What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma concentrations of selected phenolic acids

    Measured: up to 30 hrs

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. plasma concentration of selected flavonoid metabolites

    Measured: up to 30 hrs

  2. Identification of unknown phenolic acids (metabolites of black tea) in plasma

    It is still largely unknown which metabolites are formed in-vivo after black tea ingestions and circulating in human plasma. Untargeted profiling using LC-MS of plasma samples will be used to identify yet unknown polyphenols / phenolics and their conjugates in plasma and thus extent the hit-list of known metabolites in circulation after black tea consumption

    Measured: up to 30 hrs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing hot water and Black tea and phenolic acids in people with Cardiovascular Diseases, run by Unilever R&D 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 Aug 2013. 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?

Plasma concentrations of selected phenolic acids (time frame: up to 30 hrs). 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 NCT01533857, 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 Aug 2013.
