Trial summary

Purpose: The goal of guided bone augmentation is to provide an alveolar ridge of sufficient dimension to permit dental implant placement. While a wide variety of bone graft and barrier membrane products are commercially available, limited evidence exists supporting the use of one technique over another. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective, Comparative Assessment of Alveolar Bone Augmentation Using Guidor Membrane in the Bound Edentulous Space

Purpose: The goal of guided bone augmentation is to provide an alveolar ridge of sufficient dimension to permit dental implant placement. While a wide variety of bone graft and barrier membrane products are commercially available, limited evidence exists supporting the use of one technique over another. The purpose of this study is to radiographically define the dimensional bone changes following horizontal bone augmentation using a synthetic GUIDOR® (Sunstar, Inc.) membrane. Secondary outcome measurements will include the assessment of inflammation, infection, or other wound healing complications.

Participants: A total of 60 patients requiring bone augmentation of a single bound edentulous site prior to dental implant placement will be selected for this study. This is a multicenter study with 30 patients receiving treatment at each study site.

Procedures (methods): Patients will be randomly allocated to receive horizontal bone augmentation with synthetic GUIDOR® membrane + freeze dried bone augmentation (FDBA), synthetic GUIDOR® membrane alone, or xenograft BioGide® membrane + FDBA. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging will be obtained at baseline and 6 months post-operatively to assess dimensional alveolar ridge changes. Additionally, post-operative appointments at 1, 2, and 4 weeks post-grafting will be completed to assess the presence of inflammation, infection, wound dehiscence, or membrane exposure.

Being tested
GUIDOR® membrane with FDBA, GUIDOR® membrane, Bio-Gide® membrane with FDBA

What is being measured

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

  1. Dimensional Bone Changes at 6 Months

    Dimensional bone changes will assessed by calculating horizontal width and vertical height changes using data from DICOM images acquired by Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

    Measured: 6 months after treatment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Inflammation

    The presence or absence of soft tissue erythema within 3 mm from the crestal incision in the edentulous site will be visually assessed at post-operative evaluations.

    Measured: 7 days, 14 days, 28 days, 6 months

  2. Infection

    The presence or absence of infection in the area of ridge augmentation will be assessed through visual evaluation and palpation. The presence of suppuration from the crestal incision or soft tissues adjacent to the localized ridge augmentation will be assessed through visual evaluation. Fluctuance in the area of the augmentation will be assessed through gentle palpation of the surgical site.

    Measured: 7 days, 14 days, 28 days, 6 months

  3. Membrane Exposure

    The presence of membrane exposure or soft tissue dehiscence will be visually assessed.

    Measured: 7 days, 14 days, 28 days, 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GUIDOR® membrane with FDBA, GUIDOR® membrane and Bio-Gide® membrane with FDBA in people with Bone Regeneration, run by University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill at 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 19 Jun 2019). 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?

Dimensional Bone Changes at 6 Months (time frame: 6 months after treatment). 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 25 Sep 2019.
