Study groups in NCT02800707
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SucraloseActive comparatorParticipants will be asked to consume 180 mg/day of sucralose (in the form of capsules which is equivalent to three 12-oz cans of diet soda) for 14 days. According to the FDA, a 150 lb. person may consume up to 340 mg/day of sucralose (or 5.5 12-oz cans of sucralose-sweetened diet soda).
Receives: Other: Sucralose
SteviaActive comparatorParticipants will be asked to consume 180 mg/day of stevia (in the form of capsules which is equivalent to three 12-oz cans of diet soda) for 14 days. According to the FDA, a 150 lb. person may consume up to 800 mg/day of stevia (or about 12 cans of stevia-sweetened diet soda).
Receives: Other: Stevia

What is being measured

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

  1. 2-hour glucose

    An oral glucose tolerance test will be administered before and after consuming assigned sweetener to determine change in 2-hour glucose

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Gut microbiome

    Gut microbiota will be measured before and after consuming assigned sweetener to determine change in gut microbiota.

    Measured: 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sucralose and Stevia in people with Impaired Glucose Tolerance, run by University of Minnesota 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?

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 22 Mar 2018. 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?

2-hour glucose (time frame: 14 days). 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 22 Mar 2018.
