MEDICAL DEVICE:

Class III: Root canal sealer Dose: not applicable Application : one single time

DEVELOPMENTAL PHASE: not applicable (medical device class III)

Clinical Trial Description

METHODOLOGY:

This study is performed only in adults who required a non-surgical root canal obturation. The studied indication is the root canal sealing.

This multi-centre and open-label study comprises two groups corresponding to tested root canal sealer (a reference product and investigational product). Randomization is required.

Investigational product that is a dental cement based on biosilicate technology (PA0903) will be applied with lateral compaction or single cone technique. On the contrary, reference product that is a zinc oxide-eugenol used in dental practice (Pulp Canal Sealer) will be applied with a single wave technique.

Study start: 01/12/11

Inclusion period: 24 months

Study duration: 2 years after the end of inclusion period

OBJECTIVES: The trial objective is to illustrate the clinical and radiographic outcome of PA0903 in the described indication.

Primary objectives:

The primary objective is to evaluate: clinical and radiographic outcome of root canal treatment at two years when using PA0903 as an endodontic sealer with gutta-percha. The success rate is defined as no pain (score of 0 at the VAS scale) and absence or decrease in the size of LEO (fulfilment of Strindberg's criteria). If a pre-existing lesion, the size decrease associated with normal contours, width and structure of the periodontal margines is considered as success. All cases in which lesion increases or is stabilized after 2 years were judged as unsuccessful . Moreover, all cases in which Strindberg's criteria if they are suitable were not fulfilled were judged as unsuccessful. A follow-up of two years is described as the predictive time of success.

Secondary objective:

The secondary objectives are to evaluate the following criteria and in an indicative way, to compare them between patients receiving the PA0903 and those receiving the reference product:

• The success rate at each time point and also the components of this composite variable (i.e. pain and Healing process for total class (vital teeth and necrotic teeth) of endodontic status of teeth).

In case of pre-existing LEO associated with necrotic teeth, size of LEO and suitable Strindgberg's criteria will be used to judge the outcomes of the root canal therapy as described below :

At visit 2 (6 months) treatment is considered successful when LEO is stable or decreased in comparison with V0 associated with Strindberg's criteria suitable.

At V3 (1 year), treatment is considered successful when LEO is decreased in comparison with V2 associated with Strindberg's criteria suitable.

• the Healing process associated with PA0903 application in each endodontic status

• the handling, consistency and physical characteristics of PA0903

• the longevity and safety of the product associated with PA0903 after two years.

TRIAL POPULATION AND NUMBER OF PATIENTS: about 60 patients will have to be included in the study, 20 by center with a ratio 2 (PA0903): 1 (reference). Adults will be included without gender distinction.

Coordinating center Endodotontic service of Pitié Salpétrière Pitié Salpétrière Hospital 75634 Paris Cedex 13 France

DURATION OF TREATMENT:

The product is applied on D0 (inclusion) of the study. The follow-up period includes 2 years with 4 visits: Visit 1(Week 2), Visit 2 (Month 6), Visit 3 (Year 1) and Visit 4 (Year 2). ;
