Trial summary

The hypothesis formulated is that 200 g of sardine on a weekly basis will have a favourable impact avoiding the natural development of the pathology due to changes in the biochemical profile, the anthropometrics, inflammatory markers, changes in gut microbiota populations, also in transcriptomics and metabolomics.

About this study

Official title: Sardine-enriched Diet for Prevention Type 2 Diabetes in Elderly and Prediabetic Population

The hypothesis formulated is that 200 g of sardine on a weekly basis will have a favourable impact avoiding the natural development of the pathology due to changes in the biochemical profile, the anthropometrics, inflammatory markers, changes in gut microbiota populations, also in transcriptomics and metabolomics.

What participants receive

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

  • SardineDietary supplement

    They received 200gr of canned sardine in olive oil per week (+a common T2D-preventive diet)

  • ControlDietary supplement

    They received a common T2D-preventive diet

What is being measured

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

  1. type 2 diabetes new onset

    incidence of new diagnosis of type 2 diabetes

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. adiponectin

    adiponectin levels

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  2. quantification of gut microbiota populations

    quantification by q-PCR

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  3. gene expression

    relative expression related genes by RT q-PCR (Real Time Quantitative Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction)

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  4. metabolomics study of dietary biomarkers and health biomarkers [(1) Fatty acyls, bile acids, steroids and lysoglycerophospholipids, (2) Glycerolipids, glycerophospholipids, sterol lipids and sphingolipids, (3) Amino acids.]

    endogenous metabolic profiles of serum samples will be studied using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). The same unit for measurements [log2 (fold change)]

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  5. glucose homeostasis

    glucose (mg/dl)

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  6. insulin levels

    insulin (mU/L)

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  7. HOMA-IR (homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance)

    insulin resistance index

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

  8. HOMA-B (homeostasis model assessment B cell function)

    B cella function

    Measured: Change from Baseline at 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sardine in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 and PreDiabetes, run by Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer at 1 site in Spain.

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 13 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 19 Jul 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 Spain. 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?

type 2 diabetes new onset (time frame: Change from Baseline at 12 months). 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 NCT03557541, 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 19 Jul 2018.
