen.mcgreevy@meyer.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

3D model feasibility for pre-surgical making decisions (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 3 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 4 Mar 2024.
