About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1α as a Periodontal Disease Biomarker in Oral Rinse: A Cross Sectional Study

Periodontal disease is a chronic progressive state of inflammation pertaining to supporting tissues of the dentition that culminates in loss of the affected teeth. Currently, diagnosis and monitoring of periodontal disease progression is accomplished by performing a full-mouth clinical and radiological examination which is time-consuming and also requires elaborate infrastructure and equipment, which are not always available. Limitations of the conventional diagnostic techniques necessitate the development of point-of-care testing (POCT) which could serve as a rapid, feasible and affordable screening tool for periodontal disease.MIP-1α is a cysteine-cysteine (C-C) chemokine that is secreted by a variety of cells like macrophages, fibroblasts, epithelial cells and endothelial cells. They principally serve to recruit leukocytes like monocytes, T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, dendritic cells and granulocytes to the site of inflammation. Hence, the current study has a two fold aim; first, to determine the feasibility of MIP-1α as a periodontal disease biomarker; and second, to correlate the value of MIP-1α obtained from oral rinse sample with the periodontal disease severity.

Read the detailed description

Periodontal disease is a chronic progressive state of inflammation pertaining to supporting tissues of the dentition that culminates in loss of the affected teeth. The term broadly covers both gingivitis (inflammation of the gingival connective tissue) and periodontitis (loss of supporting alveolar bone as a consequence of sustained inflammatory load on the supportive periodontal tissues). Currently, diagnosis and monitoring of periodontal disease progression is accomplished by performing a full-mouth clinical and radiological examination which is time-consuming and also requires elaborate infrastructure and equipment, which are not always available. These limitations of the conventional diagnostic techniques necessitate the development of point-of-care testing (POCT) which could serve as a rapid, feasible and affordable screening tool for periodontal disease.

Of late, chemokines have become the subject of interest for potential application as biomarkers for periodontal screening. MIP-1α is a cysteine-cysteine (C-C) chemokine that is secreted by a variety of cells like macrophages, fibroblasts, epithelial cells and endothelial cells. They principally serve to recruit leukocytes like monocytes, T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, dendritic cells and granulocytes to the site of inflammation. The primary challenge faced by researchers in analysis of host derived oral biomarkers in any sample fluid is the establishment of normal level of various biomarkers. This problem arises as the biomarkers that are found at exaggerated levels in periodontal inflammation are also detected in oral fluids in healthy periodontium but at a much lower value.

Hence, the current study has a two fold aim; first, to determine the feasibility of MIP-1α as a periodontal disease biomarker; and second, to correlate the value of MIP-1α obtained from oral rinse sample with the periodontal disease severity.

Group 1: 30 periodontally healthy individuals.Group 1 comprises of 30 periodontally healthy individuals who have never been clinically diagnosed with periodontitis.
Group 2: 30 individuals with generalized gingivitisGroup 2 comprises of 30 participants diagnosed with generalized gingivitis according to the WWP 2017 classification.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1α (MIP-1α) level

    Evaluation of MIP-1α level in sample across 4 groups of systemically healthy individuals (periodontally healthy, generalized gingivitis, generalized stage I/II periodontitis, generalized stage III/IV periodontitis)

    Measured: 12-14 months

  2. To correlate the MIP-1α levels with clinical periodontal parameters

    To correlate the MIP-1α levels with clinical periodontal parameters (Gingival Index, Clinical Attachment Loss, Bleeding On Probing, Probing Pocket Depth)

    Measured: 12-14 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis Chronic Generalized Severe and Gingivitis, run by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak at 1 site in India.

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 2 inclusion and 13 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 15 Jan 2025. 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 India. 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?

Evaluation of Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1α (MIP-1α) level (time frame: 12-14 months). 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?
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 15 Jan 2025.
