About this study

The study aims at the identification and the quantification of urinary branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) by mass spectometry in healthy subjects and patients with insulin resistance and correlating urinary BCAAs with HOMA index.

Blood and urine levels of BCAAs will be correlated with HOMA index to assess and quantify insulin resistance.

Identification and quantification of urine BCAAs by an innovative method based on synthetic biology will also be performed.

Correlations between mass spectometry and the innovative detection method of BCAAs will be searched.

Read the detailed description

Blood and urine samples will be collected in 330 persons to assess BCAAs levels and correlate them with HOMA index.

Persons included will be:

110 persons with BMI>27 and HOMA >4 with no diabetes 110 persons with BMI>27 and HOMA < 4 with no diabetes 110 persons with BMI < 27 and HOMA <4 with no diabetes, including at least 50 men and 50 women, 30 aged 18-35, 30 aged 36-55, 30 aged 56-75.

Urine BCAAs will be measured by both mass spectrometry and the innovative method based on synthetic biology.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between urinary levels of BCAAs and HOMA index

    Measured: through study completion, an average of two years and a half

  2. Correlation between urine BCAAs levels measured by enzymatic method (artificial vesicles) and classic method

    Measured by enzymatic method (artificial vesicles) and classic method (standard LC-MS/MS)

    Measured: through study completion, an average of two years and a half

  3. Correlation between urine BCAAs levels measured by enzymatic method (artificial vesicles) and HOMA index

    Measured by enzymatic method (artificial vesicles) and HOMA index

    Measured: through study completion, an average of two years and a half

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing assessment of biomarkers of insulin resistance in people with Insulin Resistance, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 2 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 30 Oct 2024. 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?

Correlation between urinary levels of BCAAs and HOMA index (time frame: through study completion, an average of two years and a half). 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 30 Oct 2024.
