About this study

Official title: Use of Titanium Plate in Rhinoplasty in Patients With Cleft Lip and Palate: Aesthetic and Functional Impact. TROPIC (Titanium RhinOPlasty ImpaCt)

The patients in this study are all born with a cleft lip and palate. They underwent several interventions in childhood to take care of it.

Professor Gleizal offered them a secondary rhinoplasty aimed at normalizing the appearance of their nose.

In this malformative and multioperated context, typical nasal deformities affect the tip of the nose, which appears to be sagging and asymmetrical. Scarred soft tissues exert an important retractile force against which conventional rhinoplasty techniques often remain insufficient.

The use of columellar struts makes it possible to give again projection to the tip of the nose but when this strut is made from cartilage or bone, it is absorbed with the time. Moreover, these interventions require a remote removal of the site of interest (costal cartilage, tibial crest, calvaria) which generates additional morbidity.

The investigators propose an alternative using a synthetic graft of titanium. This material has been used for many years for its excellent biocompatibility and trauma resistance.

28 patients were able to benefit from this technique between March 1, 2016 and March 1, 2018.

The investigators wish to evaluate the aesthetic and functional results from the patient's point of view by submitting them to one validated rhinoplasty questionnaire after the end of the patient's inclusion.

What participants receive

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

  • Rhinoplasty questionnaireOther

    Each patient will complete a validated rhinoplasty questionnaire (Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation) before and after the intervention

What is being measured

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

  1. Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation scores

    Comparison of pre- and postoperative ROE (Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation) scores in patients with cleft lip and palate who benefited from the placement of a titanium columellar strut.

    Each patient completes the questionnaire before and after the intervention. Then the investigators compare these scores to evaluate the improvement.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation scores (time frame: 1 month). 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 19 Mar 2019.
