About this study

Official title: CTSA Utility of Modified Consent Forms in Clinical Research: Fraga Tea Study

Subjects enrolling into a nutrition study of the effects of tea on fat absorption will be randomized to receive either a standard informed consent document or a modified document that is shorter and more easily understood than the standard document. The hypothesis is that using a shorter form that is more easily understood and more visually simple will lead to greater subject satisfaction in the consent process and will not compromise subject comprehension of key study aspects. Consent for study inclusion has been waived by the IRB because informing subjects of the nature and process of the study would likely affect the findings, and both the standard and modified consent forms were approved for use in the nutrition study.

Who may be eligible to take part?

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Subject satisfaction (time frame: close of parent study). 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.
