About this study

Official title: Small Intestinal Submucosa Graft as an Alternative to Conventional Buccal Mucosa for Substitution Urethroplasty of Anterior Urethral Strictures

The field of research for this study is tissue engineering and the utilization of a small intestinal submucosa graft as a substitute biomaterial for conventional buccal mucosa in substitution urethroplasty of anterior urethral strictures.

Read the detailed description

Urethral stricture refers to the abnormal narrowing of the urethral lumen resulting from fibrosis that affects the urethral epithelium and underlying corpus spongiosum. The management of urethral stricture longer than 2 cm a major therapeutic challenge in clinics. Currently available surgical techniques require harvesting of grafts from autologous sites. However, there are numerous disadvantages associated with autografts, such as limited availability and variable quality, donor site morbidity, increased risk of surgical complications; thereby the application of this method is especially limited for large defects.

The hypothesis of this study is that the small intestinal submucosa graft can be used as an alternative biomaterial to buccal mucosa for substitution urethroplasty in urethral stricture patients. The aim of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of surgical treatment of patients with anterior urethral stricture using a small intestinal submucosa graft. The follow-up time for all patients in this study was 5 years. The follow-up regimen includes retrograde and pericatheter urethrography, voiding cystourethrography, uroflowmetry, cystoscopy, and voiding symptoms monitoring. Telephone follow-up will take place in between these assessments.

What participants receive

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

  • Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) graft urethroplastyProcedure or surgery

    Standard technique of doing a substitution urethroplasty with no modification to the surgical steps. Instead of an autologous oral bucal mucosa graft, the small intestinal submucosa graft is sutured to the healty urethral area after incision of the urethra at the stricture location.

  • Autologous oral bucal mucosa graft urethroplastyProcedure or surgery

    Standard technique of doing a substitution urethroplasty with no modification to the surgical steps. The autologous oral bucal mucosa graft is sutured to the healty urethral area after incision of the urethra at the stricture location.

What is being measured

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

  1. Urethral patency

    A peri-urethrogram will be performed prior to catheter removal

    Measured: 4 weeks post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Serious adverse events

    Frequency, type and severity of serious adverse events

    Measured: 4 weeks post-surgery

  2. Voiding symptoms

    Participants are filling out the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire.

    Measured: 2 months up-to 5 years post-surgery

  3. Urine flow

    Participants are undergoing an uroflowmetry. This test measures the volume of urine released from the body, the speed with which it is released, and how long the release takes.

    Measured: 2 months up-to 5 years post-surgery

  4. Anatomic recurrence of urethral stricture observed by cystoscopy 、 Retrograde urethrography(RUG)、 Voiding cystourethrography(VCUG)

    Full assessment of the urethral lumen after the surgery

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) graft urethroplasty and Autologous oral bucal mucosa graft urethroplasty in people with Urethral Stricture, Male, run by Xiaoyong Zeng at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2024. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Urethral patency (time frame: 4 weeks post-surgery). 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 5 Jan 2024.
