Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Mar 2017 to primary completion in Oct 2017, 7 months.

Of 312 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Periodontal Diseases, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 28. This study's 7 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 331 studies reached it within 13 months; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 27.

What these dates mean

Start.: When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.: When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.: When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.: Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
