About this study

Official title: Lipids and Glucose Under Prospective Surveillance

Prospective, non-randomized cohort study to analyse genetic variations, dietary patterns, perceived stress and anxiety and early changes in lipid metabolism leading to the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes

Read the detailed description

The LUPS-study is a collaboration between Asklepios Clinics Hamburg GmbH and University Clinic Hamburg Eppendorf, Germany. This study is assessing a multitude of serum biomarkers, anthropometrics, dietary habits, physical activity, perceived stress along with genetic information from "healthy workers" (25-60years) to better understand phenotype-genotype associations leading to MetS and type 2 diabetes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metabolic Syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes, run by Asklepios proresearch at 2 sites in Germany.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Germany. 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. 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?

Metabolic Syndrome, Type 2 Diabetes (time frame: 10 years). 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 NCT01313156, 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 9 Aug 2019.
