Study groups in NCT00881959
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1: Puros DermisExperimentalExperimental treatment group of subjects who each have a single non-adjacent Miller's Class I or II gingival recession defect, greater than or equal to 2 mm, located on the buccal aspect of the maxillary incisor, canine, or premolar.
Receives: Device: Puros® Dermis versus Alloderm®
Group 2: AllodermActive comparatorControl group of subjects who each have a single non-adjacent Miller's Class I or II gingival recession defect, greater than or equal to 2 mm, located on the buccal aspect of the maxillary incisor, canine, or premolar.
Receives: Device: Puros® Dermis versus Alloderm®

What is being measured

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

  1. Non -Inferiority of Dermis to Alloderm

    Non -inferiority of Dermis to Alloderm will be assessed by comparison of the average change (from the preoperative value) in gingival recession measured at 12 months between defects receiving Puros Dermis and those receiving Alloderm.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Puros® Dermis versus Alloderm® in people with Gingival Recession, run by Zimmer Biomet at 4 sites in United States.

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 9 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 27 May 2015. 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 United States. 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 27 May 2015). 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?

Non -Inferiority of Dermis to Alloderm (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 27 May 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
