Trial summary

This study aims at investigating the role of platelet-rich fibrin in alveolar cleft secondary grafting. This grafting is done from the patient's chin using a computer-guided stent that is customized for each patient, and the cleft volume is analysed at first to estimate the needed amount of bone to be harvested.

What is being measured

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

  1. Closure of oronasal fistula

    • By questioning the patient if there's a nasal regurgitation or not.
    • Qualitative outcome (positive or negative).

    Measured: Ten days postoperatively

  2. Closure of oronasal fistula

    • By questioning the patient if there's a nasal regurgitation or not.
    • Qualitative outcome (positive or negative).

    Measured: Six months postoperatively

  3. Volume of newly formed bone

    • By computerized measurement on the Cone-Beam Computed Tomography software. (Volume tool in Invesalius ® software (Invesalius, CTI, Brazil)).
    • Quantitative outcome (in cubic millimetres (mm3)).

    Measured: Six months postoperatively

  4. Average density of newly formed bone

    • By computerized measurement on the Cone-Beam Computed Tomography software. (Average density tool in Invesalius ® software (Invesalius, CTI, Brazil)).
    • Quantitative outcome (in Hounsfield Units (HU)).

    Measured: Six months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Platelet-rich fibrin in people with Alveolar Bone Grafting, run by Mansoura 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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 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 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?

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?

Closure of oronasal fistula (time frame: Ten days postoperatively). 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?
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 16 Jun 2022.
