About this study

Official title: Enamel Matriz Derivate for Treatment of Proximal Class II Furcation Defects: a Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the clinical response of proximal furcations treated with enamel matrix derivative proteins (EMD).

Read the detailed description

Proximal class-II furcation represents a challeng to periodontal therapy. Studies show that the ultrasonic non-surgical therapy doesn't work in these defects and the guided tissue regeneration therapy with membranes also demonstrates an unpredictable improvement. Therefore, enamel matrix derivative proteins (EMD) have been proposed as a periodontal regenerative procedure due to their fundamental role in cementum development.

Being tested
Enamel matrix derivative proteins, Open Flap debridement
Keywords
enamel matrix derivative, proximal furcation, randomized clinical trial

What participants receive

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

  • Enamel matrix derivative proteinsProcedure or surgery

    Also called Surgical therapy

    Open flap debridement to enamel matrix derivative to treat proximal furcation involvements.

  • Open Flap debridementProcedure or surgery

    Also called Surgical therapy

    Open flap debridement will be performed to decontaminate the proximal furcation involvements.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Enamel matrix derivative proteins and Open Flap debridement in people with Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis, run by Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho at 1 site in Brazil.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 5 Jun 2019. 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 Brazil. 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?

Horizontal clinical attachment level (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT03320135, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 5 Jun 2019.
