Gynecomastia clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Effect of Suture Material on Postoperative Nipple Areolar Complex Widening

Start date: December 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This will be a single-blinded study where participants are blinded to the suture type but the surgeon will draw a random, unmarked envelope containing the designated suture type at the start of the surgery. The patient population will be all patients undergoing breast surgery at the London Health Sciences Center (LHSC) - ie. University Hospital, Victoria Hospital and the Nazem Kadri Surgical Center, and St. Joseph's Hospital. Three (3) main procedure groups will be transgender gender-affirming top surgery, cisgender female breast reduction or augmentation (including healthy and cancer patients; subgroup analysis will be performed), and cisgender male gynecomastia surgery. The goal is n=180 patients, n=60 per type of suture with n=20 per type of procedure (totaling n=60 per type of procedure). NAC width for each breast will be measured intraoperatively, at 2 weeks postop, 6 weeks postop, 3 months postop, and 6 months postop. These measurements will be deidentified and logged into a secure data entry form. Information on whether a secondary outcome occurred (ie. infection, dehiscence, revision and nipple necrosis) will be logged in this form as well. Because the sutures will be kept non-visible under dressings until the clinical followup appointment 2 weeks postop, the patient will remain blinded as to the type of suture used on their NAC(s). At this point, absorbable sutures will have been largely dissolved and non-absorbable sutures will be removed.
