What is being measured

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

  1. Oral Tolerance as Assessed by Clinical Examinations of Oral Hard and Soft Tissues

    Oral tissue tolerance will include the assessment of the number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and those experiencing investigational product-related AEs throughout the observational study period of 14 days. In particular, oral examinations will include clinical evaluation of soft and hard tissues, such as buccal and sublingual mucosa, tongue, hard and soft palate, gingiva, uvula, oropharynx, teeth, and dental restorations, with findings recorded in the electronic data capture (EDC) system.

    Measured: Up to Day 14

  2. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant temporally associated with the clinical investigation, whether or not the event has a causal relationship to the participant's participation in the trial.

    Measured: Up to Day 14

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Salivary Flow Rate

    Saliva samples will be collected by participants at specified timepoints. The final amount of saliva will be weighed and flow rate will be determined.

    Measured: Taken at Baseline and immediately (0), and at 2.5, 5, 10, 15, and 30 minute timepoints

  2. Saliva Potential of Hydrogen (pH)

    The pH value of saliva will be measured by placing the saliva sample onto the pH-sensitive electrode.

    Measured: Taken at Baseline and immediately (0), and at 2.5, 5, 10, 15, and 30 minute timepoints

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Listerine Experimental Mouthwash, Colgate Cavity Protection Toothpaste and Listerine Total Care Zero in people with Healthy, run by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. (J&JCI) at 1 site in United States.

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 13 inclusion and 16 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 12 Jan 2024. 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Oral Tolerance as Assessed by Clinical Examinations of Oral Hard and Soft Tissues (time frame: Up to Day 14). The study lists 2 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 NCT06010758, 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 12 Jan 2024.
