Trial summary

Bone and muscle losses occur during ageing leading to increased risk of osteoporosis (there are more than 200 million people affected by osteoporosis worldwide), sarcopenia, loss of functionality and mobility. From around 45-50 years onwards, there is a progressive loss of muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of a Test Formula Milk Powder Combined With a Physical Activity Program on Mobility in Healthy Aging Subjects With Joint Discomfort

Bone and muscle losses occur during ageing leading to increased risk of osteoporosis (there are more than 200 million people affected by osteoporosis worldwide), sarcopenia, loss of functionality and mobility. From around 45-50 years onwards, there is a progressive loss of muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia). This is partially due to an impairment of muscle protein synthesis in response to dietary proteins. Insufficient dietary protein may contribute to age-related loss of lean body mass (LBM) and strength which ultimately affects body movement.

Key ingredients in selected investigational product are:Milk proteins, Calcium, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Glucosamine Sulfate, Zinc. They have effects to improve physical mobility and functionality. The investigators expect improved effects of a nutritional intervention combined with a physical activity program on mobility in healthy aging subjects with joint discomfort.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Nutrition intervention, test formulaDietary supplement

  • progressive physical activityBehavioural

    Tai Chi; dynamic strength training (knee extension, knee flexion, hip extension, side leg raise, plantar flexion); flexibility warm up and cool down (shoulder and upper arm stretch, hamstrings stretch, calf stretch, ankle stretch); aerobic fitness training(walking on even flat ground); balance training(standing on one foot; heel-to-toe walk; toe stand)

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in muscle extension isokinetic strength and 4 min speed step

    Change from baseline and muscle(quadriceps)extension isokinetic strength (peak torque) and 4 min speed step will be measured as the change of musculoskeletal functionality and mobitliy.

    Measured: Baseline and visit 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nutrition intervention, test formula and progressive physical activity in people with Joint Pain, run by Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN) at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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 28 Nov 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 China. 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?

Change from baseline in muscle extension isokinetic strength and 4 min speed step (time frame: Baseline and visit 7). 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 28 Nov 2016.
