About this study

The specific aim of the study is to determine the excess urinary fluoride and its time course after administration of an application of Premier Enamel Pro Varnish to the teeth of 12-15 month old infants. From these data the investigators can estimate the bioavailable (more precisely the equivalent) dose of sodium fluoride and the peak serum fluoride concentration that will allow an estimate of the margin of safety of the procedure.

Read the detailed description

Fluoride varnish painted on the teeth is the standard method dentists use to prevent tooth decay (cavities) in preschool children in the United States. Fluoride varnish is not FDA approved specifically for prevention of cavities, but dentists may legally use it for this purpose. We want to study how much fluoride appears in the urine after the painting procedure to improve our knowledge of how the varnish works and its safety. The fluoride varnish is being used for research purposes for this study by permission of FDA (IND #110869).

Premier Dental Product Company's Enamel Pro Varnish will be used. Up to six children aged 12-15 months will be enrolled in this study. We measured urinary fluoride for 5 hours after application of fluoride varnish to teeth. Baseline levels were measured on a separate day.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Fluoride varnish in people with Healthy, run by University of Washington at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 7 May 2018. 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Urinalysis for fluoride levels (time frame: 2 days). 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 NCT01754831, 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 7 May 2018.
