NCT ID: NCT04854525 Completed - Clinical trials for Radiotherapy; Complications

Breast Reconstruction in Previously Irradiated Breast

Start date: June 6, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

For patients with breast cancer subject to a mastectomy, preserving the morphology of the breast with immediate reconstruction is a crucial aspect to preserve the quality of life. There are several types of breast reconstruction: prosthetic in one or two stages and autologous reconstruction. Adjuvant radiotherapy has shown an improvement of the overall survival and of the local control for patients with positive lymph nodes. As a consequence, plastic surgeons come into contact with more patients with a history of irradiation of their breasts than ever before. However, there are few studies with a significant number that evaluate the effect of pre-reconstruction radiotherapy on the three types of reconstruction. The aim of this study is to compare retrospectively these three types of reconstruction techniques to evaluate the impact of breast prior irradiation on the outcome of prosthetic reconstruction.

Adjuvant Radiotherapy's Effect on One and Two Stages Prosthetic Breast Reconstruction and on Autologous Reconstruction

Start date: June 6, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

For patients with breast cancer subject to a mastectomy, preserving the morphology of the breast with immediate reconstruction is a crucial aspect to preserve the quality of life. There are several types of breast reconstruction: prosthetic in one or two stages and autologous reconstruction. Adjuvant radiotherapy has shown an improvement of the overall survival and of the local control for patients with positive lymph nodes. Despite the undoubted cancer benefits, several studies have shown the negative impact of radiotherapy on breast reconstruction. However, there are few studies with a significant number that evaluate the effect of radiotherapy on the three types of reconstruction. In particular, given the extreme variability in clinical approaches, there is no certainty about the best reconstructive timing compared to radiotherapy, the iterations with dermic matrices as well as the usefulness of ancillary procedures such as autologous adipose grafting. The aim of this study is to compare retrospectively these three types of reconstruction techniques to evaluate the effect of radiotherapy on different reconstructive modes.

Associated Balance of Risk Score - Comprehensive Complication Index for the Prediction of Post-transplant Survival

Start date: January 15, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

In recent years, several scoring systems have been developed aimed at predicting early post-LT graft function. However, many of them showed poor efficacy when long-term survivals were tested. Moreover, the necessity to find an easy-to-use score represents another obstacle, with several scores composed by numerous, difficult to find, variables. Recently, the pre-LT Balance of Risk (BAR) and the post-LT Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) have been created, but their external validation and integration in this setting is lacking. This study aims at constructing an easy-to-use score system based on the combination of a small number of pre- and immediately post-liver transplant (LT) independent variables, in order to accurately predict long-term graft survival after LT.
