Study: NCT04964466

Intervention type: BIOLOGICAL
Intervention: Amount of PDGF-BB in PRF preparation vs. GEM21
Description: The quantification will be performed at 60 minutes, 8 hours, 1 day, 3 days, and 10 days. The samples will each be placed in a cell incubator at 37°C to allow for growth factor release into a phosphate-buffered saline. At each desired time point assessment, 2 ml of the sample will be collected, frozen, and replaced with 2 ml of additional phosphate-buffered saline. The protein quantification will be carried out using ELISA assay according to manufacturer's protocol.

Intervention type: BIOLOGICAL
Intervention: Amount of PDGF-BB available in PRF + bone substitutes vs. rhPDGF-BB+ bone substitutes following preparation
Description: Growth factor release assessments will be made to determine the PDGF-BB present in the six prepared samples of the following: 1) PRF + mineralized freeze-dried corticocancellous allograft, 2) PRF + xenograft, and 3) PRF + B-TCP. Assessments will also be made for one sample of each of the following: 1) rhPDGF-BB + freeze-dried bone allograft, 2) rhPDGF-BB + xenograft, and 3) rhPDGF-BB+ B-TCP preparation. This assessment will be made at 60 minutes following the incorporation of the bone graft materials. During this time period, the samples will each be placed in a cell incubator at 37°C to allow for growth factor release into a phosphate-buffered saline. At 60 minutes after preparation, 2 ml of the sample will be collected, frozen, and replaced with 2 ml of additional phosphate-buffered saline. The protein quantification will be carried out using ELISA assay according to manufacturer's protocol.

Intervention type: BIOLOGICAL
Intervention: Release kinetics of PDGF-BB in PRF + bone substitutes vs. rhPDGF-BB + bone substitutes
Description: The release kinetics of PDGF-BB will be assessed for six preparations of each of following: 1) PRF+ mineralized freeze-dried corticocancellous allograft, 2) PRF + bone xenograft, and 3) PRF + B-TCP. The release kinetics of PDGF-BB will also be assessed for one preparations of each of following: 1) rhPDGF-BB + mineralized freeze-dried corticocancellous allograft, 2) rhPDGF-BB + bone xenograft, 3) rhPDGF-BB + TCP. The quantification will be performed at 60 minutes, 8 hours, 1 day, 3 days, and 10 days. The samples will each be placed in a cell incubator at 37°C to allow for growth factor release into a phosphate-buffered saline. At each desired time point assessment, 2 ml of the sample will be collected, frozen, and replaced with 2 ml of additional phosphate-buffered saline. The protein quantification will be carried out using ELISA assay according to manufacturer's protocol.
