Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intrauterine adhesion rate after the application of HYALOBARRIER Gel at the end of hysteroscopic myomectomy. Secondary endpoints were tolerance and side effect and subsequent fertility.

Read the detailed description

Hysteroscopic myomectomy is the referent surgical treatment for submucous myoma. But intrauterine adhesion rate was evaluated about 7 to 15% after this procedure. The investigators hypothetically believe that application of HYALOBARRIER Gel at the end of the procedure, could be reduce the mean intrauterine rate to 50%. Thus, the investigators performed a multicenter (n = 20) prospective study non randomized in 220 patients with submucous myoma \< 3 cm of diameter, evaluated by preoperative ultrasound. The investigators prefer this study design, because the principal reason is the number of enrolled patient were more 200 patients in each group with a double blind randomized study. Now, in all patients, after hysteroscopic myomectomy which performed with a same technique in each center (bipolar coagulation and physiologic serum), a diagnostic hysteroscopy was performed at 2 month to determinate the existence of intrauterine adhesion. Secondary end points were in this study the tolerance and side effects of HYALOBARRIER Gel and the subsequent fertility at 2 years.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The formation of postsurgical uterine synechiae rate with HyalobarrierR Gel Endo in hysteroscopic myomectomy

    Time frame: between 4 and 8 weeks after initial hysteroscopic myomectomy

Secondary outcomes

  1. the number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability during the time of the study

    Time frame: 2 years

  2. Postsurgical fertility with evaluation of number of participants who became pregnant after surgery, spontaneously and/or after assisted reproductive technologies

    Time frame: 2 years
