Study of Lymphatic Dysfunction in Primary and Secondary Lymphedema
Lymphedema is a disorder of the lymphatic vascular system characterized by impaired lymphatic return and swelling of the extremities and accumulation of undrained interstitial fluid/lymph that results in fibrosis and adipose tissue deposition in the affected area. It can be an inherited condition (primary lymphedema) or occurs after cancer surgery …
Pedal Pump and Leg Lymphedema
Chronic lymphedema in the lower extremities is a common problem found in older adults that can result in cellulitis, poor wound healing, venous stasis ulcers, and other comorbidities. Compressive therapies are the present gold standard for the manual treatment of lymphedema in the lower extremities. However, the benefits of these …
A Non-randomized, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of the Dayspring Technology for Patients With Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema (BCRL) After Lymphatic Surgery
To evaluate the Dayspring Active Wearable Compression Technology in enhancing lymph movement and its safety and effectiveness after lymphatic surgery
Added Value of Reconstructive Lymphatic Surgery to Usual Care in Lymphoedema
The primary objective of this research proposal is to investigate in patients with lymphoedema of the upper limb or lower limb (P) the added value of reconstructive lymphatic surgery (I) to the decongestive lymphatic therapy (usual care) (C) on the lymphoedema-specific quality of life (QoL) (O) at 18 months post-surgery/ …
The Robot-LVA Study: Robot-assisted Microsurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis in Breast Cancer-related Lymphedema
This study assesses the performance of robot-assisted microsurgery. Lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) is the most difficult procedure in microsurgery at this moment. The LVA technique is applied to treat for example breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Therefore, this LVA procedure is compared using a manual expert and the same expert applying robot-assisted …
Effect of Lymphovenous Anastomosis on Lower Limb Lymphedema: Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial
This multicentre pragmatic randomised controlled trial evaluates lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) for lower-limb lymphedema (LLL) in Denmark. Adults with unilateral or bilateral International Society of Lymphology (ISL) stage 1-2a LLL who have completed protocol-defined Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT) are randomised 1:1 to Intervention arm - LVA surgery plus ongoing compression care …
Surgical Evaluation for Upper Extremity Lymphedema (BioBridge)
To investigate whether the addition of Fibralign's BioBridge® Collagen Matrix (BioBridge) devices to the standard surgery for vascularized lymph node transfer will improve the outcome of surgical treatment in lymphedema of the upper arm.
Reversing External-beam Radiotherapy-associated Fibrosis Syndrome: an Interventional Bayesian Adaptive Randomized-controlled Orphan Drug Platform Trial for Orodental Sequelae (Reverse-fibrose)
To find out if adding medication can help treat or prevent lymphedema and/or fibrosis related to radiation therapy, in survivors of head and neck cancer. Researchers will compare these drugs to find the most effective therapy for preventing or limiting these side effects.
Systemic Therapy of Open-label Prophylactic Pravastatin or Pentoxifylline/Tocopherol Prevention of Lymphedema Advancing to Eventual Fibrosis: an Interventional Registry-embedded Bayesian Randomized Trial for Radiation Sequelae (STOP4-LATE-FIBROSE)
To learn if pentoxifylline and vitamin E or pravastatin can reduce radiation-induced lymphedema/fibrosis.
LymphBridge: Surgical Evaluation for Breast Cancer-Associated Lymphedema (BioBridge)
To investigate whether the addition of Fibralign's BioBridge® Collagen Matrix (BioBridge) devices to the standard surgery for vascularized lymph node transfer will improve the outcome of surgical treatment in lymphedema of the upper arm.
