About this study

Comparative Evaluation of Bromelain-Quercetin Gel With Chlorhexidine Gel as Subgingival Local Drug Delivery Following Scaling and Root Planing In Stage I /II and Grade B Periodontitis - Randomized Control Clinical Trail

Read the detailed description

: Periodontitis is a biofilm associated disease that induces an irreversible inflammatory state that leads to the destruction of the supporting structure of the teeth. Management of periodontal disease is through thorough removal of biofilm which is pivotal for having better oral health. Scaling and root planning (SRP) is fundamental treatment for periodontitis. Years of documented research have established that chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX), gold standard of chemical plaque control agent is safe stable and effective in preventing and controlling plaque formation. Bromelain is an extract derived from Ananas comosus (popularly known as pineapple), contains proteinases that exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, antibacterial effect against periodontopathogens. Bromelain gel has shown to have chemicomechanical method of caries removal. Quercetin present in guava have excellent antibacterial actions against periodontal pathogens, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Prevotella intermedia (Pi) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn). 2% Quercetin has shown to be advantageous for subgingival application after scaling and rootplaning. Bromelain-Quercetin gel has shown adjunctive effect for treatment in covid-19 patients. As there is less literature in this combination, we intend to study its effects. Individually bromelain and quercetin have been studied for treatment in oral cavity as gel form. This study will be first of its kind to check the efficacy of 2% bromelain-quercetin gel and to compare its effects with 0.2% Chlorhexidine in stage I/II and grade B periodontits.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing bromelain-quercetin gel, chlorhexidine gel and SRP in people with Periodontal Pocket, run by Krishnadevaraya College of Dental Sciences & Hospital 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 6 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: 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

PROBING POCKET DEPTH (time frame: 21DAYS). 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.
