About this study

Official title: 1.2% Rosuvastatin Versus 1.2% Atorvastatin Local Drug Delivery in Treatment of Intrabony Defects in Chronic Periodontitis: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The present study is designed as a single-centre, randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic efficacy of two local drug delivery systems containing 1.2% RSV gel and 1.2% ATV gel in treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis as an adjunct to SRP.

Read the detailed description

Background: Rosuvastatin (RSV) and Atorvastatin (ATV) are known to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption and were proposed to have osteostimulative properties by causing osteoblast differentiation in vivo and in vitro as shown by an increase in matrix formation. The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of 1.2% RSV and 1.2% ATV gel as local drug delivery systems in adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) for the treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP).

Methods: A total of 90 intrabony defects were treated with either 1.2% RSV, 1.2% ATV or placebo gel LDD after SRP. Clinical parameters (plaque index, modified sulcus bleeding index, probing depth and clinical attachment level) were recorded at baseline and 6 months. Radiographic intrabony defect depth change was calculated on standardized radiographs by using image analysis software at 6 months.

Being tested
SRP with RSV gel LDD, SRP with ATV gel LDD, SRP with placebo gel LDD

    After SRP, 1.2% Atorvastatin (ATV) gel was delivered subgingivally into the pocket

  • SRP with placebo gel LDDDrug

    After SRP, placebo gel was delivered subgingivally into the pocket

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing SRP with RSV gel LDD and SRP with ATV gel LDD in people with Chronic Periodontitis, run by Government Dental College and Research Institute, Bangalore.

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 1 inclusion and 8 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 13 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Change in intrabony defect depth from baseline to 6 months (time frame: Baseline to 6 months). 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 13 Nov 2015.
