Trial summary

The aim of this study is develop recipes containing CHO less than ICR, prepare new snacks alternatives that could be consumed without need for additional insulin doses, and evaluate the glycemic and insulinemic responses of these recipes. A randomized crossover trial will include 15 healthy adults aged 19-30 years. Read more about this study

About this study

The aim of this study is develop recipes containing CHO less than ICR, prepare new snacks alternatives that could be consumed without need for additional insulin doses, and evaluate the glycemic and insulinemic responses of these recipes. A randomized crossover trial will include 15 healthy adults aged 19-30 years. All participants will consume 3 test foods and reference food (glucose solution, 2 times) in a random order. Blood samples will be collected at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min. Glucose and insulin analyzes will be performed from blood samples. The results of these time points will be marked on the chart and the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) will be calculated for both glucose and insulin.

What participants receive

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

  • Blueberry CakeOther

    Blueberry cake containing 25 g available CHO will be served to the participants after 10-hours fasting and asked to consume it within 15 minutes, along with 250 ml of water. Taking the first bite from test food will be considered as 0 min. Blood samples will be collected at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

  • Snacks with CheeseOther

    Snacks with cheese containing 25 g available CHO will be served to the participants after 10-hours fasting and asked to consume it within 15 minutes, along with 250 ml of water. Taking the first bite from test food will be considered as 0 min. Blood samples will be collected at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

  • Spicy CrackersOther

    Spicy crackers containing 25 g available CHO will be served to the participants after 10-hours fasting and asked to consume it within 15 minutes, along with 250 ml of water. Taking the first bite from test food will be considered as 0 min. Blood samples will be collected at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

  • Glucose Solution First RepeatOther

    The glucose solution will be prepared by dissolving 25 g of glucose in 250 ml of water. Participants consume the glucose solution within 15 minutes after 10-hours fasting. Blood samples will be collect at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

  • Glucose Solution Second RepeatOther

    The glucose solution will be prepared by dissolving 25 g of glucose in 250 ml of water. Participants consume the glucose solution within 15 minutes after 10-hours fasting. Blood samples will be collect at time points 0,15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 min.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postprandial glucose response

    Postprandial glucose response will be quantified as incremental area under the curve (iAUC) (mg/dL x minutes), which is calculated according to the trapezoidal rule by using blood glucose values at time points 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes.

    Measured: two hours postprandial period

  2. Postprandial insulin response

    Postprandial insulin response will be quantified as incremental area under the curve (iAUC) (mg/dL x minutes), which is calculated according to the trapezoidal rule by using blood glucose values at time points 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes.

    Measured: two hours postprandial period

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 9 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 9 Feb 2021. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Postprandial glucose response (time frame: two hours postprandial period). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Feb 2021.
