Trial summary

Self-assembling peptide (P11-4) exhibited an outstanding ability for biomimetic re-mineralization of incipient enamel carious lesions. It creates a 3D matrix within the subsurface of carious lesions, allowing de novo formation of Hydroxyapatite crystals, thus enabling guided enamel regeneration of the demineralized… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Remineralization Potential of Self Assembling Peptide P11-4 Combined With Fluoride Compared to Fluoride Varnish in Management of Incipient Carious Lesions Using Laser Fluorescence: Randomized Clinical Trial

Self-assembling peptide (P11-4) exhibited an outstanding ability for biomimetic re-mineralization of incipient enamel carious lesions. It creates a 3D matrix within the subsurface of carious lesions, allowing de novo formation of Hydroxyapatite crystals, thus enabling guided enamel regeneration of the demineralized enamel structure. Addition of fluoride to P11-4 may have a synergistic effect on the remineralization potential.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized clinical trial, with parallel study design, 1:1 allocation ratio and superiority framework. The aim of the current trial is to evaluate remineralization potential of P11-4 combined with fluoride compared to fluoride varnish in management of incipient white spot carious lesions. Progress of the lesions will be assessed using laser fluorescence (DIAGNOdent).

Conditions
Caries; Initial
Being tested
Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus, Bifluorid 10 fluoride varnish

What is being measured

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

  1. Remineralization

    measuring carious lesion development using DIAGNOdent laser fluorescence (scores from 0 to 99) according to progression of the carious lesion

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus and Bifluorid 10 fluoride varnish in people with Caries; Initial, run by Cairo 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Oct 2021. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Omar O Shaalan, PhD (00201122665661, omar.shaalan@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Remineralization (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05094492, 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 26 Oct 2021.
