Comparative Evaluation of Autologous PRF, 1% Alendronate and 1.2% Atorvastatin Gel in Treatment of 2/3-walled Intrabony Defects in Chronic Periodontitis Subjects: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The present study is designed as a single-centre, randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of autologous PRF, 1% alendronate (ALN) and 1.2% atorvastatin (ATV) gel placement with open flap debriedement in treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Background: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate which releases various growth factors that promote tissue regeneration. Alendronate and Atorvastatin are known to inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption and were proposed to have osteostimulative properties by causing osteoblast differentiation in vivo and in vitro as shown by an increase in matrix formation. The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of autologous PRF, 1% alendronate and 1.2% atorvastatin gel placement with open flap debriedement in treatment of intrabony defects in patients with chronic periodontitis.

Methods: 120 CP subjects with IBD ≥3 mm deep and probing depth (PD) ≥5 mm, following scaling and root planing (SRP), were categorized into four treatment groups: 1) OFD 2) OFD with PRF 3) OFD with 1% ALN gel and 4) OFD with 1.2% ATV gel. Clinical parameters including site specific plaque index (PI), modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI), probing depth (PD) and relative attachment level (RAL) as well as percentage radiographic intrabony defect depth reduction (DDR) were recorded at baseline before surgery and 9 months post-operatively.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

  • Phase 3

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

30 years to 50 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
defect depth reduction (DDR)
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 9 months
Change from baseline to 9 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
change in clinical attachment level (CAL)
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 9 months
Change from baseline to 9 months
change in probing pocket depths (PPD)
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 9 months
Change from baseline to 9 months
change in plaque index (PI)
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 9 months

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
