Effect of Arestin-Enhanced SRP on Periodontal and Glycemic Outcomes in Diabetics
NCT07298057 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory disease that exacerbates systemic inflammation and poses challenges for glycemic control in diabetic patients. While scaling and root planing (SRP) remains the cornerstone of periodontal therapy, adjunctive treatments such as Arestin (minocycline microspheres) have shown promise in enhancing clinical outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the impact of adding Arestin to SRP on periodontal pocket closure, glycemic control, and systemic inflammation in diabetic patients with periodontitis.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07298057
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07298057 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Early Phase 1, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 42 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Case Western Reserve University, which has 172 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Periodontitis, Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which local antibiotic application of topical minocycline is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07298057 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Ohio. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
