Trial summary

The aim of this exploratory study is to assess the ability of two test toothpastes containing 0.6% w/w zinc chloride stabilised with sodium citrate in a sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)-containing base to reduce glycolytic metabolism and viability of de novo plaque bacteria using the plaque glycolysis regrowth model (PGRM).

What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Curve for Glycolysis (AUCgly(0-90)) of Test Zinc-IPMP and Non-SLS Negative Control

    AUCgly(0-90) of Test zinc-IPMP and non-SLS negative control was calculated using trapezoidal method.

    Measured: Baseline up to 90 minutes (min)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. AUCgly(0-90) for Test Zinc-IPMP, Test Zinc Non-IPMP, Positive Control, Non-SLS Negative Control and SLS Negative Control

    AUCgly(0-90) for test zinc-IPMP, test zinc non-IPMP, positive control, non-SLS negative control and SLS negative control was calculated using trapezoidal method.

    Measured: Baseline up to 90 min

  2. AUCregrowth(0-90) for Test Zinc-IPMP, Test Zinc Non-IPMP, Positive Control, Non-SLS Negative Control and SLS Negative Control

    AUCregrowth(0-90) for test zinc-IPMP, test zinc non-IPMP, positive control, non-SLS negative control and SLS negative control was calculated using trapezoidal method.

    Measured: Baseline up to 90 min

  3. AUClive:Dead(0-90) for Test Zinc-IPMP, Test Zinc Non-IPMP, Positive Control, Non-SLS Negative Control and SLS Negative Control

    AUClive:dead(0-90) for test zinc-IPMP, test zinc non-IPMP, positive control, non-SLS negative control and SLS negative control was calculated using trapezoidal method.

    Measured: Baseline up to 90 min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Test zinc-IPMP toothpaste and Test zinc non- IPMP toothpaste in people with Dental Plaque, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 30 Aug 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 Kingdom. 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 3 Mar 2017). 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?

Area Under the Curve for Glycolysis (AUCgly(0-90)) of Test Zinc-IPMP and Non-SLS Negative Control (time frame: Baseline up to 90 minutes (min)). 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 30 Aug 2017.
