About this study

Statins are specific competitive inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, known for its hypolipidemic actions, possessing biologically significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, exerts anabolic effects on bone through expression of BMP - 2, have paved way in periodontal regeneration. The present study aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of subgingivally delivered 1.2% Atorvastatin (ATV) and 1.2% Simvastatin (SMV) gel local drug delivery and redelivery systems as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in chronic periodontitis (CP) subjects with diabetes mellitus(DM).

Clinical and radiographic measurements were taken at baseline, at 6 months and respective gels were redelivered subgingivally in respective groups . Measurements were repeated again at 3 months i.e. 9 months from baseline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing ATORVASTATIN and SIMVASTATIN in people with Chronic Periodontitis Wth Diabetes Mellitus, 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 19 Nov 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 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?

change in defect depth (time frame: 6 and 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 19 Nov 2018.
