What is being measured

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

  1. Success at 3 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at three months following the application of the material

  2. Success at 6 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at six months following the application of the material

  3. Success at 9 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at 9 months following the application of the material

  4. Success at 12 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at 12 months following the application of the material

  5. Success at 18 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at 18 months following the application of the material

  6. Success at 24 months following capping

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

    Measured: the success of treatment is assessed at 24 months following the application of the material

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biodentine and MTA in people with Patients With Deep Carious Lesions, run by Damascus University at 1 site in Syria.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 3 Jan 2018. 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 Syria. 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?

Success at 3 months following capping (time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at three months following the application of the material). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02803528, which also lists 5 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 3 Jan 2018.
