Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will look at the safety of using the study medicine for a long time. It will see if the germs get used to the medicine, making it not work as well, if it's used by people with gum disease for a long time.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Minocycline HCl microspheres
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the changes in populations of minocycline-resistant bacteria after long-term use of minocycline HCl microspheres, 1 mg in subjects with moderate-to-severe chronic periodontitis. This will be assessed through monitoring the total number and proportion of minocycline-resistant bacteria and the identity of minocycline-resistant species within a panel of 40 representative periodontal species in saliva and subgingival plaque.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Minocycline HCl microspheres

Minocycline HCl microspheres

Drug: Minocycline HCl microspheres
At Baseline and all interim visits, a single unit dose of 1mg minocycline HCl (with approximately 3mg PGLA) will be professionally administered subgingivally into periodontal pockets at each site exhibiting a PD ≥ 5mm.
Other Names:
  • minocycline
  • No Intervention: No drug intervention

    No drug intervention

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in Percent of Minocycline-Resistant Bacteria Using Bacterial Culture [from Baseline to Day 30 and Day 180]

      Percentage Change from Baseline is calculated as post-baseline percent minus baseline percent.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Micocycline-Resistance From Plaque Samples [Baseline, Day 30 and Day 180]

      Percentage of Subjects showing Micocycline-Resistance for each Species from Plaque Samples DNA Method: Plaque Sample Intent-to-Treat Subjects - we report average of percentage for 4 plaque samples

    2. Micocycline-Resistance From Saliva Sample [Baseline, Day 30 and Day 180]

      Percentage of Subjects Showing Micocycline-Resistance for each Species from Saliva Sample DNA Method: Saliva Sample Intent-to-treat Subjects
