About this study

Official title: Radiographical, Histomorphometrical and Biomarker Analysis After Maxillary Sinus Augmentation Utilizing Xenograft Particulate Bone Graft Mixed With Parathyroid Hormone: A Randomized Controlled Study

This study aimed the to investigate the beneficial effect of combining PTH with bovine-derived bone graft bone in maxillary sinus augmentation.

There is limited information available about the effect of PTH on maxillary sinus augmentation to achieve a clear understanding of PTH's efficacy in bone regeneration and bone remodelling through radiological, clinical, biomarker, histological and histomorphometric assessment .

Objectives

  1. Evaluation of the bone density at the planned implants sites using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
  2. Histomorphometry examination of maxillary sinus bone to measure (bone trabeculae, connective tissue, osteoblast, osteocyte) after healing 4 months after augmentation.
  3. Osteopontin as biomarker analysis for bone regeneration and osteoblast activity.
  4. Evaluate the primary stability of implant in upper posterior area filled with PTH (1 34) and bovine-derived bone graft compared to bovine-derived bone graft alone.
Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Maxillary sinus augmentation in people with Maxillary Sinus Augmentation, run by University of Baghdad at 1 site in Iraq.

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 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2026. 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 Iraq. 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?

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?

Contact Mohanad Ali Ali Shabat, Msc,PhD student in Oral surgey (009647804305996, mohanadshabat@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bone density (time frame: follow up after 20 weeks after maxillary sinus augmentation). The study lists 3 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 9 Mar 2026.
