Only Mesh Fixation With Glue of Ventral/Incisional Laparoscopic Hernia Repair (OMEGA)

March 4, 2024 updated by: Rafael Villalobos Mori, Institut Catala de Salut

OMEGA Trial: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Non-inferiority Trial of Only MEsh Fixation With a Glue Applicator Comparing Traumatic vs Atraumatic Fixation of the Mesh in Ventral/Incisional Laparoscopic Repair

This multicenter randomized controlled non-inferiority trial of only mesh fixation with a glue applicator is a trial to evaluate the outcomes between atraumatic laparoscopic mesh fixation with GLUTACK-Glubran2® and conventional traumatic fixation, so the primary endpoint of the study is to analyze the recurrence on ventral or incisional hernia repair 2 years postoperatively assessed by a clinical and/or imaging technique.

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.

Detailed Description

Patients older than 18 years undergoing an elective ventral/incisional hernia laparoscopic repair with a hernia defect between 4-10cm of transversal defect The patients included are adults with a BMI lesser than 35 Kg/m2 undergoing an elective laparoscopic primary ventral or incisional hernia repair with a fascial transverse defect between 4-8 cm (W2 EHS) on anterior or lateral location (M1-M5 up to 10 cm of length or L1-3) For the interventional procedure, three ports are used (1x11 mm and 2x5 mm) and after adhesiolysis and the field prepared, the defect is measured with a local standard in a craneo-caudal and transversal directions. Then, the defect is closed with a 2-0 caliber barbed suture following its biggest axis. A Dynamesh IPOM previously hydrated (2-3 min) is introduced throughout the 11mm trocar and extended. After this maneuver, mesh fixation is performed depending on the randomized arm (125 per arm): either traumatic fixation with the conventional procedure and device or with Glutack-Glubran®2.

After two years of follow-up, the recurrence will be analyzed.

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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of the recurrence on ventral or incisional hernia repair 2 years postoperatively assessed by a clinical and/or imaging technique.
Time Frame: 2 years
The fixation of the mesh with atraumatic material with glue is as good as the conventional traumatic fixation
2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Rate of postoperative pain between atraumatic and traumatic fixation of the mesh (EuraHS Quality of life scale: 0-10). Ten is the worst outcome
Time Frame: 2 years
2 years
Types of comorbidities related on the surgery as visceral adhesions, seroma, hematoma, bulging, port site incisional hernia, recurrence
Time Frame: 2 years
2 years
Quality of life (QoL) between the two types of fixations with the EuraHS scale at 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months. EurasHS scale of 10 is the worst outcome
Time Frame: 2 years
