Gene-activated Matrix for Bone Tissue Repair in Maxillofacial Surgery

March 5, 2017 updated by: NextGen Company Limited

Clinical Trial of Safety and Efficacy of the Medical Item Collagen Plates With Hydroxyapol Inducing Angiogenesis, "Nukleostim", for Bone Tissue Regeneration

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of gene-activated matrix ("Nucleostim") for regeneration of bone tissue in maxillofacial area. Patients with congenital and acquired maxillofacial defects (sockets of extracted teeth, bone defects after injuries, surgeries, excision of benign neoplasms and pseudotumors, etc.) or alveolar bone atrophy will be included into the study.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

All patients enrolled into the study will receive standard surgery procedures indicated in accordance with medical care standards for the certain disease. Maxillofacial bone defects (formed after injuries, surgeries, excision of benign neoplasms and pseudotumors, teeth extraction, etc.) or areas of alveolar bone atrophy will be the filled by gene-activated matrix "Nucleostim". Safety and efficacy of implanted osteoplastic material will be assessed by physical examination, comprehensive laboratory tests, X-ray examination within 60 days after operation.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Gene-activated matrix "Nucleostim"
Implantation of gene-activated matrix "Nucleostim" into the bone defects or sites of bone atrophy
Gene-activated matrix "Nucleostim" is bone graft substitute consisting of collagen-hydroxyapatite composite scaffold and DNA plasmids with gene encoding vascular endothelial grothw factor (VEGF-A165) in concentration 100-120 ng/mg which is an active substance of gene-therapeutic drug "Neovasculgen"®.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quantity of newly-formed bone tissue in the field of gene-activated matrix implantation
Time Frame: 60 days

To determine the quantity of newly-formed bone tissue the morphometric parameters of regenerate will be measured on CT scan using special tools ("ROI", region of interest, etc.)

The morphometric parameters of bone regenerate include:

  • average density (in HU);
  • size (length, width, height) and volume.
60 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pain scores on the visual analog scale
Time Frame: 60 days
60 days
Surgical failure rate
Time Frame: 60 days
60 days
Adverse Events
Time Frame: 60 days
60 days
Edema scores on the 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale
Time Frame: 60
Level of edema at the surgical site will be assessed by physician using 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale.
