What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), made from a patient's own blood, can improve gum and bone regeneration after standard periodontal surgery. Sixty adults with chronic gum disease and bone defects were randomly assigned to surgery alone or surgery plus PRF. Researchers measured pocket depth, attachment levels, and bone fill over six months to see if PRF offers extra healing benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, natural way to improve gum and bone healing after periodontal surgery, potentially reducing tooth loss.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with 60 participants. PRF may not provide significant extra benefit over standard surgery, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 18-65 years. Diagnosed with chronic periodontitis according to standard clinical criteria. Presence of periodontal intrabony defects suitable for surgical intervention. Probing pocket depth (PPD) ≥ 5 mm at the target site. Clinical attachment level (CAL) loss ≥ 3 mm at the target site. Good oral hygiene, with full-mouth plaque score \< 25%. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with systemic diseases that affect healing (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, immunodeficiency). Pregnant or lactating women. Current smokers or tobacco users. History of periodontal surgery at the target site within the last 12 months. Use of medications that interfere with wound healing (e.g., corticosteroids, bisphosphonates). Allergies or contraindications to local anesthetics or components used in the study. Active oral infections or untreated caries at or near the target site.
