About this study

Official title: Impact of Polyphenols on Endothelial Function in Obstructive Sleep Apnea: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Endothelial dysfunction, an early marker of vascular disease has been demonstrated in OSA. Regular treatment of OSA by continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) improves endothelial function and is associated with a reduction in cardiovascular risk. Approximately 40% of patients with OSA are intolerant or insufficiently adherent to CPAP. Alternative treatments or adjuvants to the CPAP are needed.

The polyphenols have demonstrated their effectiveness in improving endothelial function in patients with CV disease. No randomized controlled studies have evaluated the impact of PPR on the endothelial dysfunction associated with OSAHS.

Read the detailed description

The endpoint is the change to one month of polyphenols treatment of the endothelial function measured by the index of hyperemic reactivity.

The secondary endpoints are changes at one month of supplementation with polyphenols of ambulatory blood pressure measurement in 24 hours (MAPA), micro-circulatory responsiveness, the speed of the pulse wave and biological measurements (lipid profile, blood glucose, fasting insulin, leptin, adiponectin, hs-CRP, 8-isoprostane levels and cellular origin of microparticles).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing one month polyphenols supplementation (600mg) in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by University Hospital, Angers.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 13 Nov 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact wojciech trzepizur, MD (+33(0) 214353695, wotrzepizur@chu-angers.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

endothelial function measured by the index of hyperemic reactivity (time frame: one month). 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 NCT01977924, 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 Nov 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
