Trial summary

Periodontal diseases are one of the most prevalent chronic diseases involving a spectrum of inflammatory conditions. Intrabony defects, also known "vertical defects," are specific osseous and morphological defects and one of the consequences and end result of periodontitis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of an Algae-Based Biphasic Bone Graft Material and Collagen Membrane in the Treatment of Periodontal Intrabony Defects: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Periodontal diseases are one of the most prevalent chronic diseases involving a spectrum of inflammatory conditions. Intrabony defects, also known "vertical defects," are specific osseous and morphological defects and one of the consequences and end result of periodontitis. Intrabony defects are particularly associated with periodontal progression however certain patient-related factors play important role in its management such as plaque management, smoking, medical history, tooth mobility and endodontic condition.

Periodontal repair is aimed to gain periodontal attachment using various modalities in severely compromised teeth, decrease pocket depth, and stabilize gingival recession. Different types of biomaterial substitutes and bone graft materials are available, but the choice of suitable "golden" type or technique is difficult and dependent on various factors particularly anatomical variations, cost effective, clinical situations, the systemic general condition, operation site, socioeconomic conditions and the surgeon choice.

The current therapeutic options mainly focus on minimize symptoms and prevent disease progression but are not able to fully restore damaged bone and periodontal supporting tissues. Many of these regenerative approaches, (e.g. bone grafts) provided variable and unpredictable clinical outcomes. Therefore, it is imperative to develop alternative regenerative strategies.

There is necessity to introduce novel and alternative materials of natural and synthetic origins for bone grafting use in dental field. This requires well performed clinical trials on humans to understand the effects of such materials (e.g the marine algae-based substitutes and biodegradable (absorbable) materials) either as a single or combined formula.

The aim of the current clinical study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of an algae-based biphasic bone graft material (AlgOss 20/80) and collagen membrane in the treatment of patient with intrabony periodontal defects.

  • Clinical attachment level (CAL)

Secondary outcomes:

  • Bleeding on probing (BOP)
  • Plaque index (PI)
  • Probing pocket depth (PPD)
  • Gingival recession (GR)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Conventional flap with algae-based substitute (AlgOss) combined with collagen membrane.Combination product

    The graft material will be prepared following the manufacturer instruction, transferred into a sterile cup than the mixture is condensed without overfilling in the intrabony defect to the level of the surrounding bony walls. The filled site will be than covered with collagen membrane.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical attachment level (CAL)

    The CAL will be measured from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the base of the sulcus or pocket

    Measured: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented progression i.e.at least12 months after the last enrolment.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Probing pocket depth (PPD)

    Probing pocket depth (PPD):

    PPD is determined by measuring the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the sulcus or pocket with a calibrated periodontal probe.

    Measured: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented progression i.e.at least12 months after the last enrolment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Conventional flap with algae-based substitute (AlgOss) combined with collagen membrane. in people with Intrabony Periodontal Defect and Periodontitis, 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 5 inclusion and 4 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Oct 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Clinical attachment level (CAL) (time frame: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented progression i.e.at least12 months after the last enrolment.). 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 NCT06633640, 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 10 Oct 2024.
