Trial summary

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is associated with photosensitizing agents which promote the generation of free radicals and singlet oxygen, which are cytotoxic to certain bacteria. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Leukocyte and Platelet-rich Fibrin With Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy in Treatment of Aggressive Periodontitis Patients: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is associated with photosensitizing agents which promote the generation of free radicals and singlet oxygen, which are cytotoxic to certain bacteria. Leukocyte and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) has been used extensively in the treatment of intrabony defects and achieved excellent results. It acts as an immune regulation node with inflammation control abilities, including a slow continuous release of growth factors which stimulates periodontal regeneration. The aim of this study is to evaluate the adjunctive effects of aPDT with and without L-PRF in aggressive periodontitis patients.

Being tested
L-PRF with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy without L-PRF
Medical subject headings
Aggressive Periodontitis

What participants receive

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

  • L-PRF with antimicrobial photodynamic therapyProcedure or surgery

    Application of L-PRF with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in the defect

  • antimicrobial photodynamic therapy without L-PRFProcedure or surgery

    application of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy without L-PRF in the defect

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical evaluation and measurements of the defect in millimeters

    Changes in clinical measurements in millimeters after application of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy with and without L-PRF

    Measured: 9 months

  2. Radiographic evaluation and measurements of the defect in millimeters

    Changes in bone formation in millimeters after application of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy with and without L-PRF

    Measured: 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing L-PRF with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy and antimicrobial photodynamic therapy without L-PRF in people with L-PRF and Photodynamic Therapy, run by Kafrelsheikh University at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 11 Apr 2024. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Dalia R Issa, PhD (01007753636 ext. 002, dalia_rasheed@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical evaluation and measurements of the defect in millimeters (time frame: 9 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 11 Apr 2024.
