About this study

Official title: Effect of Milk Ingredients on Glucose Regulation and Inflammation in Overweight Subjects

Background: Recent advances in science have established a fundamental role for low grade chronic inflammation in mediating all stages of most of the non-communicable diseases associated with ageing. Pro-inflammatory effects of hyperglycemia have been described. Dairy and its components are known to exert beneficial effects on postprandial hyperglycemia. This study investigates if dairy, normal and enriched, can reduce chronic inflammation via improvement in glucose regulation.

Objective: To compare the effect of a nutrient-enriched dairy drink on parameters of glucose regulation and postprandial inflammation with the effect of a standard milk drink, within a population of overweight, apparently healthy subjects.

Study design: The study is designed as a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled parallel trial during 7 weeks, during which the test and reference products will be consumed at home.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The difference in absolute change in fasting blood plasma concentration of glucose, insulin and IL-6, from baseline to endpoint, and the difference in postprandial response of plasma concentration of glucose, insulin and IL-6 at the end of the treatment period, between subjects consuming the test and reference product.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing nutrient-enriched milk and regular milk in people with Glucose Regulation and Low-grade Inflammation, run by NIZO Food Research at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 11 inclusion and 17 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 9 Sep 2014. 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 Netherlands. 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?

change in fasting blood glucose (time frame: baseline and 7 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 Sep 2014.
