About this study

Official title: Multicentric Clinical Trials on the Prevalence of Entamoeba Gingivalis and Its Associated Bacterial Flora in Patients With Periodontitis

The buccal cavity is colonized by numerous microorganisms whose the number and composition could be modified with medical background (diseases and drugs) and the level of oral hygiene of the patients. Among all microorganisms identified in the periodontium, few of them are implicated in the etiopathogenesis of periodontal pathologies. To date, four major bacteria are identified for their ability to degrade periodontal tissues.

Although the periodontitis is established to be the consequence of bacterial virulence and immune dysfunction, these factors fail to explain the refractory periodontitis of some patients to etiologic treatment .

Others microorganisms such as protozoans could have an impact on this disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. presence of protozoans

    identification of protozoans by molecular technique (PCR) -

    Measured: 6 months after the last inclusion: DNA samples were frozen and identified later.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Periodontal pocket depth (PPD in mm)

    Measure of PPD thanks to periodontal probe

    Measured: One day: measure realised during examination of the patient for periodontal treatment.

  2. Clinical attachment Loss (CAL in mm)

    Measure of CAL with periodontal probe

    Measured: One day: measure realied during clincal examination of patient.

  3. Plaque and gingival index

    Measure of plaque and gingival index (Loe and Silness, Silness and Loe)

    Measured: One day: measure of index during the clinical examination of patient.

  4. Mobility of tooth

    Measure of tooth mobility: Yes or not

    Measured: One day: measure of tooth mobility during the clinical examination of patient.

  5. Bleeding On Probing (BOP)

    Measure of BOP : Yes or not

    Measured: One day: measure of BOP during the clinical examination of patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis, Adult, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2021. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact El Mehdi SIAGHY (+33 383 15 52 85, m.siaghy@chru-nancy.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

presence of protozoans (time frame: 6 months after the last inclusion: DNA samples were frozen and identified later.). 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 21 Apr 2021.
