About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of Periodontal Regeneration Using Vitamin A Added to PRF in Comparison to PRF Alone in Treatment of Intra-bony Defects: Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Will the addition of vitamin A (Retinol) to PRF add more periodontal regenerative value in the treatment of intra-bony defects compared to PRF alone, clinically?

Read the detailed description

Vitamin A has been extensively studied for its role in bone health. Vitamin A can be consumed in two forms, i.e., preformed retinol and pro-vitamin A. Preformed retinol is often found in food originated from animals, such as dairy, liver and eggs. Provitamin A, such as alpha (α)-carotene, beta (β)-carotene orβ-cryptoxanthin, are commonly found in plant-based food, such as fruits and vegetables (Toti et al., 2018). At certain concentrations, it has been proven to enhance the pluripotency of periodontal cells for regeneration (Fawzy El-Sayed, Hein and Dörfer, 2019).

Yet, to the best of our knowledge no clinical trials have evaluated the effect of Vitamin A added to PRF in the regeneration of intra-bony defects. This study is to fill the gap of knowledge.

Being tested
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF), Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Retinol

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiographic linear defect depth

    Measured as the depth of intra-osseous defect from the alveolar crest to the defect base (E et al., 2004)

    Measured: 6 Month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Clinical attachment level

    clinical attachment level measured in mm. using williams graduated probe(SP, 1967)

    Measured: 6 Month

  2. Probing pocket depth

    Measuring probing depth in mm using William's graduated Periodontal probe (SP, 1967)

    Measured: 6 Month

  3. Radiographic defect bone density

    Bone density will be measured using Digital Radiographs using ImageJ software (B et al., 2019)

    Measured: 6 MOnth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Retinol in people with Intrabony Periodontal Defect, run by Cairo 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 7 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 17 Mar 2022. 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 Abdallah H. Mostafa, M.Sc. (+2001005682509, dr.abdallah.hassan@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiographic linear defect depth (time frame: 6 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 17 Mar 2022.
