Trial summary

The overall objective of the study is to compare treatment with the ASTRA TECH Implant System, OsseoSpeed™ implant in the maxilla of postmenopausal women with and without systemic osteoporosis.

About this study

Official title: An Open, Prospective, Non-randomized, Controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Clinical Outcome of the ASTRA TECH Implant System, OsseoSpeed™ Implant in Women Over 60 Years of Age With Osteoporosis/Osteopenia

The overall objective of the study is to compare treatment with the ASTRA TECH Implant System, OsseoSpeed™ implant in the maxilla of postmenopausal women with and without systemic osteoporosis. The hypothesis is that there will be no difference in marginal bone level alterations between the two groups.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Marginal Bone Level Alterations

    Marginal Bone Level determined from radiographs and expressed as the difference from a reference point on the implant to the most coronal bone-to-implant contact on the mesial and distal aspect of the implant. Marginal Bone Level expressed in millimeters at the 5 year follow-up visit compared to values obtained at time of loading of the permanent restoration (baseline).

    Measured: Evaluated at time of loading of the permanent restoration and at the 5 years follow-up after loading.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OsseoSpeed™ in people with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis and Osteopenia, run by Dentsply Sirona Implants and Consumables at 4 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Sweden, Belgium, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Nov 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Marginal Bone Level Alterations (time frame: Evaluated at time of loading of the permanent restoration and at the 5 years follow-up after loading.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00745121, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Nov 2019.
