Fat graft with platelet-rich fibrin for breast reconstruction after lumpectomy
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests using a patient's own fat plus a special blood product (platelet-rich fibrin) to rebuild the breast right after a lumpectomy for breast cancer. It may help improve healing and appearance for women with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman diagnosed with breast cancer.
- Your tumor is small (up to 2 cm), low-grade (G1 or G2), and estrogen-receptor positive.
- You have not had chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or radiation before surgery.
- You are in good general health (ECOG performance status 0) and not taking blood thinners.
- You have enough body fat (BMI of 18.5 or higher) for the liposuction procedure.

This study compares two ways to rebuild the breast after mastectomy and radiation using your own tissue: fat grafting alone, or a more complex surgery using abdominal tissue. The goal is to see which method gives better results and quality of life.
This study tests if combining fat grafting with a muscle flap from the back improves breast reconstruction results after a mastectomy. It may help women who had a mastectomy and are now looking for delayed reconstruction.
This trial tests a “full breast reconstruction” approach for people who are planning or have had a breast removal (mastectomy). It may help improve how reconstruction is done and whether you can use the external expansion device as part of the process.
This trial tests a plasma treatment applied directly to the tumor site during a lumpectomy. It may help improve healing and reduce recurrence for people with early-stage breast cancer.
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help transplanted fat tissue survive better in women who have had radiation for breast cancer. It is for women planning a follow-up fat grafting procedure after breast reconstruction.
This study tests a new breast reconstruction method using Motiva Flora implants and your own fat to rebuild the breast after a mastectomy. It is for women who need tissue expansion as part of their reconstruction and have completed cancer treatments at least one year earlier.
