About this study

Official title: Pulse EnRiched Food and Exercise Clinical Trials (PERFECT Project): Part 1 - Acute Effects of Pulse Ingredients in Snack Products on Appetite, Blood Glucose, and Food Intake in Adults - Study 1

The objectives are to test the acute effects of different extruded pulse snacks on: 1) post-prandial blood glucose, insulin and appetite for two hours, and 2) food intake two hours following consumption of pulse products.

The investigators hypothesize that snack products containing pulse ingredients will lead to lower blood glucose, insulin, appetite and food intake responses compared to non-pulse snack products.

Being tested
Control, Small particle size pea flour, Large particle size pea flour, Lentil flour, Navy bean flour

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma Glucose and Insulin Concentrations

    Measured in blood using intravenous catheter at 12 time points and used to calculate area under curve (AUC). Glucose will be determined by automated methods using Abbot Spectrum CCX Analyzer, and Insulin will be measured by commercially available RIA kits (Composite measure)

    Measured: 0 - 200 min

  2. Food Intake

    Ad-libitum meal

    Measured: at 120 min

  3. Subjective Appetite

    Measured by VAS questionnaire at 12 time points used to calculate area under curve (AUC) (Composite measure)

    Measured: 0-200 min

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Palatability of treatments

    Measured by VAS questionnaire

    Measured: at 5 minutes

  2. Palatability of meal

    Measured by VAS questionnaire

    Measured: at 140 minutes

  3. Energy and Fatigue

    Measured by VAS questionnaire at 12 time points and use to calculate AUC. (Composite measure)

    Measured: 0-200 min

  4. Physical Comfort

    Measured by VAS questionnaire at 12 time points used to calculate area under curve (AUC). (Composite measure)

    Measured: 0-200 min

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Small particle size pea flour, Large particle size pea flour and Lentil flour in people with Diabetes Prevention and Obesity Prevention, run by University of Manitoba at 1 site in Canada.

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 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 23 Jan 2023. 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 Canada. 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?

Plasma Glucose and Insulin Concentrations (time frame: 0 - 200 min). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02402504, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2023.
