Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to compare two barrier membrane products, Cytoplast (dPTFE) and BioXclude (human amnion chorion allograft), for their relative efficacies in dental socket preservation procedures, both when the socket is filled and overfilled with freeze dried bone allograft (FDBA).

About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare two barrier membrane products, Cytoplast (dPTFE) and BioXclude (human amnion chorion allograft), for their relative efficacies in dental socket preservation procedures, both when the socket is filled and overfilled with freeze dried bone allograft (FDBA).

Read the detailed description

This single-blind, randomized clinical trial aims to compare two different, commercially available materials to assess their relative efficacies in socket preservation procedures after tooth extraction. Patients presenting with single teeth deemed clinically hopeless and treatment planned for removal in the normal course of clinical dentistry will be considered for this study. If eligible, a ridge/socket preservation procedure will be performed at the time of extraction. Periodontics residents will perform the procedure under the supervision of board certified staff. Patients will be randomized via concealed random number sequence into one of four groups, based on a combination of materials and graft placement techniques. Patients will be equally distributed into the following groups: (1) dense polytetrafluoroethylene (Cytoplast) (2) Cytoplast with additional buccal augmentation/onlay graft, (3) human amniotic-tissue derived membrane (BioXclude), and (4) BioXclude with additional buccal augmentation/onlay graft. All four treatment groups are consistent with the current standard of care, and this study seeks to compare techniques and materials as part of routine, clinical/periodontal therapy in order to determine superiority. Approximately 150 patients will be enrolled and distributed equally among the four groups. Any post-operative complications will be managed and documented during follow-up appointments at 1, 2 and 4 weeks. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) will be used as the primary assessment tool, and scans will be compared between a pre-operative baseline time point and a scan taken after 4 months of healing to prepare for implant placement. The primary dependent variables will be (1) percent of baseline alveolar ridge changes (both horizontal and vertical) and (2) whether or not the anticipated dental implant could be placed appropriately. Secondary outcomes include ease of use, perceptions of pain, complications, cost-effectiveness, and changes in keratinized tissue.

What is being measured

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

  1. Alveolar Ridge Width

    Alveolar ridge dimensional change (horizontal) from Cone beam CT

    Measured: from baseline to final cone beam CT scan (approximately 4 months)

  2. Alveolar Ridge Height

    Alveolar ridge dimensional change (vertical) from cone beam CT

    Measured: from baseline to final cone beam CT scan (approximately 4 months)

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Post-operative pain perception

    self-report by patient on visual analog scale

    Measured: 1 week after surgical extraction procedure

  2. Platform size of implant placed

    Whether or not the originally intended implant size could be placed

    Measured: Implant surgery, approximtely 4 months after baseline

  3. Keratinized tissue width (baseline)

    Measured: pre-op / baseline assessment (after randomization)(prior to time=0)

  4. Keratinized tissue width (final)

    Measured: from pre-op assessment at time of randomization to implant surgery (4 months)

  5. Elian classification (anticipated)

    Operators will report an anticipated socket preservation classification according to Elian 2007

    Measured: pre-op / baseline assessment (after randomization)(prior to time=0)

  6. Elian classification (actual)

    Operators will report the actual socket preservation classification according to Elian 2007

    Measured: intra-operative surgical finding (extraction surgery)(time=0)

  7. Buccal plate thickness

    intra-operative measurements, presence or absence of a dehiscence / fenestration

    Measured: intra-operative surgical finding (extraction surgery)(time = 0)

  8. Buccal plate fenestration

    determined at time of extraction surgery, and noted as a possible confounding variable

    Measured: intra-operative surgical finding (extraction surgery)(time = 0)

  9. Complications after surgery (infection)

    infection, determined by presence of purulence, lymphadenopathy and/or febrile status

    Measured: 0-4 months

  10. Complications after surgery (membrane exfoliation)

    dichotomous variable, presence or absence of the membrane for the duration of the study

    Measured: 0-4 months

  11. Peri-operative clinician's report (extraction difficulty)

    subjective extraction difficulty, as reported by the clinician

    Measured: intra-operative surgical finding (extraction surgery)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing dense polytetrafluoroethylene (dPTFE) membrane Cytoplast, human amniotic-tissue derived membrane BioXclude and Ridge Preservation with overlay graft in people with Loss of Teeth Due to Extraction, run by Eisenhower Army Medical Center 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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2017. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Alveolar Ridge Width (time frame: from baseline to final cone beam CT scan (approximately 4 months)). 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 7 Feb 2017.
