About this study

A prospective, mono-center, interventional study evaluating the effect of one year initial care by hygieno-dietary advices with or without Phlebotomy on glycemia after at least 5 years in Patients with dysmetabolic iron overload syndrome

Read the detailed description

Dysmetabolic iron overload syndrome (DIOS) is defined by a slight iron overload associated to features of the metabolic syndrome. This is a frequent condition that parallels the increasing prevalence of non alcoholic steato hepatitis. The role of iron overload on insulin sensitivity is described in large cohorts study, with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in patients with increased serum ferritin, and in vitro where iron load alters key regulators of lipid and glucose metabolism.

In patient with DIOS, improving diet and lifestyle is a major goal, albeit it does not allow to lower body iron stores. Therefore the role of bloodletting in this setting was raised. Several low quality studies suggested a beneficial effect of bloodletting on insulin resistance. Our group demonstrated in a large multicenter randomized trial, the lack of beneficial effect of bloodletting over one year. Because this may be a too short period of time to demonstrate a positive effect we would like to assess the long term effect of iron depletion on insulin resistance and its clinical consequence.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), Clinical exam and Blood sample in people with Dysmetabolic Iron Overload Syndrome, run by Rennes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 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 17 Dec 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 France. 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?

Dosage of fasting blood glycemia after 5 years (time frame: Year 5). 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 Dec 2020.
