Breast reconstruction study tests expanders beyond approved use
NCT ID NCT07434648
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will compare two different tissue expanders used in breast reconstruction after mastectomy in 80 women. Some participants will also receive radiation therapy, which is not typically recommended with these devices. Researchers will evaluate aesthetic outcomes, patient satisfaction, complications, and how radiation affects the expander material and surrounding tissue.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
tissue expander (Motiva Flora or SILTEX BECKER)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors choose the best expander for breast reconstruction and understand how radiation affects the implant material and surrounding tissue.
What could go wrong
This is an early exploratory study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Using expanders beyond their approved duration or with radiation carries unknown risks.
