About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Treatment Regimen of ST266 in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Periodontitis

The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST266 will reduce pocket depth (PD) as an adjunctive to scaling and root planing (SRP) in subjects with moderate to severe periodontal disease.

Read the detailed description

The study is a 9-month, randomized, double-blind, parallel-design study of subjects with existing moderate to severe periodontal disease randomly assigned to one of three groups. The primary endpoint of PD change will be evaluated following 9 months of treatment. Subjects will be followed for 9 months for safety and radiographic evaluations.

Subjects who meet inclusion criteria will be randomized to one of three treatment groups.

Randomization will be stratified by site and smoker status (never smoked or quit smoking more than two years ago vs. has smoked within the last two years). Randomization will be blocked such that assignment to treatment groups both within sites and within smoker status will be approximately even (1:1:1). Treatment will be initiated after SRP.

All subjects will be evaluated at baseline and Days 1, 15, 30, 60, 90, 180, and 270.

What participants receive

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

  • ST266Biological

    1X ST266 applied in a dose of 20 microliters per tooth. Total daily dose will be less than 1 milliliter. ST266 will be applied directly to the marginal gingiva around each tooth (buccal and lingual).

  • Saline (0.9% NaCl)Drug

    Saline applied in a dose of 20 microliters per tooth. Total daily dose will be less than 1 milliliter. Saline will be applied directly to the marginal gingiva around each tooth (buccal and lingual).

Study groups in NCT02761993
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1Active comparatorGroup 1 received ST266 treatment daily on Days 1 through 5, 8 through 12, 22, and 30, and then monthly for 7 months (Days 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, and 240).
Receives: Biological: ST266
Group 2Active comparatorGroup 2 received ST266 treatment 2x/week (with at least 1 day between treatments) for the first 3 months, and then monthly for 5 months (Days 120, 150, 180, 210, and 240).
Receives: Biological: ST266
Group 3Placebo comparatorGroup 3 received commercially available sterile saline (0.9% sodium chloride) according to the same schedule as Group 1.
Receives: Drug: Saline (0.9% NaCl)

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Pocket Depth (PD) for Those Pockets ≥ 6 mm at Baseline

    The primary efficacy endpoint of this study is the change from baseline in the PD at 9 months (Day 270) for those pockets ≥6 mm at baseline.

    Measured: Baseline; 9 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes in Clinical Attachment Level (CAL)

    Change in Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) (the measurement of the position of the soft tissue in relation to the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) that is a fixed point, using probing depth and the distance from the gingival margin to the CEJ.) from baseline in CAL at 9 months (Day 270) in tooth sites with baseline PD ≥ 6mm.

    Measured: Baseline, 9 months

  2. Bleeding on Probing (BOP)

    A secondary efficacy endpoint of this study is change from baseline in BOP at 9 months (Day 270) with BOP for each subject calculated as the percentage of tooth sites in the whole mouth with BOP.

    Measured: Baseline and 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ST266 and Saline (0.9% NaCl) in people with Periodontal Disease, run by Noveome Biotherapeutics, formerly Stemnion at 6 sites 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 11 inclusion and 13 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 22 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 24 Jun 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?

Changes in Pocket Depth (PD) for Those Pockets ≥ 6 mm at Baseline (time frame: Baseline; 9 months). 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 22 Jul 2021.
