About this study
Official title: Regenerative High Purity Type I Collagen Scaffold for Breast Cancer Excision Repair and Reconstruction: A Prospective Multicenter Clinical Trial
This clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of High Purity Type I Collagen scaffold for breast volume restoration following breast-conserving surgery (BCS). The regenerative collagen matrix serves as a biocompatible scaffold promoting tissue ingrowth, neovascularization, and gradual remodeling, thereby improving cosmetic outcomes and patient quality of life after partial mastectomy.
Read the detailed description
Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is the standard treatment for early-stage breast cancer, balancing oncological safety with aesthetic preservation. However, postoperative volume defects may cause breast asymmetry and psychological distress. Traditional options such as flaps or implants are limited by donor-site morbidity and complications.
This prospective, single-arm, bi-centre study investigates the clinical performance of a high-purity, cross-linked bovine Type I collagen scaffold for immediate breast volume restoration. The study will assess safety, volume maintenance, cosmetic appearance, and patient-reported outcomes through standardized 3D imaging, MRI analysis, and validated quality-of-life instruments.
The study will enroll 40 women undergoing BCS with expected volume defects ≥20%, with 2-month postoperative follow-up for primary endpoints.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
High Purity Type I Collagen Scaffold (Regenerative Matrix)Device
Standard breast-conserving surgery followed by immediate scaffold placement into the excision cavity. The scaffold is sutured using absorbable sutures and covered with standard wound closure. Postoperative care follows institutional protocols. Adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy as indicated per oncological protocols; standard antibiotics and analgesics.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| High Purity Type I Collagen Scaffold | Experimental | Patients undergoing breast conservative surgery will receive immediate placement of high purity Type I collagen scaffold to fill tissue defect. The scaffold is a sterile, cross-linked bovine Type I collagen matrix with degradation time of 2 months, sterilized by ethylene oxide Receives: Device: High Purity Type I Collagen Scaffold (Regenerative Matrix) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Volume Restoration
Proportion of patients achieving ≥80% breast volume retention at 2 months assessed by imaging/MRI
Measured: 2 months post-operative
Patient Satisfaction With Breast Volume Restoration
Patient satisfaction ≥7/10 on standardized satisfaction scale (BREAST-Q). The BREAST-Q is a validated patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) used to assess the quality of life and satisfaction of patients undergoing breast surgery. It consists of specific modules for different procedures, like reconstruction, and measures aspects such as psychological well-being, physical well-being (chest and sexual), and satisfaction with the breasts and care. The scale, which results in scores from 0 to 100, helps evaluate the impact of surgery from the patient's perspective. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a greater degree of health-related quality of life or satisfaction.
Measured: 4 weeks and 8 weeks post-operative
Secondary outcomes (4)
Objective Volume Assessment
Percentage change in breast volume at 2, 4, and 8 weeks post-surgery
Measured: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks post-operative
Cosmetic Assessment
Physician-rated 4-point cosmetic score. This is a standardized visual assessment tool used to evaluate the aesthetic outcome of the operated breast compared to the contralateral breast. The assessment is based on parameters such as breast shape, volume, symmetry, contour, nipple-areolar complex position, and scar appearance. The 4-point grading system is typically defined as:
Grade 4 - Excellent - Described as operated breast almost identical to contralateral side - Criteria is minimal asymmetry, natural contour Grade 3 - Good - Described as slight difference in shape or volume - Acceptable symmetry and cosmetic result Grade 2 - Fair - Described as noticeable asymmetry or distortion - Moderate contour irregularity or scar visibility Grade 1 - Poor - Described as significant deformity or volume loss - Unacceptable cosmetic result
Measured: 2 months post-operative
Radiological Outcomes
MRI Scoring System - Scaffold Integration, Vascularization \& Resorption:
Standardized MRI assessment of scaffold performance (integration, neovascularization, resorption) at baseline, Week 4, and Week 8.
MRI protocol:
T1 (axial/sagittal), T2/STIR (axial), DCE T1 (pre-contrast, early 30-60 s, intermediate 90-120 s, delayed 4-6 min),
Scores (0-3 each):
- Integration: 0 = none; 1 = minimal; 2 = moderate; 3 = complete tissue continuity.
- Vascularization: 0 = none; 1 = mild/delayed; 2 = moderate (neovascular); 3 = marked (early enhancement).
- Resorption: 0 > 75% residual; 1 = 50-75%; 2 = 25-50%; 3 < 25% residual. D. Tissue Quality: 0 = fluid-filled; 1 = mostly fluid; 2 = mixed; 3 = tissue-like.
Composite MRI Integration Score (MIS 0-12): Higher = better integration/remodeling.
Interpretation:
0-3 Poor, 4-7 Moderate, 8-10 Good, 11-12 Excellent.
Measured: Immediate postoperative, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks
Number of Participants With Postoperative Complications
Number of participants experiencing postoperative complications within the 2-month follow-up period after breast cancer excision and collagen scaffold implantation. Complications assessed include seroma, hematoma, surgical site infection, abscess, wound dehiscence, scaffold exposure or extrusion, prolonged postoperative pain, and ecchymosis.
Each participant is counted once per complication category. Higher values indicate greater frequency of complications.
Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing High Purity Type I Collagen Scaffold (Regenerative Matrix) in people with Breast-Conserving Surgery, run by Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, B G Nagara at 2 sites in India.
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 5 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 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in India. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Mar 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Volume Restoration (time frame: 2 months post-operative). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07219316, which also lists 5 linked publications.
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 Mar 2026.
