Could a Bacteria-Based injection prevent implant complications?
NCT ID NCT07460297
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether an inactivated Pseudomonas aeruginosa injection, combined with an iodine wash, can reduce complications like infection and capsular contracture in women undergoing immediate breast reconstruction with implants after cancer surgery. The trial involves 100 participants and measures how quickly drainage tubes can be removed and how well the implant capsule forms. The goal is to improve recovery and patient satisfaction.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Inactivated Pseudomonas aeruginosa injection (PAP) and povidone-iodine
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could reduce infection and capsular contracture after breast reconstruction, improving recovery and satisfaction.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage trial with only 100 participants, so results may not apply widely. The treatment involves a bacterial injection, which could cause unexpected inflammation or side effects.
