About this study

Official title: PriMatrix Utilization to Achieve Dental Root Coverage

Can a fetal bovine derived membrane serve as an alternative to autogenous tissue for dental root coverage procedures.

Read the detailed description

PriMatrix (TEI Medical Inc) is a promising collagen membrane derived from fetal bovine dermis. The acellular porous structure of the membrane permits rapid re-vascularization and cellular re-population. The membrane contains a high proportion of type III collagen. Type III collagen helps regulate tissue healing by promoting neoepithelialization and angiogenesis. Wounds grafted with PriMatrix exhibited significantly faster healing rates compared to control wounds while having a minimal foreign body response and early repopulation by progenitor cells.

The ability of PriMatrix to permit neovascularization, reepithelialization, minimal immune response, and population by progenitor cells suggests that it may serve as an ideal alternative to CTG under CPF for root coverage. In this regard, the current study aims to serve as a pilot to test the feasibility of the use of PriMatrix as a graft material under a CPF to attain root coverage of Miller Class I \& II defects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete Root Coverage

    The percentage of sites showing complete root coverage will be calculated as a percent of treated defects with the marginal gingival located at or above the cement-enamel junction compared to the total defects treated.

    Measured: 6-months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Clinical Periodontal Parameters

    Determine keratinized tissue width of the augmented region using a UNC-15 mm periodontal probe.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  2. Clinical Periodontal Parameters

    Determine periodontal probing depths of the augmented region using a UNC-15 mm periodontal probe.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  3. Clinical Periodontal Parameters

    Determine tissue thickness of the augmented region using a UNC-15 mm periodontal probe.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  4. Clinical Periodontal Parameters

    Determine clinical attachment levels of the augmented region using a UNC-15 mm periodontal probe.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  5. Pain Levels

    Visual analog scale questionnaire will be completed consisting of 5 to 6 questions at each appointment.

    Measured: 1-week, 2-weeks, 4-weeks, and 6-months

  6. Mean Root Coverage Obtained

    Percentage of baseline root coverage obtained as a fraction of initial recession depth will be measured using a UNC-15 mm periodontal probe.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  7. Gingival Health

    Gingival health will be evaluated visually using Silness and Loe Gingival index.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  8. Plaque Levels

    Plaque levels will be evaluated using the Quigley and Hein plaque index.

    Measured: Baseline, 6-weeks, 4-months, and 6-months

  9. Esthetic Outcomes

    Visual analog scale questionnaire will be completed consisting of 5 to 6 questions at each appointment.

    Measured: 1-week, 2-weeks, 4-weeks, and 6-months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PriMatrix in people with Localized Gingival Recession, run by Mayo Clinic 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 9 inclusion and 27 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 25 Jul 2017. 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?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Complete Root Coverage (time frame: 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 25 Jul 2017.
