About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Osteogenic Potential of Cissus Quadrangularis on Mandibular Alveolar Ridge Distraction

Deficient alveolar mandibular ridge corrected distraction osteogenesis to facilitate dental implant placement. Patients grouped into 2 groups: one group received Cissus quadrangularis during the consolidation period, and the other group received placebo.

Read the detailed description

OPGs were taken immediately after distractor placement, at end of activation period, at 1st,2nd month of consolidation period, and at end of consolidation period. Change in bone height was evaluated immediately after distractor placement, at end of activation and end of consolidation periods.

CBCT were taken immediately after implant installation, and 6 months later to evaluate change bone density and marginal bone level about the dental implant.

histological evaluation was done by biopsy obtained, by trephine bur, from implant site during its preparation. The bone biopsy fixed in 4% formalin solution for 7 days, rinsed in water, and dehydrated in sequent phases of ethanol (70, 80, 90, and 100%) and then specimens were stained by hematoxylin- eosin for microscopic evaluation.

What participants receive

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

  • Cissus QuadrangularisDrug

    Also called Hadiod capsule

    Drug with osteogenic potential given to the patients after consolidation period. dose was two capsules once /day with meals for 6 weeks

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1Placebo comparatorPlacebo was given to ten patients during consolidation period ( 2 capsule daily for 6 months during consolidation period)

Group 2ExperimentalCissus quadrangularis in form of capsules given to ten patients ( 2 capsule daily for 6 months during consolidation period)
Receives: Drug: Cissus Quadrangularis

What is being measured

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

  1. Bone gain after distraction

    Increase in bone height after distraction

    Measured: immediately at end of distractor activation

  2. Relapse after distraction

    Relapse evaluated on panorama

    Measured: 3 months from beginning of consolidation period

  3. Crestal bone loss around dental implant

    By using cone beam CT, crestal bone level around implant evaluated by measuring a distance from implant apex to a point on dental implant where bone contacts the dental implant mesially and distally. then average of bone loss round each implant was obtained.

    Measured: 6 months from implant placement

  4. Bone density around dental implant

    By using cone beam CT, bone density assessed around dental implant at crestal, middle, and apical portions then average was obtained

    Measured: 6 months from implant placement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cissus Quadrangularis in people with Distraction of Bone and Dental Implant, run by Al-Azhar University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 17 Dec 2020. 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 Egypt. 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 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.

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?

Bone gain after distraction (time frame: immediately at end of distractor activation). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04669795, 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 17 Dec 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
