Gene-activated Bone Substitute for Maxillofacial Bone Regeneration

May 5, 2019 updated by: Histograft Co., Ltd.

The Clinical Trial of the Safety and Efficacy of the Medical Device "Bone Substitute Based on Octacalcium Phosphate and Biologically Active Nucleic Acids for Bone Tissue Regeneration" (Nucleostim-VEGF)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the gene-activated bone substitute consisting of octacalcium phosphate and plasmid DNA encoding vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) for maxillofacial bone regeneration. The patients with congenital and acquired maxillofacial bone defects and alveolar ridge atrophy will be enrolled.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

All participants of the study will receive standard treatment according to the medical care standards for diseases and pathological conditions characterized by maxillofacial bone defects and/or alveolar ridge atrophy. Bone grafting procedures as part of the surgical treatment will be performed with the use of investigated medical device. The safety and efficacy of the implanted gene-activated bone substitute will be evaluated by clinical examination, comprehensive laboratory tests, and computer tomography within 6 months after surgery.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bone tissue formation in the field of gene-activated bone substitute implantation
Time Frame: 6 months

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

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

All together both measurements allow to determine "bone tissue formation" as a value derived from the presence of newly formed bone tissue and its volume correspondence with the quantity of the material implanted.

6 months
