Read the detailed description

French overweight (BMI > 27) and obese people (BMI > 30 kg/m2, N=50) will be submitted to a low calorie diet (1200 Kcal) for 8 weeks. This type of intervention is know to modify the metabolic phenotype and expected to change the gut microbiota. Nutritional interventions are planned for 6 months, each subject being studied before (base line), after the intervention (8 weeks) and 2 months after the low calorie diet has stopped and a diet of weight maintenance will be provided. This protocol will be implemented in the nutrition department of the Pitié Salpétrière Hospital in Paris, within the Centre de Recherche en Nutrition Humaine d'Ile-de-France, where patients will be followed on the clinical, biological and histological levels. Evaluation will include medical history, physical, and nutritional evaluations. They will be excluded of the protocol if they had evidence of acute or chronic inflammatory disease, infectious diseases, cancer and/or known alcohol consumption (> 20g per day), as well as other causes of liver, kidney or heart diseases. Physical evaluation will include weight, height, measures of waist/hip ratio, measure of blood pressure. At each time point, body composition will be measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry performed with a total body scanner (Hologic QDR 2500 densitometer). Resting metabolic rate will be evaluated after a one-hour resting period in supine position. Oxygen consumption (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2), monitored over 30 min by using an open-circuit ventilated-canopy system (Deltatrac II monitor, Datex Instrumentarium Corp., Helsinki, Finland) calibrated with a reference gas. Blood samples will be obtained systematically for biological parameters including lipids (cholesterol, HDL-Chol, TG), insulin and glucose values and OGTT (enabling the determination of insulin sensitivity parameters, adipokines and inflammatory parameters such as leptin, adiponectin, IL-6, TNF alpha, SAA, hsCRP. Serum will be kept for all supplementary measures. The histopathological evaluation of subcutaneous adipose tissue will be performed to evaluate the adipocyte size and the degree of tissue inflammation. Stools samples will be collected for metagenomic studies.

In addition, blood, urine and fecal water samples will be collected and frozen for subsequent metabonomic analysis, and fecal samples for metaproteomic assessment of the microbiota.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Caloric transitionOther

    6 week low calorie diet followed by 6 week stabilization period

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. weight loss

  2. intestinal microbiota genes

    identify new intestinal microbiota at basal levels and follow their evolution during the dietary program by using a sequence based method (SOLiD™ System: a massively sequencing platform).

  3. Body fat mass

    using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry performed with a total body scanner (Hologic QDR 2500 densitometer)

  4. Food intake

    using 7 day dietary records at each time point

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. plasma glucose

  2. adipose tissue genes

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Mar 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

weight loss. The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01314690, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 14 Mar 2011.
