Characterization of Capsule Inflammation in Patients Exposed to Silicone Breast Implants

INFLAMA
Start date: May 3, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The use of breast implants, both in cosmetic and restorative surgery, is common. It is a device consisting of a silicone elastomer envelope and the container of which may be silicone gel or saline. They can be texturing carriers (roughness) on the surface of their envelope. If silicone is considered inert and biocompatible, several phenomena should be noted: - Implant placement results in the formation of a periprosthetic capsule which is the product of the inflammatory reaction and will isolate it from adjacent breast tissue - The periprosthetic capsule and adjacent breast tissue are chronically exposed to implant silicone. - Silicone in implants, even intact, has been shown to diffuse through the shell into the periprosthetic compartment and adjacent breast tissue - There is a phenomenon of erosion of the surface of the implants, particularly textured, responsible for the release of silicone particles within the periprosthetic capsule - The rupture of the prosthetic envelope is a dreaded complication, due to the alteration of the aesthetic result and the possibility of leakage of silicone gel - Since 2016, macrotextured implants have been implicated in the occurrence of anaplastic large cell lymphoma associated with breast implants (LAC-AIM) The presence of silicone in contact with tissues seems to promote an inflammatory environment, and this phenomenon seems increased if the implant is textured. Chronic inflammation induced by these devices can therefore have harmful consequences in the long term. INFLAMA study interested in the consequences of the presence of a silicone implant on local inflammatory phenomena within the periprosthetic capsule.

NCT ID: NCT06274736 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Breast Reconstruction

Safety and Performance of Motiva® Sizers

Start date: April 10, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Motiva® Sizer clinical study is a four-year, multicenter, post-marketing, and cohort study, designed to confirm the safety and performance of Motiva® Sizer in breast augmentation or reconstruction procedures. The research will include 330 women, divided into two groups of 165 participants each (150 breast augmentation participants and 15 reconstruction participants). The Motiva® Sizer exposed group will consist of women who will undergo breast augmentation or reconstruction surgery with the use of Motiva® Sizer during the procedure, and a non-exposed group will consist of women who will undergo breast augmentation or reconstruction surgery without the use of Motiva® Sizer. This study will be conducted in Costa Rica. The main goal is to evaluate the safety and the performance of the Motiva® Sizer. To this end, the results of both groups will be compared in terms of surgical complications, surgeon's, and participant's satisfaction level as well as reoperation rates. After the augmentation or reconstruction surgery, participants will be scheduled for the following follow-up visits, (1) between 3 and 7 postoperative days, (2) between 3 and 6 postoperative weeks, (3) at 3 and (4) 6 postoperative months, and (5, 6 and 7) annually thereafter for a period of three consecutive years. In case any participant has an adverse event due to the procedure, and if required by the physician, an additional visit will be made to assess her, and this information as well as that of the scheduled visits should be recorded in the electronic data collection notebook.

NCT ID: NCT06139588 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Comparative Analysis of Two Animal-derived ADMs in Irradiated Implant-based Reconstruction

RTADM
Start date: June 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this retrospective observational trial is to compare two different devices, used in implant-based breast reconstruction, called acellular dermal matrices, which are a sort of collagen patch that integrates with the tissues of the patient and helps in contrasting the collateral effects of radiotherapy (capsular contracture, implant loss) The main questions the study aims to answer are: - is one of the two matrices better than the other? (better results with fewer complications) - is there a group of patients who benefit more than another from the use of this type of devices? - is there an adm which works better in one specific subgroup of patients? Participants have undergone mastectomy, radiotherapy and implant reconstruction with the aid of two different kinds of acellular dermal matrices. Researchers will compare patients who receive the porcine-derived adm and the patients who receive bovine-derived adm to see if there is a difference in terms of capsular contracture reduction, aestethic result and complications.

Seroma of the Mammary Gland

SerMa
Start date: April 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study is designed as international, prospective, multicenter non-AMG/MPG study in cooperation with EUBREAST e.V. (European Breast Cancer Research Association of Surgical Trialists). Furthermore, it is planned to initiate a registry for postoperative breast seromas.

NCT ID: NCT05757778 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Breast Implant; Complications

Split Chest Breast Neurotization

Start date: August 8, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Several members of the scientific community have suggested that breast neurotization can help return nipple sensation to patients undergoing implant-based breast reconstruction. There has been no randomized controlled study assessing the validity of these claims. The goal of this study is to evaluate if performing breast neurotization can help restore or improve return of nipple sensation to patients undergoing implant-based breast reconstruction. This will be a single-blinded, randomized controlled trial where patients undergoing bilateral reconstruction will serve as their own controls by receiving an intervention on one breast but not the other breast.

Molecular Mechanisms Associated With Breast Implant Complications

MMABIC
Start date: January 3, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Bacterial biofilms cause implant failures, chronic inflammation, and immune polarization. The study investigates the possible role of bacterial biofilm as a factor in the etiology of Breast Implant Illness. Three patient cohorts will be studied (A) Subjects with breast implant with BII manifestations (B) Subjects with breast implants without BII manifestations (C) Subjects without breast implants who underwent breast surgery procedure. Blood, surgically discarded tissue, implants, and associated capsules will be collected through this protocol.

NCT ID: NCT05400954 Enrolling by invitation - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Association of Silicone Breast Implants With Overall Wellbeingand Auto-immune Diseases

AREOLA-B
Start date: July 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: Implant-based breast reconstructions contribute considerably to the quality of life of breast cancer patients. A knowledge gap exists concerning the potential role of breast implants in the development of so called 'breast implant illness' and autoimmune diseases in breast cancer survivors with a silicone breast implant-based reconstruction. Breast implant illness is a constellation of non-specific symptoms reported by a small group of women with silicone breast implants. Methods/Design: The Areola study is a multi-centre historic cohort study with prospective follow-up aiming to assess the risk of 'breast implant illness' and autoimmune diseases in female breast cancer survivors with and without silicone breast implants. The cohort consists of breast cancer survivors who received surgical treatment with silicone implant-based reconstruction in six major hospitals across the Netherlands in the period between 2000 and 2015. As comparison group, a frequency-matched sample of breast cancer survivors without breast implants will be selected. An additional group of women who received breast augmentation surgery in the same years will be selected to compare their characteristics and health outcomes with those of breast cancer patients with implants. All women still alive will be invited to complete a web-based questionnaire covering various health related topics. The entire cohort including deceased women will be linked to the population based computerized databases of Statistics Netherlands. These databases include a registry of diagnostic codes, a pharmacotherapeutic prescriptions registry and a cause-of-death registry in which diagnoses of autoimmune diseases will be identified. Outcomes of interest are the prevalence and incidence of BII and the prevalence and incidence of autoimmune diseases. In addition, risk factors for the development of BII and autoimmune disorders will be assessed among women with implants. Discussion: The Areola study will contribute to the availability of reliable information on the risks of breast implant illness and autoimmune diseases in Dutch breast cancer survivors with silicone breast implants. This will inform breast cancer survivors and aid future breast cancer patients and their treating physicians to make informed decisions about reconstructive strategies after mastectomy.
