E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Fat grafting e.g. to the breast to restore small tissue defects is a very common and safe surgical procedure. Its main success among other is depended on the survival rate of the transferred fat tissue. The survival rate is very unpredictable and varies from 16-70%. This study will examine impact of autologous PRP-Lysate as a enrichment to fat grafts with the assumption to enhance the survival rate. |

E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Fat grafting to the breast has a unpredictable outcome. This study will examine impact of autologous PRP-Lysate as a enrichment to fat grafts with the assumption to enhance the survival rate. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to evaluate efficacy of enrichment of fat grafts with autologous platelet lysate to enhance the fat graft take potential in women with breast augmentation. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To assess the safety of autologous platelet-lysate enriched fat graft in women with breast augmentation To evaluate if the addition of autologous platelet-lysate enriched fat graft will reduce the incidence of fat necrosis, cyst formation and nodules in women with breast augmentation To evaluate the effect of autologous platelet-lysate enriched fat graft on the patient reported quality of life |

Patients with diabetes mellitus under treatment, end-stage renal disease and patients on dialysis, patients with severe cardiovascular condition requiring chronic treatment) -Laboratory criteria: hemoglobin < 12g/dl, CRP > 5mg/dl, platelets < 150 or > 400 tsd./µl, leucocytes < 4,4 or > 11,3 tsd./µl -Blood donation within 4 weeks before study initiation -Patients with connective tissue disease OR is currently being evaluated for symptoms suggestive of connective tissue disease -Any other condition the investigator believes would interfere with the patient’s ability to provide informed consent, comply with study instructions, or which might confound the interpretation of the study results or put the patient at undue risk |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Breast volume measurement with MRI is a surrogate of fat survival rate. Since interest lies in the clinical relevance of the new treatment, statistical analysis will be performed primarily by the intention-to-treat principle and secondarily by the per-protocol principle. A zero change in fat-survival rate will be imputed for non-available measurements. Main outcome parameter is the fat-survival rate at 12 weeks after first surgery, which is a continuous variable. The fat-survival rate will be compared between the aPL and the control treatment using a paired t-test with a 0.05 two-sided significance level. A 95% confidence interval for the mean difference will be computed. |

E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Difference in volume at week 1, week 12 and week 24 after first surgery between left and right breast and comparison pre-operatively to the given time-point and time dependent change in volume breast volume difference after 2 intervention (1 week to 12 week after second intervention) Breast volume at Visit 9 BREASTQ HRQOL SAE, AEs, related to study intervention PRP comparison with historical group to aPL (Comparison of efficacy of aPL enrichment of fat graft versus efficacy of autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) enrichment of fat graft to the breast (Comparator-historical group from literature search) in literature comparison.
Secondary outcome parameters which are measurable at each side will be analysed similarly applying the per-protocol principle. |
