Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 95 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Three groups of individuals will be recruited: those that are orally healthy and do not have any oral discomfort (N=58), those who have gingivitis (i.e., bleeding gums; N=58), and those who have periodontal disease (N=58). The groups will be matched by gender and smoking status. Women are predicted to account for 50% of the participants. The age distribution will be 18 to 95 years. Subjects will not be excluded based on race, gender, or ethnicity.

Who may be able to join

  • Males or females of all racial and ethnic groups over 18 years of age;
  • At least 20 erupted teeth and the ability to provide expectorated saliva;
  • Able and willing to comply with study requirements; and
  • Have full understanding of all elements of, and signature and dating of the written informed consent prior to the initiation of protocol specified procedures

Who cannot join

  • Prisoners or institutionalized individuals;
  • Persons with acute illness or infectious disease (as evidenced by fever, malaise, sore throat, recurrent cough, lymphadenopathy, swelling and/or a physician consultation);
  • Evidence of oral mucosal lesion or ulceration; or
  • Use of glucocorticoids or cyclooxygenase inhibitors (i.e. such as ibuprofen, Naprosyn(Aleve) or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) daily for the past two weeks.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to learn if a chair-side testing device will accurately measure levels of a salivary biomarker and thus indicate if a patient has periodontal health, gingivitis or periodontal disease.

Read the detailed description

Human subjects will participate in this cross-sectional study by attending a single visit where their mouth will be examined and saliva will be collected to help determine the accuracy of a POC salivary diagnostic device. The study population will consist of 174 persons (58 that are orally healthy and have no oral discomfort; 58 that have gingivitis; and 58 that have periodontitis. The device results (i.e., visual and optical scans) will be compared against the Luminex results by two methods: 1) the Bland-Altman procedure and 2) discriminant analysis that examines whether the concentration would correctly identify the subject as health or disease using a defined threshold for MMP-8 levels.

Three groups of individuals will be recruited: those that are orally healthy and do not have any oral discomfort (N=58), those who have gingivitis (i.e., bleeding gums; N=58), and those who have periodontal disease (N=58). The groups will be matched by gender and smoking status. Women are predicted to account for 50% of the participants. The age distribution will be 18 to 95 years. Subjects will not be excluded based on race, gender, or ethnicity.

What participants receive

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

  • Quik Check PDDevice

    The device is not an intervention. It is a device to determine if MMP-8 is present in a subjects saliva.

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence of MMP-8 in the subjects saliva using the Quik Check PD device

    Measured: One day. Subjects complete the study in 45 minutes.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Amount of MMP-8 in the subjects saliva sample using Luminex Analysis

    Measured: One day. Subjects complete the study in 45 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gingivitis and Periodontal Disease, run by Innovative Diagnostics Inc 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 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2016. 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.

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?

Presence of MMP-8 in the subjects saliva using the Quik Check PD device (time frame: One day. Subjects complete the study in 45 minutes.). 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 17 Aug 2016.
