Dermal matrix study in breast reconstruction
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a special supportive material called acellular dermal matrix in women having two-stage breast reconstruction after mastectomy. The goal is to learn how well it works when the implant is placed directly under the skin, over the chest muscle.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are genetically female and at least 22 years old.
- You are having a mastectomy that saves the nipple or skin, followed by immediate breast reconstruction.
- Your reconstruction will be done in two stages, with the implant placed above the chest muscle (pre-pectoral).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you do not use tobacco or nicotine.
- You do not have poorly controlled diabetes or a body mass index (BMI) over 35.

This trial tests a new acellular matrix (a material made from natural tissue) used during breast reconstruction with implants. It aims to help support the implant and promote natural tissue healing.
This study tests if a special mesh called an acellular dermal matrix (SC DERM® Recon) is safe for women having breast reconstruction with implants after mastectomy for breast cancer. It involves careful follow-up to check for any problems.
This trial tests a new mesh-like device called Melodi Matrix to support breast reconstruction after mastectomy. It may help women who are planning immediate two-stage implant reconstruction after removing one or both breasts.
This trial studies whether a lab-made skin graft (called ADM) used with tissue expanders can improve breast reconstruction after mastectomy. It may help people who are planning a specific two-step implant reconstruction approach.
This study tests a new supportive mesh called ARTIA for women having breast reconstruction immediately after a mastectomy. The mesh is placed under the skin to help hold a breast implant in position during a two-stage reconstruction process.
This trial studies breast reconstruction using implants after mastectomy (breast removal surgery). It aims to understand how different types of implants work and how patients recover.
