About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Parallel-group Autogenous ex Vivo Produced Oral Mucosa Equivalent vs. Palatal Oral Mucosa Safety and Efficacy Study in Subjects Requiring Additional Keratinized Oral Mucosa for Dental Implants

The purpose of this study is to improve the current standard of care of repairing mouth soft tissue defects.

Read the detailed description

This study will test a tissue equivalent ex vivo produced oral mucosa equivalent(EVPOME), which is a subject's own cells grown on top of a piece of AlloDerm (a commercially available freeze dried human cadaver tissue that is routinely used in present day surgical reconstructive procedures) to create a new piece of soft tissue for use only in that subject's body. The tissue equivalent product will be tested against a non-experimental method of grafts, the gold standard a piece of palatal oral mucosa (POM) to see which works best. Each subject will be randomly assigned to receive either the EVPOME or POM to cover the defect in their mouth. The objective of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy for the use of human EVPOME for soft tissue intraoral grafting procedures compared to the "gold standard" palatal oral mucosa (POM) graft.

Being tested
EVPOME (autogenous ex vivo produced oral mucosa equivalent), POM (Palatal oral mucosa)
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • EVPOME (autogenous ex vivo produced oral mucosa equivalent)Biological

    EVPOME is manufactured from the subjects own oral cells and is implanted back in the subjects mouth after an approximately 30 day manufacturing process.

  • POM (Palatal oral mucosa)Biological

    POM is a tissue graft harvested from the palate and surgically placed into the defect area

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Increase in Zone (Width) of Keratinized Mucosa at Grafted Site

    The keratinized mucosa (KM) width will be measured by determining the distance from the crest of the edentulous ridge to the mucogingival line to the nearest millimeter with a Castroviejo caliper. The keratinized mucosa width of study subjects was measured prior to graft placement and then after two weeks, and after 4 weeks. The data provided shows the difference in keratinized mucosa width between the pre surgery measure and the post surgery measure. More mucosa width (positive numbers in mm) is an improvement, negative numbers (a decrease) would be less good.

    Measured: 2 and 4 weeks post surgical graft

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Graft Contracture

    Graft measurements collected at each time point post graft surgery, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 24 weeks. Measurements collected, Horizontal Coronal (mm), Horizontal Apical (mm), Vertical between coronal and apical (mm), were used to determine the area of the graft as a trapezoid like shape. The area of the graft at each time point was compared to the area of the graft at the time of implantation (graft surgery) to determine the % of graft contracture from implantation thru each follow-up time point. Less graft contracture is considered a better outcome.

    Measured: 2, 4, 8 and 24 weeks after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing EVPOME (autogenous ex vivo produced oral mucosa equivalent) and POM (Palatal oral mucosa) in people with Disorder of Oral Mucous Membrane, run by Stephen E. Feinberg at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 2021. 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 United States. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Sep 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Increase in Zone (Width) of Keratinized Mucosa at Grafted Site (time frame: 2 and 4 weeks post surgical graft). 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 5 Sep 2021.
