Trial summary

Healthy subjects will be enrolled in this study. Each subject will be scanned twice with F18-FP-CIT PET which is commercially available. F18-FP-CIT reflects dopamine transporter availability of striatum. Before each PET scan, subject will be injected either glucose or normal saline. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Dopamine Transporter in Glucose Loading of Healthy Subjects

Healthy subjects will be enrolled in this study. Each subject will be scanned twice with F18-FP-CIT PET which is commercially available. F18-FP-CIT reflects dopamine transporter availability of striatum. Before each PET scan, subject will be injected either glucose or normal saline. Therefore, PET scan will reflect the changes of dopamine transporter availability after the injection of glucose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Glucose injection/Normal saline injection in people with Obesity, run by Pusan National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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 20 Apr 2022. 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 South Korea. 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?

Specific binding ratio of dopamine transporter availabilitiy measured from PET scans (time frame: less than 1 month). 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 20 Apr 2022.
