About this study

Official title: INFLUENCE OF POLYPHENOLS ON OXIDATIVE STRESS IN HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS WITH HIGH METABOLISM RISK: RELATIONSHIP WITH THE MECHANISMS OF INSULIN RESISTANCE

Diet and nutrition play an essential role in the development and the clinical expression of the most common health problems. Overeating and obesity induce oxidative stress, which has been proposed to be a pathogenic mechanism leading to insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and associated cardiovascular complications. The main objective of the proposed research is to evaluate the beneficial effects of polyphenolic compounds derived from red grape marc extracts on the cascade of events leading from overeating to oxidative stress and insulin resistance. For that, we will study free radicals production, inflammatory markers, adipokines, mitochondrial function, insulin sensitivity and energy substrate utilization in healthy volunteers at risk for insulin resistance and T2D (1st degree relatives of T2D patients with associated overweight). These volunteers will be randomized between a placebo and a polyphenol group for 9 weeks. The demonstration of the beneficial effects of polyphenols will be sensitized by high-fructose feeding for the last 6 days of the protocol.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing polyphenol in people with Healthy Volunteers and Insulin Resistance, run by University Hospital, Montpellier at 1 site in France.

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 13 inclusion and 8 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 13 Feb 2012. 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. 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?

Peripheral insulin-sensitivity (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT01478841, 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 13 Feb 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
