Circumferential Periareolar Mastopexy Using SERI Surgical Scaffold

August 21, 2019 updated by: Mark Mofid MD
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of SERI® Surgical Scaffold to maintain the size of the areola by providing additional soft tissue support after circumferential periareolar mastopexy.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

  • Be in good health and suited to general anesthesia and planned treatments
  • Non smokers
  • If the subject is of childbearing potential, have a urine pregnancy test evaluated as negative (assessed at baseline examination (Visit 1), agree to use contraception as prevention to avoid pregnancy during the study period
  • Previous augmentation with silicone-filled or saline-filled breast implants or patients desiring periareolar mastopexy
  • Requiring surgery for ptotic breasts

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with diagnosed diabetes must have HbAIc ≤ 8% within 3 months of enrollment
  • Is taking medications known to impair wound healing (e.g. corticosteroids, chemotherapeutic agents etc.,)
  • Bleeding disorders (e.g., Hemophilia, von Willebrand Disease) including the following medications & supplements: Warfarin, platelet inhibitors (e.g. NSAIDs or Clopidogrel) not stopped within 2 weeks of the operation and herbal supplements known to predispose to bleeding (e.g. Gingko and Ginseng)
  • Showed tissue characteristics that were clinically incompatible with mammaplasty, such as tissue damage resulting from radiation, inadequate tissue, compromised vascularity or ulceration
  • Had, or was under treatment for, any condition that may have constituted an unwarranted surgical risk (e.g., unstable cardiac or pulmonary problems)
  • History of prior implantation of any surgical scaffold (e.g., synthetic mesh, acellular dermal matrix, or biologic mesh) in the breast
  • Implantation of any non-SERI® surgical scaffold (e.g., synthetic mesh, acellular dermal matrix, or biologic mesh) during the study period
  • Be currently enrolled in another clinical study of an implanted device in the breast or plan to enroll in another clinical study within the study period, which could affect wound healing in the breast repair site and/or would not allow the patient to attend all study visits as outlined within this protocol
  • Product contraindications for use of SERI® Surgical Scaffold per the supplied package insert (e.g., hypersensitivity to silk)
  • Show psychological characteristics that may have been incompatible with the surgical procedure and the prosthesis, such as inappropriate attitude or motivation (e.g., body dysmorphic disorder)
  • Active alcohol/substance abuse problem or have had a relapse within 1 year prior to screening/qualification visit (Visit 1)
  • Was not willing to undergo further surgery for revision, if medically required

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
