About this study

Official title: 1.2% Rosuvastatin Subgingivally Delivered In Treatment Of Chronic Periodontitis With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of subgingival delivery of 1.2% Rosuvastatin (RSV) gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in chronic periodontitis (CP) with Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Read the detailed description

Background: The purpose of this double-masked, randomized, controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the effects of subgingival delivery of 1.2% Rosuvastatin gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing (SRP) on clinical and radiographic parameters and compare this method with SRP plus placebo gel alone in chronic periodontitis (CP) with type 2 DM patients.

Methods: Eighty CP patients with type 2 DM are included in this study. They were divided into two groups: 1) SRP + 1.2% Rosuvastatin gel (RSV group); 2) SRP + Placebo gel (Placebo group). At baseline, 3, 6 and 9 months after treatment, clinical measurements, including plaque index (PI), modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and radiographic parameters intrabony defect depth (IBD), percentage change in radiographic defect depth reduction (DDR%) were assessed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing SRP plus Rosuvastatin gel in people with Chronic Periodontitis and Type2 Diabetes, run by Government Dental College and Research Institute, Bangalore at 1 site in India.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 7 Dec 2016. 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 India. 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. 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?

Defect depth reduction (%) (time frame: Change from baseline to 9 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 7 Dec 2016.
