Trial summary

Metabolic syndrome (Mets) is an assemblage of risk factors which can increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Green coffee extract (GCE) is derived from unroasted coffee beans and has substantial amounts of polyphenols primarily chlorogenic acids (CGA). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Green Coffee Extract Supplementation on Anthropometric Measurements, Glycemic Control, Blood Pressure, Lipid Profile

Metabolic syndrome (Mets) is an assemblage of risk factors which can increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Green coffee extract (GCE) is derived from unroasted coffee beans and has substantial amounts of polyphenols primarily chlorogenic acids (CGA). It has been shown that GCE and CGA can exert a positive influence over Mets components including blood pressure, blood glucose, inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance and blood lipids. Up to our knowledge no study has been conducted on humans in the field of GCA influences on Mets patients. Therefore, this study is planned to evaluate GCA supplementation effects on anthropometric measurements, glycemic control, blood pressure, lipid profile in patients with metabolic syndrome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing green coffee extract in people with Metabolic Syndrome, run by National Nutrition and Food Technology Institute at 1 site in Iran.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 Aug 2017. 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 Iran. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

fasting blood glucose (time frame: 8 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 28 Aug 2017.
