SurgiPerito Trial: High-Purity Type-I Collagen for Peritoneal Reconstruction After Cytoreductive Surgery

March 27, 2026 updated by: Dr Naveen Narayan MS, MCh (Plastic Surgery), Adichunchanagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, B G Nagara

A Randomized Controlled Trial of High-Purity Type-I Collagen-Based Biomaterial (Surgicoll-Mesh®) as a Peritoneal Substitute to Prevent Post-Peritonectomy Complications in Patients Undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery

This dual-centre, randomized controlled trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of high-purity Type-I collagen-based biomaterial, as a peritoneal substitute following peritonectomy in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for peritoneal surface malignancy. The study tests whether Surgicoll-Mesh can reduce major postoperative intra-abdominal complications compared with standard management.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Peritonectomy during CRS often leads to adhesion formation, obstruction, and wound complications. High-purity Type-I collagen-based biomaterial, a resorbable collagen matrix, provides a temporary barrier and scaffold that promotes tissue regeneration and reduces adhesions. This trial will randomize 60 patients (30 per group) to receive standard closure or peritoneal reconstruction with high-purity Type-I collagen-based biomaterial. The primary endpoint is the incidence of major intra-abdominal complications within 2 months. Secondary endpoints include individual complication rates, bowel recovery, hospital stay, mesh-related events, and quality of life

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: High Purity Type-I Collagen-based Peritoneal Substitute
Patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with peritonectomy will receive intraoperative peritoneal reconstruction using High Purity Type-I Collagen-based Peritoneal Substitute, a sterile, resorbable, high-purity Type-I collagen biomaterial. The mesh is tailored to the peritonectomy defect and secured with absorbable sutures prior to abdominal closure.
Peritoneal reconstruction using High-Purity Type-I Collagen Scaffold after peritonectomy. Purpose is to act as a biologic peritoneal substitute promoting tissue regeneration and reducing postoperative adhesions and complications.
Active Comparator: Standard Peritonectomy Closure
Patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with peritonectomy will have standard closure of the peritoneal defect without the use of any biomaterial or mesh substitute. Surgical closure will follow institutional standard of care.
Conventional Closure, to serve as the comparator arm for evaluating complication rates, adhesion formation, and recovery outcomes.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of Major Intra-abdominal Complications
Time Frame: 2 months post-surgery

2 months post-surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Individual Complication Rates
Time Frame: 2 months
Individual complication rates (intraperitoneal adhesions, bowel obstruction, wound infection, hernia, fistula)
2 months
Time to Bowel Function Recovery
Time Frame: 1 month
Time to bowel function recovery and diet tolerance
1 month
Length of Intensive Care Unit Stay
Time Frame: During index hospitalization
Duration of postoperative intensive care unit stay following cytoreductive surgery.
During index hospitalization
Length of Hospital Stay
Time Frame: During index hospitalization
Total duration of hospitalization following cytoreductive surgery.
During index hospitalization
Device-related Adverse Events
Time Frame: Within 2 months after surgery
Any adverse event deemed related to the implanted High-Purity Type-I Collagen biomaterial, including mesh reaction, infection, seroma, rejection, or need for mesh removal, assessed within the 2-month postoperative period.
Within 2 months after surgery
MRI-Detected Intra-Abdominal Adhesions
Time Frame: Within 2 months after surgery
Number of participants with dense intra-abdominal adhesions detected by postoperative magnetic resonance imaging.
Within 2 months after surgery
Change in Quality of Life Domains (EORTC QLQ-C30)
Time Frame: Baseline to 2 months after surgery

Change from baseline in quality of life assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. Scores are transformed to a 0-100 scale.

For global health and functional scales, higher scores indicate better outcomes and higher change values represent improvement.

For pain (symptom scales), higher scores indicate worse symptoms; therefore, reductions from baseline represent improvement

Baseline to 2 months after surgery
