About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Hydrogen Peroxide Gel on Periodontal Ststus and Metabolic Control in Diabetic Patients: a Randomized Control Trial

Periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease characterized by loss of tooth supporting periodontal structures and alveolar bone. In the U.S. and worldwide, periodontitis is the major cause of tooth loss in adults.

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex disease that affects 13-15 million Americans and is associated with a variety of serious complications. T2DM is well established as a strong systemic risk factor for periodontitis. The severity and prevalence of periodontitis is much higher in patients with diabetes. This relationship may be bi-directional.

Read the detailed description

The primary treatment for periodontitis is scaling and root planing (SRP), which refers to the mechanical disruption and removal of bacteria and bacterial toxins from the affected tooth root surfaces. This procedure predictably reduces the bacterial load and produces marked improvement in clinical periodontal parameters, though not always complete resolution of the disease. Periodontal therapy may have some systemic benefits by reducing entry into the systemic circulation of pro inflammatory molecules and bacterial byproducts from the periodontal tissues. Since SRP alone is not always a completely effective treatment especially in advanced stages of periodontitis, a variety of adjunctive antimicrobial therapies such as local delivery of antimicrobial agents into periodontal pockets have been developed and employed to further reduce the bacterial load from periodontal pockets, with mixed results.

A recent innovation in the arena of local delivery antimicrobial agents is the PerioProtect ™ system (Perio Tray® and PerioGel® Perio Protect, St. Louis, MO). This consists of a closely fitting acrylic tray (similar to an athletic mouthguard), which is used to administer 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®, QNT Anderson, Bismarck, ND) deep into the periodontal pocket and retain the gel in place for a sufficient time period (15 minutes) to effectively reduce the periodontal bacterial load. Studies to date have shown that when PerioProtect ™ is used as adjunct to conventional SRP, this system produces additional benefits in reducing the severity of periodontal disease. However, no studies have yet investigated the use of PerioProtect ™ in patients with T2DM and periodontitis.

Based on the concept of a bi-directional relationship of diabetes and periodontitis, the investigators hypothesize that successful management of periodontal infection in diabetics with the use of PerioProtect ™ will not only improve periodontal status, but also result in improved metabolic control of T2DM.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of HbA1C measured in percentage.

    To investigate the efficacy of locally delivered 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®)as an adjunct to mechanical periodontal therapy on glycemic control in periodontitis patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Measured: Measured at baseline

  2. Change of HbA1C measured in percentage.

    To investigate the efficacy of locally delivered 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®)as an adjunct to mechanical periodontal therapy on glycemic control in periodontitis patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Measured: Measured at 3 months

  3. Change of HbA1C measured in percentage.

    To investigate the efficacy of locally delivered 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®)as an adjunct to mechanical periodontal therapy on glycemic control in periodontitis patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Measured: Measured at 6 months

  4. Change of HbA1C measured in percentage.

    To investigate the efficacy of locally delivered 1.7% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perio Gel®)as an adjunct to mechanical periodontal therapy on glycemic control in periodontitis patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Measured: Measured at 9 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in Probing Pocket Depth(mm)

    To determine if the use of PerioProtect ™ as an adjunct to mechanical therapy produces additional improvement in periodontal status as compared to conventional periodontal therapy (SRP) alone.

    Measured: Measured at baseline, 3, 6, 9months.

  2. Change in Bleeding On Probing(%)

    To determine if the use of PerioProtect ™ as an adjunct to mechanical therapy produces additional improvement in periodontal status as compared to conventional periodontal therapy (SRP) alone.

    Measured: Measured at baseline, 3, 6, 9months.

  3. Change in Plaque Index (0-3).

    To determine if the use of PerioProtect ™ as an adjunct to mechanical therapy produces additional improvement in periodontal status as compared to conventional periodontal therapy (SRP) alone.

    Measured: Measured at baseline, 3, 6, 9months.

  4. Change in Clinical attachment levels(mm).

    To determine if the use of PerioProtect ™ as an adjunct to mechanical therapy produces additional improvement in periodontal status as compared to conventional periodontal therapy (SRP) alone.

    Measured: Measured at baseline, 3, 6, 9months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing PerioProtect ™= plastic tray +1.7% hydrogen peroxide in people with Periodontitis and Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of Oklahoma.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2023. 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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change of HbA1C measured in percentage. (time frame: Measured at baseline). The study lists 4 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 22 Nov 2023.
