Study of GalaFLEX LITE™ Scaffold in Treatment of Capsular Contracture After Breast Implant Augmentation

Capsular contracture is the number one complication leading to revision surgery after breast augmentation(2-4) which has been commonly cited as impacting 10 to 20% of all breast augmentation patients.(5-10) A prospective, randomized controlled study of patients presenting with Baker grade III or IV capsular contracture will be undertaken to investigate the ability of P4HB (specifically GalaFLEX LITE™ Scaffold) to reduce the recurrence of clinically significant CC and/or malposition requiring surgical correction. The primary endpoint is a composite of capsular contracture recurrence and/or breast implant malposition recommended for surgery OR breast infections requiring oral or IV antibiotic treatment within 90 days of surgery and/or peri-implant fluid collection needing a drainage procedure within 10-90 days of surgery.
