Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial is to investigate whether pre-pectoral Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction (IBBR) provides better Quality of Life (QoL) with respect to long-term (24 months) physical well-being (chest) compared to sub-pectoral IBBR for patients undergoing skin-sparing mastectomy or nipple-sparing mastectomy for prevention or treatment of breast cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This trial is to investigate whether pre-pectoral Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction (IBBR) provides better Quality of Life (QoL) with respect to long-term (24 months) physical well-being (chest) compared to sub-pectoral IBBR for patients undergoing skin-sparing mastectomy or nipple-sparing mastectomy for prevention or treatment of breast cancer.The aim is to adhere to standard of care as much as possible to follow the pragmatic trial design to generate data that are applicable to today's practice. Therefore, surgeons are allowed to use their preferred Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM), synthetic meshes, expanders and implants, thereby offering practitioners considerable leeway in deciding how to perform the procedure. For the same reason, both the one- and two-staged IBBR approaches are allowed when studying pre- versus sub-pectoral IBBR.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

The study will objectively assess the results and complication of two surgical techniques and thus provide evidence to assess whether there are differences between these techniques.
