This study has been completed.
Sponsors and Collaborators: Ondine Research Laboratories
Loma Linda University
Information provided by: Ondine Research Laboratories
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00336661
  Purpose

This is a pivotal, prospective, randomized, blinded, multicenter study to evaluate two treatments of photodynamic disinfection in adults with chronic periodontal disease. The study is expected to enroll a total of up to 105 subjects.


Condition Intervention Phase
Periodontitis
Device: PerioWave
Phase III

U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Single Blind, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Blinded Study of Two Treatments of Photoactivated Disinfection With SRP Against One Treatment of Photoactivated Disinfection With SRP Against SRP Alone in the Treatment of Chronic Periodontitis

Further study details as provided by Ondine Research Laboratories:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Improvement in Clinical Attachment Level [ Time Frame: 12-weeks ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Improvement in Periodontal Pocket Depth [ Time Frame: 12-weeks ]
  • Improvement in Bleeding on Probing [ Time Frame: 12-weeks ]

Enrollment: 105
Study Start Date: January 2006
Study Completion Date: December 2006
Detailed Description:

The key question is whether scaling and root planing (SRP) followed by one or two doses of photodynamic disinfection using 0.01% MB result in improved outcomes that persist over time in adults with chronic periodontitis when compared with subjects with SRP alone. This study is meant to be pivotal in nature in the evaluation of photodynamic disinfection.

Primary Endpoint

The primary outcome of interest in this study is improvement in or stabilization of clinical attachment level. The clinical attachment level is the distance in mm from the cemento-enamel junction to the base of the sulcus or periodontal pocket as measured with a periodontal probe. In order to prevent study bias all endpoint measurements will be performed by a single examiner throughout the course of the study. A clinically significant difference will be considered as:

1) A measurement difference of 0.4 mm between treatment groups

Secondary Endpoints

The secondary objectives are to assess the effects of photodynamic disinfection on clinical symptoms including reductions in probing depth and decreases in bleeding on probing.

  8. The subject has a known allergy to Methylene Blue
  9. Has glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency by subject report
  10. The subject currently uses anti-coagulant therapy at therapeutic doses
