About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Efficacy of Mucoadhesive Film with and Without Acmella Oleracea Extract and 0.1% Triamcinolone Acetonide for Treatment of Aphthous Ulcers: a Randomized Control Trial

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction of ulcer size after using product

    Reduction of ulcer size will be evaluated by measuring the diameter of ulcers size using a periodontal probe and photograph on the first day and each follow up visit.

    Measured: Base line, day4, day7, day10 and day 14

  2. Pain score

    The pain score will be assessed by using a visual analogue scale (VAS) which is a 10-cm line on that was labeled from \"no pain\"(0) to \"worst pain\" (10).The pain level will be recorded on the first day. The participants will then reassess their pain score again after receiving the intervention, which will be evaluated at each follow up visit.

    Measured: Base line, day4, day7, day10 and day 14

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Satisfaction score

    Participants\' satisfaction after using product will be assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) which is a 10-cm line on that was labeled from \"unsatisfied\" (0) to \"most satisfied\" (10). Satisfaction will be evaluated on the last day of follow-up.

    Measured: Day 14

  2. Quality of life score

    Oral health impact on quality of life will be evaluated using the Thai version of the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). The survey classified into 7 dimensions with 2 items per dimension included functional limitation, painful, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability, and handicap. Participants must choose the answer based on the frequency of problem occurrence. The frequency level is divided into 5 level: never= 0 point, rarely = 1 point, sometimes = 2 points, often = 3 points, always = 4 points. Total scores in each person range are between 0 to 56 points.The quality of life will be survey on the first and the last day of follow-up.

    Measured: base line and day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing mucoadhesive film with Acmella oleracea extract, Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1% Oromucosal Paste and mucoadhesive film without Acmella oleracea extract in people with Aphthous Stomatitis, run by Khon Kaen University.

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 11 inclusion and 9 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 2 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Kemporn Kitsahawong, Ph.D ((+66)91-4442699, kkempo@kku.ac.th), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reduction of ulcer size after using product (time frame: Base line, day4, day7, day10 and 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 NCT06622213, 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 2 Oct 2024.
