About this study

Official title: Avaliação da Carga do vírus SARS-CoV-2 na Cavidade Oral e na Saliva após desinfecção Com soluções Antimicrobianas Orais e dentifrícios.

The aim of this study is to analyze if the use of oral antimicrobial solutions and dentifricies are able to reduce the SARS-CoV-2 load in the saliva and oral mucosa. It will be allocated hospitalized patients positive for SARS-CoV-2 (confirmed by RT-PCR of nasopharynx swab tests) and with signs and symptoms of COVID-19. These patients will be divided into two groups: patients enrolled in negative pressure rooms (NPR), and patients enrolled in intensive care units (ICU) with orotracheal intubation. These two groups will receive interventions with oral antimicrobial solutions or dentifrices, containing different compounds. Saliva and oral mucosa swabs will be collected before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and after 30min and 1h. The primary outcome is to verify if these products can reduce the SARS-CoV-2 load in the saliva and oral mucosa at these time periods, detected by the measurement of the viral load and the fold-reduction.

Read the detailed description

Each group of patients will receive specific interventions, as follows:

NPR group (n=60) - three interventions with different mouthwashes solutions (12 patients in each intervention): 1) 0.12% chlorhexidine solution (Colgate Periogard®); 2) mouthwash with 1.5% hydrogen peroxide solution (Colgate Peroxyl®); 3) mouthwash with 0.075% cetylpyridinium chloride solution (Colgate Total 12®); 4) 1.5% hydrogen peroxide solution plus 0.12% chlorhexidine solution (Colgate Peroxyl® followed by Colgate Periogard®).

The interventions will be compared with a Placebo, which will be a mouthwash with distilled water (n=12).

NPR group (n=90) - three interventions with different dentifrices (30 patients in each intervention): 1) dentifrice containing only 1.1% fluoride, water, glycerin, cellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium bicarbonate; 2) dentifrice containing 0.32% fluoride, 0.96% zinc, arginine, poloxamer, glycerin, water, hydrated silica, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium saccharin 3) dentifrice containing 0.454% stannous fluoride, water, sorbitol, hydrated silica, glycerin, tetrasodium pyrophosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, and xanthan gum .

The interventions will be compared to each other. ICU group (n=52)- two interventions with different oral antimicrobial solutions (26 patients in each intervention): 1) 0.12% chlorhexidine solution (Colgate Periogard®); 2) 1.5% hydrogen peroxide solution plus 0.12% chlorhexidine solution (Colgate Peroxyl® followed by Colgate Periogard®).

The interventions will be compared to each other.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2022. 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. 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.

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?

Reduction of SARS-CoV-2 load in the oral mucosa and saliva (time frame: 1 hour). 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 NCT04537962, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 25 Feb 2022.
