Trial summary

Postprandial increases in the levels of atherogenic chylomicron remnant lipoprotein particles have long been considered a presumable risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis with time, also in normolipidemic subjects. apoB-48 (Chylomicron) in blood is a specific marker for intestinal derived lipoproteins.

About this study

Official title: ApoB48IC2 Metabolism in Plasma and Interstitial Fluid

Postprandial increases in the levels of atherogenic chylomicron remnant lipoprotein particles have long been considered a presumable risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis with time, also in normolipidemic subjects. apoB-48 (Chylomicron) in blood is a specific marker for intestinal derived lipoproteins. Specific aim: To determine if apoB-48 containing lipoproteins may appear in IC in the postprandial state after a standard meal and investigate the effect fasting and feeding have on levels of lipids, apolipoproteins and the cholesterol component of lipoproteins in IF and plasma.

Methodology: Intercellular fluid will be collected using the cup technique. IF will be collected in intervals corresponding to different periods after food intake. The IF from these different occasions will then be analysed and compared using FPLC and Elisa.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Karolinska University Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

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 2 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 27 Feb 2023. 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 Sweden. 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?

ApoB48 levels in blood and interstitial fluid (time frame: 7 hours). 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 27 Feb 2023.
