About this study

Official title: Combination of Bone Marrow Concentrate and Iliac Cancellous Bone Graft in Alveolar Cleft Grafting: a Clinical & Radiographic Evaluation

The aim of this study will be to analyze the newly formed bone volume and density, 6 months after alveolar cleft grafting using iliac cancellous bone graft, with and without bone marrow concentrate.

Read the detailed description

Twelve patients with unilateral alveolar cleft will be enrolled in this randomized comparative study.

The patients will be divided into two groups, the control (group A) who received illiac cancellous bone graft and study group who received a combination of bone marrow concentrate and illiac cancellous bone graft (group B).

Cone Beam CT (CBCT) images will be done prior to surgery to asses preoperative alveolar defect volume. Six months postoperative CBCT images will be done and postoperative newly bone formed volume and density will be evaluated and bone formation ratio (BF%) will be calculated as follows: BF% = (formed volume/alveolar defect) × 100%.

Being tested
bone marrow concentrate alveolar cleft grafting, Autogenous alveolar grafting
Keywords
bone marrow concentrate, alveolar cleft, CBCT, Bone density, bone volume

What participants receive

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

  • bone marrow concentrate alveolar cleft graftingProcedure or surgery

    patients will undergo surgery to repair alveolar cleft with autogenous bone graft combined with bone marrow concentrate

  • Autogenous alveolar graftingProcedure or surgery

    patients will undergo surgery to repair alveolar cleft with autogenous bone graft

What is being measured

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

  1. bone volume

    V= (A1xT) + ( A2 xT) + …….+ (An xT) where: V= volume A= area T= thickness of the axial C.T slice N=number of slices

    Measured: six months postoperative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. bone density

    the average bone density will be measured from the CBCT

    Measured: six months postoperative

  2. bone formation ratio

    BF% = (formed volume/alveolar defect) × 100%.

    Measured: six months postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing bone marrow concentrate alveolar cleft grafting and Autogenous alveolar grafting in people with Alveolar Cleft Grafting, run by Fayoum University at 2 sites in Egypt.

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 2 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 7 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Egypt. 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?

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?

bone volume (time frame: six months postoperative). 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 NCT04414423, which also lists 3 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 7 Dec 2021.
