About this study

Official title: Effect of Curodont Repair in Patients With Early Approximal Carious Lesions: A Mono-centre, Controlled, Single-blinded, Randomised, Post-marketing Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic benefit of Curodont Repair for the treatment of early approximal carious lesions compared to no treatment.

Read the detailed description

All study participants must have two early approximal carious lesions in need of a treatment but not of an invasive treatment (split-mouth design). One lesion will be treated with Curodont Repair and the other will not undergo a treatment as control. Study duration is 12 months. For assessment x-ray pictures are used.

What is being measured

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

  1. Opaqueness on X-Ray

    The primary efficacy outcome is the difference of the change in the opaqueness of the carious lesion on the x-ray picture from Day 0 to Day 365 between test and control group.

    Measured: Day 360

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Curodont Repair in people with Dental Caries, run by Credentis AG at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 11 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 Jan 2016. 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 Switzerland. 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?

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?

Opaqueness on X-Ray (time frame: Day 360). 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 NCT02119507, 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 27 Jan 2016.
