What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants That Met the Success Criteria of Radiographic and Clinical Measurements

    The primary effectiveness endpoint is a composite endpoint that considers radiographic and clinical measurements at six months post-implantation: the amount of linear bone growth (LBG), which is assessed with the use of radiographs, and the regain from baseline of clinical attachment level (∆CAL), which is assessed clinically. Linear bone growth (LBG) in a vertical and horizontal direction is determined radiographically at six months post-implantation. The clinical attachment level (CAL) is the distance from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) (or other fixed reference point) generally along the long axis of the tooth to the deepest extent of the periodontal pocket. The success criteria are ΔCAL ≥1.5 mm and LBG ≥1 mm at 6 months after the treatment. Both the ∆CAL and LBG must meet the success criteria for a subject to be considered a success.

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change in Clinical Attachment Level at 3 Months

    The clinical attachment level is the distance from the cemento-enamel junction (or other fixed reference point) generally along the long axis of the tooth to the deepest extent of the periodontal pocket. Change = (3 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-surgery

  2. Change in Clinical Attachment Level at 6 Months

    The clinical attachment level is the distance from the cemento-enamel junction (or other fixed reference point) generally along the long axis of the tooth to the deepest extent of the periodontal pocket. Change = (6 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months post-surgery

  3. Linear Bone Growth at 6 Months

    Linear measurement of bone height in millimeters along mesial and/or distal root surfaces of the defect site is captured radiographically at baseline and 6 months. Linear Bone Growth = (Baseline measurement - 6 months measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months post-surgery

  4. Percent Bone Fill at 6 Months

    Linear measurement of bone height in millimeters along mesial and/or distal root surfaces of the defect site is captured radiographically at baseline and 6 months. Percent Bone Fill is calculated by dividing Linear Bone Growth at 6 months by bone height at baseline.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months post-surgery

  5. Pocket Depth Change at 3 Months

    Length from free gingival margin to the base of the pocket in millimeter is measured with North Carolina 15 mm periodontal probes. Pocket Depth Change = (3 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-surgery

  6. Pocket Depth Change at 6 Months

    Length from free gingival margin to the base of the pocket in millimeter is measured with North Carolina 15 mm periodontal probes. Pocket Depth Change = (6 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months post-surgery

  7. Change in Gingival Recession at 3 Months

    Length from the free gingival margin to the CEJ is measured in millimeter with North Carolina 15 mm periodontal probes. Gingival Recession = (3 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-surgery

  8. Change in Gingival Recession at 6 Months

    Length from the free gingival margin to the CEJ is measured in millimeter with North Carolina 15 mm periodontal probes. Gingival Recession = (6 months measurement - Baseline measurement)

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing beta-tricalcium phosphate alone, GFeBGS 0.1% and GFeBGS 0.3% in people with Alveolar Bone Loss and Periodontal Diseases, run by Sunstar Americas at 6 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 9 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 17 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 21 Aug 2020). 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?

Number of Participants That Met the Success Criteria of Radiographic and Clinical Measurements (time frame: 6 months post-surgery). 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 NCT01728844, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Sep 2020.
