About this study

Background Three-dimensional (3D) imaging and subsequent 3D virtual treatment planning are becoming state of the art in orthognathic surgery. However, current available software is still too time-consuming. KLS Martin (Tuttlingen, Germany) has currently completed the preclinical and the single surgeon (GS) closed beta-phase of their novel 3D virtual planning software, IPS (Individual Patient Solutions) CaseDesigner (IPSCD).

Objectives The investigators aim to test pre-release versions of the IPSCD software under real-world working conditions in strictly selected university, general and private hospital settings. In specific, they aim to demonstrate that the IPSCD will ensure a significant reduction in treatment planning time.

Study design closed beta-phase; international, multi-centric, prospective study Patients presenting at the division of maxillofacial surgery at the different hospital centers, for an orthognathic-related problem will receive a complete routine work-up, including a cone-beam CT (CBCT) according to the IPSCD protocol. The same surgeon and/or orthodontist will run all the virtual planning steps with the novel software. Timing of the eight major steps will be measured with a digital chronometer.

One hundred and eight patient cases will be planned with the IPSCD software in the participating centers over a period of three months, in the order of respectively one, three and five cases per month per participating center.

Investigators will register anonymized patient demographics (age, gender, clinical diagnosis, type of surgery), and provide feedback regarding the required time to complete the different surgical planning steps, regarding the number of failed alignments, and the occurrence of software bugs. Intergroup comparison of virtual planning time between the different centers will be analyzed. In addition, the learning effect will be examined through comparison of the different cases planned by the same surgeon and/or orthodontist, or in comparison to the initial beta-testing phase results by GS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Orthognathic Surgery, run by AZ Sint-Jan AV.

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 4 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 17 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

required time to complete total 3D virtual planning (time frame: preoperative). 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 17 Jun 2019.
