About this study

Official title: Effect of Oleic Acid on Inflammation Markers and Blood Lipid Metabolites: A Randomised, Double-Blind, Crossover Study.

Rationale: The effect of positional distribution of dietary fatty acids on markers of inflammation and blood lipids metabolites on diets containing fatty acids such as oleic acid that are associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease is not widely studied.

Hypothesis: There would be difference detected in the concentrations of markers of inflammation and blood lipid metabolites in human volunteers fed controlled diets.

Study design: A randomized, double-blind, crossover clinical trial that involves 41 healthy volunteers. The volunteers will be selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. They will consume controlled diets for 5 weeks that provides 15% of energy from protein, 30% of energy from fat, and 55% of energy from carbohydrates. Volunteers will be assigned to each test diets which is cooked with novel olein, palm stearin or partially hydrogenated soybean oil in random order until all three diets has consumed by each person.

Main study parameters: LDL-cholesterol

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Novel Olein in people with Inflammation, run by Malaysia Palm Oil Board at 1 site in Malaysia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

LDL-cholesterol (time frame: 5 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jul 2008.
