About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind Trial to Evaluate the Effect of a Functional Bioactive Supplement Associated With a Hypocaloric Equilibrated Diet to Treatment of Obese and Overweight Individuals

The purpose this study is to evaluate the therapeutic effect of a functional bioactive supplement associated with a hypocaloric equilibrated diet to treat obese and overweight individuals. The functional bioactive supplement, containing antioxidant extracted from rosemary, oligosaccharides derived from lactulose and bioactive peptides, was developed to satiety control, improves of anti-inflammatory response and antioxidant defense mechanisms as well as to weight loss.

Read the detailed description

A randomized, parallel, double-blind, controlled was performed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of a functional bioactive supplement associated with a hypocaloric equilibrated diet to treatment of obesity and overweight.

Women aged between 18 and 65 years with obesity and overweight diagnosis (IMC >25<35 kg/m2) were included in the study. The clinical trial will be performed in the Clinical Nutrition Department of La Paz University Hospital, in Madrid. All of the volunteers will receive a dietetic treatment with 1500 Kcal/day and physical activity recommendations during the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in body composition

    Clinical response - changes in body composition: weight, waist circumference and Absorptiometry, Dual X-Ray.The primary outcome result measurement was the lost weight, changes in body composition

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Life style and health status: Life style and physical activity questionnaire

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

  2. Genetic analysis

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

  3. Metabolomic analyses

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

  4. Endothelial function markers

    Endothelial function markers: eNOS, VCAM-1, PAI1 and blood pressure

    Measured: Week 0 y Week 12

  5. Satiety hormones

    Satiety hormones: ghrelin, GLP-1; Leptin; adiponectin and NPY

    Measured: Week 0 y Week 12

  6. Inflammatory markers

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

  7. Glucose Metabolism

    Glucose Metabolism: glucose, basal insulin, HbA1c (in diabetic patients), HOMA index (glycemic insulin sensitivity index was calculated using the formula: HOMA-IR = fasting glucose (mmol/l)/fasting immunoreactive insulin (mU/ml)/22•5)

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

  8. Lipid profile: Cholesterol

    Lipid profile: Cholesterol, LDL-Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Functional bioactive supplement in people with Obesity and Overweight, run by Instituto de Investigación Hospital Universitario La Paz at 1 site in Spain.

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 16 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 20 Nov 2015. 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 Spain. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Changes in body composition (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 20 Nov 2015.
