Trial summary

This is a pilot study to determine whether knowledge gained by an individual of genetic risk for severe periodontitis changes the patient's health behavior as measured by an increased frequency of their preventive dental office visits. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Engagement Study: (Multi-site, Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN) Prospective Clinical Trial to Assess if Knowledge of Genetic Risk Changes Behavior)

This is a pilot study to determine whether knowledge gained by an individual of genetic risk for severe periodontitis changes the patient's health behavior as measured by an increased frequency of their preventive dental office visits. In addition to the primary objectives of the study, the overall design and logistics will be used to inform a possible future study.

Read the detailed description

Data to be analyzed in this study will be gathered through a patient questionnaire, genetic testing and tracking of preventive dental office visits. Eight hundred (800) total participants will be randomly assigned to either the Usual Care or Experimental Groups. Two hundred participants will be assigned to the Usual Care Group and 600 will be assigned to the Experimental Group. It is anticipated that approximately 17% (~100) of the Experimental Group subjects will refuse to enroll in the study, leaving a final total of approximately 500 subject in this group. Within the Experimental Group, 125 subjects positive for the IL-1 genetic test (PerioPredict® Genetic Risk Test, Interleukin Genetics, Inc., Waltham, MA) will be identified and ~375 will test negative for the IL-1 genetic test.

The Sponsor will enter the subject's dental office registration number into a master spreadsheet and randomly assign every fourth patient to the Usual Care Group and all others will be assigned into the Experimental Group. Information about the study and informed consent will be made available by the dental office for the specific groups, either by directing to a website location with videos and ICFs, or alternatively by by dental office showing informational videos on provided tablet and gathering signed hardcopy ICFs at schedule first visit.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • IL-1 genetic test for risk of severe periodontitisGenetic

    Also called PerioPredict® Genetic Risk Test

    DNA obtained by cheek swab analyzed for four variations (SNPs) in the IL-1beta gene to determine whether patient is at elevated risk for more severe periodontal disease.

Study groups in NCT02749318
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Experimental GroupExperimentalConsented patients who complete the initial Experimental Group Questionnaire, receive a prophylaxis, have the IL-1 genetic test for risk of severe periodontitis performed, their dental records monitored for 18 months post-enrollment, and answer a Study Completion Questionnaire 18 months post-enrollment.

Usual Care GroupNo interventionConsented patients who complete the initial Usual Care Group Questionnaire, receive a prophylaxis and have their dental records monitored for 18 months post-enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. The number of preventive oral health care visits per patient (Dental office visit record review)

    Frequency of preventive oral health care visits within 18 months of enrollment.

    Measured: 18 months from enrollment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Questionnaire on patient demographics and dental healthcare behavior

    Reasons for not fully utilizing preventive oral health care insurance benefits

    Measured: At enrollment by survey

  2. Questionnaire on changes in oral health care behavior and attitudes on genetic testing

    Reasons for changes in frequency of preventive oral health care behaviors.

    Measured: 18 months after enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing IL-1 genetic test for risk of severe periodontitis in people with PERIODONTAL DISEASE, run by Interleukin Genetics, Inc..

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 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Sep 2017. 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. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

The number of preventive oral health care visits per patient (Dental office visit record review) (time frame: 18 months from enrollment). 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 NCT02749318, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Sep 2017.
