About this study

Official title: Assessing the Effect of Glucobrassicin-Rich Brussels Sprouts on the Metabolism of Deuterated Phenanthrene: Developing Food-Based Chemoprevention of Tobacco-Related Lung Cancer

To determine whether glucobrassicin-rich Brussels sprouts can favorably modify the metabolism of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon deuterated phenanthrene ([D10]phe) in current and former smokers

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be given 1 microgram of [D10]phe, and all urine will be collected for 6 h afterwards to quantify baseline levels of [D10]phenanthrene tetraol ([D10]pheT) and [D10]phenanthrols ([D10]HOP). Within 3 days of this baseline measurement, subjects will consume 200 micromoles of glucobrassicin in the form of raw Brussels sprouts (~200-300 grams) at the study center once daily for 7 consecutive days. Urine will be collected for 24 h after vegetable consumption on days 3 ± 1 and 6 of the feeding intervention for 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) quantification. On day 7 of the feeding intervention, a second dose of 1 microgram of [D10]phe will be administered at the study center after vegetable consumption, followed by another 6 h urine collection.

What participants receive

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

  • Brussel SproutsOther

    Subjects are given ~150 g of Brussels sprouts once daily for 7 consecutive days.

  • Deuterated PhenanthreneDrug

    Subjects are given 1 microgram of deuterated phenanthrene [D10]phe at baseline and after 7 days of Brussels sprout consumption. Urine is collected for 6 hours after each dose.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in [D10]phenanthrene tetraol

    Compare level of urinary [D10]phenanthrene tetraol before and after 7 days of Brussels sprout consumption.

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in [D10]phenanthrols

    Compare level of urinary [D10]phenanthrene phenanthrols before and after 7 days of Brussels sprout consumption.

    Measured: 7 days

  2. Change in [D10]phenanthrene tetraol:[D10]phenanthrol ratio

    Compare level of urinary [D10]phenanthrene phenanthrols before and after 7 days of Brussels sprout consumption.

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Brussel Sprouts and Deuterated Phenanthrene in people with Smoking, run by Masonic Cancer Center, 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?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 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 17 Feb 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Change in [D10]phenanthrene tetraol (time frame: 7 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 17 Feb 2023.
