About this study

Official title: Platelet Rich Fibrin/Biphasic Calcium Phosphate Impairs Osteoclasts Differentiation and Promotes Apoptosis by the Intrinsic Mitochondrial Pathway in Chronic Periodontitis

The present study is an effort to investigate the hypothesis that Platelet Rich Fibrin/Biphasic Calcium Phosphate may play a role in inhibiting osteoclasts differentiation and in bone loss.

Read the detailed description

Study design

Fifty-five individuals from a suburban population were recruited. Out of them, 5 individuals refused to participate in the study. Finally, 50 participants were selected and divided into two groups, control group [Healthy individuals]: 25 Males/Females, aged 25 to 35 years and test group [Chronic periodontitis patients]: 25 Males/Females aged 30 to 45 years.

Demographic variables and periodontal parameters were measured in both the groups.The investigators explored the effect of Platelet rich fibrin (PRF)/Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) on differentiation and survival of osteoclasts obtained from peripheral blood of Chronic Periodontitis patients.

What participants receive

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

  • other : PRFOther

    Also called others : BCP, others : PRF/BCP combination

    mononuclear cells from the peripheral blood of chronic periodontitis patients were intervened with PRF, BCP and PRF/BCP combination

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Test groupExperimentalMononuclear cells isolated from the peripheral blood of 25 chronic periodontitis patients were interveened with 1ml/well preparation of Platelet rich fibrin(PRF), Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) and PRF and BCP combination in-vitro.

What is being measured

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

  1. probing pocket depth

    probing pocket dept was measured using Williams periodontal probe at base line

    Measured: base line

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Protein expression on osteoclast cells was estimated with BCP, PRF alone and BCP/PRF combination.

    Protein expression on cells was analyzed using Western blot in all the groups

    Measured: 24 hours from baseline

  2. The activity of caspase-3 in OCs.

    The activity of caspase-3 was seen in OCs in all the groups

    Measured: 24 hours from base line

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing other : PRF in people with Periodontal Disease and Periodontal Bone Loss, run by Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital.

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 8 inclusion and 4 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 26 Jul 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.

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?

probing pocket depth (time frame: base line). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03227367, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 26 Jul 2017.
