Trial summary

The purpose of this research is to understand how dietary fat is related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study tests the effect of different dietary fats on the level of fat in the blood and the particles that transport fat in the blood. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this research is to understand how dietary fat is related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study tests the effect of different dietary fats on the level of fat in the blood and the particles that transport fat in the blood. The researchers want to know if these particles change after eating meals made with different fats.

Read the detailed description

The overall objective of this work is to discover how the lipidomic composition of postprandial lipoproteins responds to dietary fats of differing fatty acid composition by comparing meals rich in saturated fatty acid (SFA) (from dairy cream) versus polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (from soybean oil). The information derived from these studies will provide mechanistic insight into postprandial lipid metabolism and will support efforts to identify optimal dietary oil intakes for people.

What participants receive

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

  • Heavy CreamOther

    Participants will receive a meal in the form of a fruit-containing shake containing 30 g of fat prepared with heavy cream.

  • Soybean OilOther

    Participants will receive a meal in the form of a fruit-containing shake containing 30 g of fat prepared with soybean oil.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in lipidomic composition of plasma post-prandial lipoproteins as assessed by incremental area under the curve (iAUC)

    Measured: 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post meal intake

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Heavy Cream and Soybean Oil in people with Overweight, run by USDA Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center at 1 site in United States.

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 14 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Aug 2022. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: PI will be retiring from the Center. Research will not continue with a new PI.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Change in lipidomic composition of plasma post-prandial lipoproteins as assessed by incremental area under the curve (iAUC) (time frame: 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post meal intake). 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 4 Aug 2022.
