About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Efficacy of a Hexetidine- and Chlorobutanol-based Mouthwash in the Symptomatic Treatment of Oral Lesions Due to Removable Prostheses: a Prospective, Randomized, Triple-blind Controlled Clinical Trial

Objectives: The study aimed at assessing the efficacy of a new mouthwash in treating oral lesions due to removable prostheses.

Methods: The present prospective randomized clinical trial was performed on 44 patients. The experimentation lasted for 4 weeks and 4 operators participated. The effects of the mouthwash were evaluated subjectively and objectively, with questionnaires, Visual Analogic Scales and clinical examinations. The results were statistically analyzed. The following variables were recorded: presence of mucosal lesions due to incongruous removable prostheses and lasting of pain after rinsing.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the present prospective, randomized, triple-blind controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy of an innovative mouthwash (emulsion) in the treatment of lesions of oral mucosae due to removable prostheses. The tested preparation contained two active molecules: a topical antiseptic (0.1% hexetidine) and a local anesthetic (0.5% chlorobutanol).

Conditions
Oral Mucositis
Being tested
chlorobutanol, hexetidine, Chlorhexidine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing chlorobutanol, hexetidine and Chlorhexidine in people with Oral Mucositis, run by Federico II University at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 1 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 3 May 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of tolerability (time frame: Weekly). 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 3 May 2010.
