Overview

The aim is to analyse feasibility of a minimally-invasive isolated limb perfusion.

Description

Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) and isolated limb infusion (ILI) are treatment options for patients with in-transit metastases of melanoma and locally advanced extremity sarcomas. There are several advantages for each method, but if the well-established effects of ILP could be combined to the minimally invasive approach of ILI, the results could be maximized and adverse events, related to open approach, minimized.

A new method for vascular approach (MI-ILP) will be evaluated in a phase I feasibility study. Percutaneous vascular access of the ipsilateral side will be performed by ultrasound guided technique and connected to an extracorporeal oxygenation system. Perfusion will be conducted in the same way as for open ILP. Outcomes, technical details and complications will be recorded prospectively.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
