About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of regular low fat diary consumption on markers of cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic (cardiometabolic) health including body composition (% body fat, body weight), blood lipids, blood glucose, arterial compliance, blood pressure, insulin sensitivity and resting metabolic rate.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-centre, randomized, dietary intervention study of 12 months. A total of 100 overweight/obese individuals will be recruited, half recruited in Adelaide, South Australia and the other half from Manitoba, Canada. At baseline, subjects assigned to HD will be given standard serves of low fat dairy products (eg. 250mL milk, 200g yoghurt) on a regular basis for 6 months and asked to incorporate 4 serves/day into their diet. Volunteers randomized to the LD will be asked to continue with their habitual diet and consume less than 2 serves of dairy on a regular basis for 6 months. All participants will be asked to complete a food frequency questionnaire, physical activity diary, 3-day food record, and keep a record of dairy serves (food log) consumed each day. In total, participants will be asked to come to the centre 5 times throughout the study. However, the HD group will be asked to return to the centre every two weeks to receive diary product and return dairy record (food log). At baseline subjects will be asked to attend the Richardson Centre for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals (RCFFN) fasted for various measurements including: body weight, blood pressure, arterial compliance, dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan for measurement of body fat, abdominal fat and bone mineral density, waist and hip circumferences and provide a blood sample for the measurement of blood lipids, insulin and glucose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing High Dairy in people with Hyperlipidemia and Obesity, run by University of Manitoba at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 10 Jan 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 Canada. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

markers of metabolic (cardiometabolic) health (time frame: Six Months). 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 NCT01761955, 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 10 Jan 2013.
