About this study

Official title: Gingival Crevicular Fluid Levels of Protein Carbonyl Oxidative Stress Biomarker Following the Use of Locally Delivered Lycopene Antioxidants in Patients With Chronic Periodontitis - Randomized Clinical Trial

Effect of Locally Delivered Antioxidants as An Adjunct to Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy on GCF Level of Oxidative Stress Marker; Protein Carbonyl

Read the detailed description

The study was designed as a randomized controlled clinical trial. Total subjects selected were allocated into three study groups, Group I (Test group), Group II (Positive control group) and Group III (Negative control group). Group I: Included 8 patients with severe chronic periodontitis managed by Scaling and root planing and local delivery of lycopene loaded in solid lipid microparticles. Group II: Included 8 patients with severe chronic periodontitis managed by Scaling and root planing only. Group III: Included 8 patients with clinically healthy periodontium.

Protein carbonyl biomarker level and clinical parameters were assisted to evaluate the effect of lycopene as an adjunct to scaling and root planing.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. GCF level of protein carbonyl

    to assess GCF level of protein carbonyl following local delivery of sustained release form of lycopene as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP) in management of severe chronic periodontitis patients.

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Plaque index

    To assess changes in plaque index following local delivery of stained release form of lycopene.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Modified gingival index

    to assess changes in the gingival index following local delivery of sustained release form of lycopene.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Probing depth

    To assess probing depth following local delivery of stained release form of lycopene.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Clinical attachment loss

    To assess clinical attachment loss following local delivery of sustained release form of lycopene.

    Measured: 6 minths

  5. Radiographic changes

    to assess radiographic changes in the infrabony defects following local delivery of sustained release form of lycopene.

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Drug release

    to assess rate of lycopene release using high performance liquid chromatography technique (HPLC).

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Lycopene + SRP and SRP only in people with Chronic Periodontitis, run by Maie Sami tawfik.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 29 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

GCF level of protein carbonyl (time frame: 1 month). 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 29 Jun 2017.
