Study groups in NCT03113474
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Palatable-neutralExperimentalParticipants are exposed to palatable food in the first test session, and to the neutral food in the second test session.
Receives: Other: Food palatability

Receives: Other: Food palatability

What is being measured

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

  1. Endocannainoid levels

    To assess changes in endocannabinoid plasma levels prior to, during and after eating a palatable versus a neutral food

    Measured: prior to, during and two hours after eating

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pancreatic polypeptide (pg/ml)

    To assess changes in pancreatic polypeptide plasma levels prior to, during and after eating a palatable versus a neutral food

    Measured: prior to, during and two hours after eating

  2. Ghrelin (pg/ml)

    To assess changes in ghrelin plasma levels prior to, during and after eating a palatable versus a neutral food

    Measured: prior to, during and two hours after eating

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Food palatability in people with Obesity and Food Preferences, run by Wageningen University.

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 11 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 24 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Endocannainoid levels (time frame: prior to, during and two hours after eating). 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 24 May 2017.
