About this study

Official title: A Crossover Trial of Chitosan Oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) on Post Prandial Glucose Control in Subjects With Normal Blood Glucose, Impaired Fasting Glucose and Impaired Glucose Tolerance

It is well known that Chitosan oligosaccharide is low molecular weight and water soluble and chitosan oligosaccharide has been shown to reduce blood cholesterol and blood pressure, increase immunity, and enhance antitumor properties. the effect of chitosan oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) supplementation on glucose control in subjects with normal blood glucose, impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance.

Read the detailed description

A randomized, double-blinded, controlled, cross-over trial was conducted to verify the effects of chitosan oligosaccharide (GO2KA1). forty healthy male and female subjects aged 20-75 years with normal blood glucose, impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance were recruited. The subjects visited the research site twice over with a seven-day interval after an overnight fast at least 12 hr. On the screening visit, the participants were the 2-hr oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was conducted. And they were separated normal blood glucose, impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance. On the first visit, the participants were randomly assigned to consume a test or placebo product [test product: chitosan oligosaccharide powder 500mg (GO2KA1); placebo product: white egg powder 500mg] and ingested the assigned product. On the second visit, the participants consumed the other product that they did not eat on the first visit. On both visit day, the 2-hr oral sucrose tolerance test (OSTT) was conducted and started at 8:00 in the morning; venous blood samples were collected before (0 hr) and after ingestion (0.5, 1 and 2 hr) of the products.

What participants receive

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

  • Chitosan Oligosaccharide (GO2KA1)Dietary supplement

    Chitosan Oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) capsule was consumed within 15 min, and then 2-h oral sucrose tolerance test was conducted.

  • White eggDietary supplement

    White egg capsule was consumed within 15 min, and then 2-h oral sucrose tolerance test was conducted.

What is being measured

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

  1. Glucose levels

    Glucose level differences during the 2-hr oral sucrose tolerance test between White egg and chitosan oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) intak

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The areas under the curve (AUC) of glucose

    Glucose AUC differences between White egg and chitosan oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) intake

    Measured: 1 day of second visit (after finishing cross-over trial)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chitosan Oligosaccharide (GO2KA1) and White egg in people with Normal and Impaired Fasting Glucose, run by Yonsei University 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 3 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 28 Aug 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Glucose levels (time frame: 2 hours). 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 NCT03650023, 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 28 Aug 2018.
