About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Intestinal and Hepatic Parts in Fasting Postprandial Hypertriglyceridemia in Patients With or Without Metabolic Syndrome

Fasting and postprandial hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) depends on increased production of intestinal triglyceride rich lipoproteins in patients with isolated fasting hypertriglyceridemia.

The objective of this study is to compare the serum apoB48 rate after a standardized load test, among patients with isolated hypertriglyceridemia and patients with metabolic syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Two major studies in 2007 showed that the occurrence of myocardial infarction and death was more frequent in subjects with the highest "non-fasting" triglycerides level. This is an important point that supports the hypothesis that the development of atheromatous lesions also depends on "remnant" of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) products such as chylomicrons in the intestine. The elevation of triglycerides in postprandial period depends on the intestinal production of TRL that can be excessively increased as has been shown in diabetes. Accordingly, it is necessary to distinguish between hepatic and intestinal production of TRL in hypertriglyceridemic patients particularly during postprandial period. TRL contain a single molecule of apolipoprotein B (apoB), apoB100 when produced by the liver or apoB-48 when they are produced by the gut. It is well known that apo B100 is the lipoprotein of the VLDL which is increased in hypertriglyceridemia. But preliminary works showed that fasting concentrations of apoB48 were correlated with triglycerides in some hypertriglyceridemic patients. These results suggest an intestinal part in fasting triglycerides levels. It therefore appears that the liver and intestine contribute to hypertriglyceridemia, but the intestinal part is not established particularly in isolated hypertriglyceridemia. The detection of abnormalities in the production of LRT would consider intestinal bowel as a target organ for the initiation of specific lipid-lowering therapy.

What participants receive

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

  • Postprandial testOther

    Postprandial test : The preparation used for this test consists of a semi standardized liquid meal (400 ml energy drink Fresubin® 2 cal / ml, Fresenius Kabi, France), containing 800 kcal, 50% calories from carbohydrates, 15% in as protein, and 35% as lipid. The test meal will be performed in the morning during 6 hours (between 8:00 and 14:00) after 10 hours of fasting. This post prandial test is the same in the two study groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Apo B48 plasma concentration

    Area under the Apo B48 (g/L) plasma concentration (g/L) measured every hour for 6 hours versus time curve (AUC).

    Measured: every hour for 6 hours (day of sampling after postprandial test)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Apo B48 peak plasma concentration

    Apo B48 (g/L) peak plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: the highest level of Apo B48 during the test of 6 hours (day of sampling after postprandial test)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Postprandial test in people with Hypertriglyceridemia and Metabolic Syndrome, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 11 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 29 Sep 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 France. 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?

Apo B48 plasma concentration (time frame: every hour for 6 hours (day of sampling after postprandial test)). 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 NCT02898142, 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 29 Sep 2016.
