Protocol summary

Study aim
The aim of the current study is to fabricate a customized biocompatible 3D printed scaffold and use in combination with BFP- SVF for human alveolar cleft reconstruction.
Design
Phase 1 of clinical trial with control group and one-sided blind with no randomization on 10 patients
Settings and conduct
Patients referred to Ayatollah Taleghani Hospital (Tehran, Iran) are selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. By an experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon and under general anesthesia the test patients are treated by the 3D printed customized scaffold with buccal fat pad micro graft, and the control patients by autogenous iliac bone graft. CBCT images obtained 6 months after the surgery are evaluated by an experienced blind radiologist.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The inclusion criteria include: 1. patient with alveolar or palatal cleft, 2. Defect size more than 2 cm3, 3. Soft tissue deficiency is not seen, 4. Maxillary sinus is not involved, 5. Dental dehiscence or fenestration is not seen. The exclusion criteria include: 1. Autoimmune or metabolic or systemic diseases 2. Peripheral vascular diseases, 3. Marble bone disease or osteoporosis, 4. Smoking or alcohol consumption, 5. Conditions which compromise wound healing process, 6. Being in breastfeeding or pregnancy.
Intervention groups
1. Alveolar cleft treated by the 3D printed composite scaffold with buccal fat pad micrograft 2. Alveolar cleft treated by autogenous iliac bone graft
Main outcome variables
In the previous cleft region, height, width, and length of the alveolar ridge, newly formed bone density, bone to construct contact are evaluated. In histologic analysis, the rate of new bone formation, the rate of fibrosis or necrosis (if seen), foreign body reaction (if seen), and the rate of remained scaffold are evaluated.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Gelatin (5-20 wt%)/ alginate (1-4 wt%)/ allograft (10-40 wt%) in combination with buccal fat pad micrograft. Gelatin with medical grade is purchased from Nitta Gelatin Co, China, Alginate with medical grade from KIMICA co, Japan, and allograft bone powder from Iranian Tissue Product company (RegenTM). Buccal fat pad micrograft is obtain by using a novel mechanical device, called Minceolip, was patented by our team in the Intellectual Property Office of Real Estate Registration Organization of Iran (Application Number 13985040003006638). Safety of Buccal fat pad micrograft was performed clinically according to a study approved by the Ethical Committee of the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (Approval number IR.SBMU.REC.1398.061), and Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT) with IRCT code 20181205041860N1 on September 26, 2019.
