Can a new implant rebuild the breast right after lumpectomy?
NCT ID NCT05941299
First seen Jul 22, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests a new breast implant called REGENERA in women aged 40–70 who are having a lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer. The implant is placed during the same surgery to fill the gap left by the removed tumor. The study aims to see if the implant is safe and whether surgeons find it easy to use, while also checking that it does not interfere with standard breast cancer imaging like mammograms.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a breast implant called REGENERA, made from a regenerative material, placed during lumpectomy surgery
- What this could lead to
- If safe and effective, REGENERA could offer a new option for breast reconstruction immediately after lumpectomy, potentially improving cosmetic outcomes without interfering with cancer follow-up imaging.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage device trial with only 92 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. Risks include implant-related complications such as infection, implant failure, or interference with cancer surveillance.
