What is being measured

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

  1. Incorporation of orally administered 13C3 cholesterol into plasma cholesterol

    13C3 cholesterol, which is labeled with a stable isotope, will be administered orally. Blood samples will be taken every 4-6 hours for 72 hours for the measurement of stable isotopic enrichment in cholesterol using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The study has a dual purpose: to determine the optimum oral dose of isotope, and to determine the time of peak enrichment in plasma cholesterol.

    Measured: 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stable isotope of cholesterol in people with Lipid Metabolism, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jan 2016. 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 United States. 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?

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?

Incorporation of orally administered 13C3 cholesterol into plasma cholesterol (time frame: 72 hours). 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 7 Jan 2016.
