About this study

Official title: Observational Prospective Study of a Non-cross-linked Porcine Acellular Dermal Matrix in Ventral Mesh Rectopexy

The general objective of the study is to confirm the medium/long-term safety and clinical performance of the CELLIS Rectopexy membrane used in rectal prolapse repair by ventral rectopexy and to identify emerging risks in comparison to the clinical data related to other types of fixation material.

The present study will be a prospective multicentric non-randomized and non-controlled trial involving 55 patients followed for 24 months. The study will be conducted in France in 3 investigational centres.

Read the detailed description

The study will be prospective, multicentric, single-arm, observational (non-interventional) to evaluate the safety and performance of CELLIS Rectopexy used in rectal prolapse repair by ventral rectopexy.

All evaluations will be performed and products used according to the usual practice, without additional or unusual diagnostic, treatment and monitoring procedure.

The study will be conducted in France in 3 investigational centres including 55 patients scheduled for the repair of rectal prolapse.

Each patient will participate in one assessment period including a screening visit, followed by the day of surgical procedure and a hospitalization period. Patients will return for ambulatory visits at Day 30 (+/- 7 days), Month 6 (+/- 2 weeks), Month 12 (+/- 2 weeks) and Month 24 (+/-2 weeks).

The surgical technique used to repair rectal prolapse will be either Laparoscopic Ventral Rectopexy (LVR) or a robotic assisted rectopexy with the use of the da Vinci Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA).

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of adverse events including reoperation and removal of the mesh

    Percentage

    Measured: From the surgical procedure through the entire 24-month follow-up period

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Rate of structural defect recurrence based on rectal examination with/without adjunctive investigations as clinically indicated

    Percentage

    Measured: Throughout the study until end of the 24-month follow-up period

  2. Rate of structural defect recurrence requiring reoperation

    Percentage

    Measured: Throughout the study until end of the 24-month follow-up period

  3. Symptoms evolution: presence or absence of symptoms (constipation, fecal incontinence, bloody and/or mucous rectal discharge (soiling), unsatisfactory sexual activity, pain)

    Described at each visit and compared to baseline

    Measured: At baseline and at 30-day, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month follow-up visits

  4. Symptoms severity scored by a visual analog scale (0-10; 0 corresponding to no impact on life and 10 corresponding to extreme, incapacitating impact)

    Described at each visit and compared to baseline

    Measured: At baseline and at 30-day, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month follow-up visits

  5. Rate of symptoms recurrence

    Percentage

    Measured: Throughout the study until end of the 24-month follow-up period

  6. Severity of disease by the use of the Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score (CCIS)

    Change from screening of total score at each follow-up visit. This scoring system cross-tabulates frequencies and different anal incontinence presentations (Gas/Liquid/Solid/Pad use/Need for lifestyle alterations) and sums the returned score to a total of 0-20 (where 0 = perfect continence and 20 = complete incontinence).

    Measured: At baseline and at 30-day, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month follow-up visits

  7. Severity of disease by the use of the Obstructed Defecation Score (ODS)

    Change from screening of total score at each follow-up visit. The ODS score is the sum of all points, with a minimum of 0 point and a maximum possible of 31 points with higher scores meaning worse outcome.

    Measured: At baseline and at 30-day, 6-month, 12-month and 24-month follow-up visits

  8. Quality of life by the use of the Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire

    Change from screening of each domain score and total score at 24-month. The SF-36 has eight scaled scores; the scores are weighted sums of the questions in each section. Scores range from 0 - 100 with lower scores = more disability, and higher scores = less disability

    Measured: At baseline and at 24-month

  9. Description of device deficiency: inadequacy of a medical device with respect to its identity, quality, durability, reliability, safety or performance. Device deficiencies include malfunctions, use errors, and inadequate labelling.

    Summarized and listed

    Measured: During the surgical procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rectal Prolapse, run by Meccellis Biotech at 3 sites 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 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 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Rate of adverse events including reoperation and removal of the mesh (time frame: From the surgical procedure through the entire 24-month follow-up period). 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 27 Oct 2023.
