About this study

To investigate the effect of added sugar to bake beans on glycemic and insulinemic response.

Read the detailed description

There will be a total of 7 test session. Each session will last for 3 hours. At each test session, volunteers will be served with 7 test meals and blood will be collected. After an overnight fast, subjects will visit the research center. Two fasting capillary blood samples will be collected via fingerpick. Following the fasting samples, volunteers will consume the test meals. Further blood samples will be collected at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 minutes after the ingestion of test meal. These samples will be used to analyses for whole capillary blood glucose. At every 30 minute interval, samples will be collected for analysis of capillary plasma insulin.

Being tested
Glucose Reference 1, Glucose Reference 2, Glucose reference 3, Sucrose, Regular Bake beans in tomato sauce
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Obesity, Prediabetic State

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Glucose Reference 1, Glucose Reference 2 and Glucose reference 3 in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 and Obesity, run by Singapore Institute of Food and Biotechnology Innovation at 1 site in Singapore.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 Jul 2020. 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 Singapore. 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?

Glucose [ (time frame: Up to 180 minutes). 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 Jul 2020.
