About this study

Similar to the well publicized "grapefruit juice effect", ongoing studies are evaluating the interaction potential of other dietary substances on drug disposition. This study is designed to determine whether the mechanism underlying the enhancement of the anticoagulative effect of warfarin by cranberry juice is due to inhibition of warfarin metabolism by the juice. A secondary objective is to determine whether cranberry juice elicits a grapefruit juice-type interaction with midazolam.

Being tested
warfarin, vitamin K, midazolam

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

AUC (time frame: 0-96 hr). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01034124, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Dec 2009; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
