Trial Outcomes & Findings for To Evaluate the Efficacy of an Experimental Dissolvable Strip in Rapidly Relieving Dentinal Hypersensitivity (DH) (NCT NCT02937623)

NCT ID: NCT02937623

Last Updated: 2018-01-29

Results Overview

The examiner indicated the participant's response to the evaporative air stimulus, after the stimulation of each test tooth, using the Schiff Sensitivity Scale as follows: 0= Participant does not respond to air stimulation, 1= Participant responds to air stimulus but does not request discontinuation of stimulus, 2= Participant responds to air stimulus and requests discontinuation or moves from stimulus, 3= Participant responds to stimulus, considers stimulus to be painful and requests discontinuation of the stimulus. A reduction in Schiff Sensitivity score indicate improvement in sensitivity.

Participant Flow

All participants were recruited at a single center in USA.

A total of 135 participants were screened, out of which 126 were enrolled in study. 9 participants were screening failure so did not enrolled. Out of 126 enrolled participants, 120 participants were randomized. 6 participants were not randomized as 1 had adverse event, 3 withdrew from study before randomization \& 2 because of unspecified reasons.

Measure
Test Product: Dissolvable Polymer Strip Containing Novamin
In this arm, participants received an experimental dissolvable polymer strip containing 15 % weight/weight (w/w) calcium sodium phosphosilicate (Novamin). One strip was applied per test tooth topically by a suitably qualified member of the site staff. Each participant received 2 strips in total (as two test tooth were assessed per participant).
Reference Product: No Treatment/Product
In this arm, participants did not receive any treatment/product.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: At baseline (pre-treatment) and 10 minutes post-treatment: Day 1 of the study

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT) population included all participants who were randomized, received the study treatment at least once and provided at least one post-baseline assessment of efficacy.

The examiner indicated the participant's response to the evaporative air stimulus, after the stimulation of each test tooth, using the Schiff Sensitivity Scale as follows: 0= Participant does not respond to air stimulation, 1= Participant responds to air stimulus but does not request discontinuation of stimulus, 2= Participant responds to air stimulus and requests discontinuation or moves from stimulus, 3= Participant responds to stimulus, considers stimulus to be painful and requests discontinuation of the stimulus.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At Baseline (pre-treatment), 10 minutes, 2 hours and 4 hours post treatment: Day 1 of the study

Population: ITT population included all participants who were randomized, received the study treatment at least once and provided at least one post-baseline assessment of efficacy.

The examiner assessed the response to tactile sensitivity using a Yeaple probe which allowed application of a known force to the dentin surface, starting at 10g and rising in increments of 10g until the tactile threshold or maximum force has reached. The tactile threshold for each tooth was determined by asking the participant whether the sensation caused discomfort. The pressure setting at which the participant gave two consecutive 'yes' responses was recorded as the tactile threshold. The higher the tactile threshold, the less sensitive the tooth. At baseline (pre-treatment), the maximum force used was 20g; at all subsequent time points (post treatment), it was 80g.
