Trial summary

So far, the liver has been the main target for cholesterol elimination. However, several recent studies performed in mice have described a new route of cholesterol excretion, the Trans-Intestinal Cholesterol Excretion or TICE. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: In Vivo TICE (TransIntestinal Cholesterol Excretion) Measurement in Bile Duct Diverted Patients

So far, the liver has been the main target for cholesterol elimination. However, several recent studies performed in mice have described a new route of cholesterol excretion, the Trans-Intestinal Cholesterol Excretion or TICE. TICE allows direct elimination of plasma cholesterol in the feces directly via the intestine. Until now, only indirect evidence suggests that TICE is also active in humans, the goal of this proof of concept study is to provide the first proof of its existence in humans by using stable isotopes in patients with bile duct diversion.

What participants receive

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

  • Intravenous injection of deuterated cholesterol diluted in intralipid 20%Other

    At day 0, bile diverted patients will receive an intravenous injection of deuterated cholesterol diluted in intralipid 20%. The plasma, biliary and fecal content of deuterated cholesterol will be measured, by mass spectrometry, at 24, 48 and 72 hours after the initial input.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intravenous injection of deuterated cholesterol diluted in intralipid 20% in people with Occlusion of Bile Duct With an External Bile Diversion., run by Nantes University Hospital 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 1 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Oct 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Bertrand CARIOU, Professor (+33 (0)2 53 48 27 07, bertrand.cariou@univ-nantes.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measuring trans-intestinal cholesterol excretion in vivo in bile diverted patients (time frame: Day 3). 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 NCT01958216, 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 Oct 2013.
