About this study

Official title: Effects of Punicalagin and Hydroxytyrosol Mixture on Different Inflammatory Markers Related With Cardiovascular Disease: a Crossover Study in Healthy Middle-aged Volunteers

A crossover trial was carried out in healthy volunteers aged 45-70 years and BMI <30 kg/m2. Subjects consumed a Antioxidant Supplement (AS) containing 65 mg of punicalagin mixed with 3.3 mg of hydroxytyrosol 3 times daily or a Control Supplement (CS) with maltodextrin for an 8 wk each phase with 4-wk rest period. Supplementation order was randomly assigned and the consumption of derivative products of punicalagin and/or hydroxytyrosol restricted. The endothelial function parameters (brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), biochemical markers), inflammatory markers and nutritional status were evaluated before and after each phase. Previously a pilot study was completed with no placebo (n=30) to determinate the effective dose of Functional Supplement.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in the Inflammatory markers after 8 weeks treatment

    Inflammatory markers (Fibrinogen, gelsolin, thrombospondin, interleukin 6 and PCR) will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change in Oxidative Stress Parameters

    Parameters measured were: plasma antioxidant capacity (FRAP, ferric reducing antioxidant power) and lipidic peroxidation (TBARS, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay), oxidized LDL, paraoxonase 1, F2-isoprostanes. Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II.

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  2. Change in Glucose Metabolism

    Parameters measured were: glucose, basal insulin, HbA1c (in diabetic patients), HOMA (homeostasis model assessment ) index (glycemic insulin sensitivity index was calculated using the formula: HOMA-IR ( (homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance) = fasting glucose (mmol/l)/fasting immunoreactive insulin (mU/ml)/22•5).Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  3. Change in Lipid profile

    Parameters measured were: Cholesterol, LDL-Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides. Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  4. Change in Endothelial function

    Parameters measured were: Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), blood pressure, eNOS, vascular endothelial cell adhesion molecule -1 and p-selectin. Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  5. Change in Coagulation markers

    Parameters measured were: Prothrombin time and activity, INR. Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  6. Change in Anthropometric and body composition parameters

    Parameters measured were: Weight, Height and waist circumference, muscle mass percentage (MM%), fat mass percentage (FM%), free fat mass percentage(FM%). Will be measured at week 0 and 8 for phase I, and at week 12 and 20 for phase II

    Measured: 0, 8, 12 and 20 weeks

  7. Adverse effects

    Parameters measured were: transaminases and creatinine. Will be evaluated during all the study visits

    Measured: 0 to 20 weeks

  8. Adherence and Tolerance Parameters

    Parameters measured were: adherence and tolerance to the products. Will be evaluated during all study visits.

    Measured: 0 to 20 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing punicalagin and hydroxytyrosol mixture in people with Healthy, 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 2 inclusion and 15 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 23 Jan 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 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?

Change in the Inflammatory markers after 8 weeks treatment (time frame: 0, 8, 12 and 20 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 23 Jan 2014.
